TWO CHILDREN LOST.
FOUND AFTER: SEARCH. INCIDENT AT HAMILTON. [FHOiI OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT.] HAMILTON, Tuesday. The disappearance of two young girls, Joyce Jarvis, .aged 11, the daughter of Mr. B. Jarvis, and Peggy Murray, aged 10, the daughter of Mr. H. Murray, of Anglesea Street, caused considerable alarm in the neighbourhood last evening. After leaving school the children wandered down toward the pumping station at the Waikato River, and when they failed to return at dusk a search party was organised. They were eventually found beneath a tree in a small patch of native bush beyond the pumping station at about nine o'clock, one of them being asleep.
As; the night proved very cold, it is fortunate the children wore discovered early.
