THE KAIPARA SENSATION.
FINDING OF THE BOAT. Yesterday mornini, Inspector Cullen received a telegram from Constable Scott, stationed at Aratapu, to the effect that Captain Olsen's boat had been found at Fitzgerald's Beach, near the Port Albert River. The boat had evidently capsized through the main sheet having been made fast. When found the boat; was half buried in the sand. There were no signs of the body. The sea was too rough for the searchers to remain and look for the missing man. It seems only too clear that the unfortunate captain has been drowned.
