KOITERANGI TRAGEDY
SAIE OF GRAHAM'S FARM J ' INQUEST ON THE VICTIMS (0.c.) GREYMOUTH, Friday The 101-acre farm at Koiterangi owned by the late Eric Stanley Graham was sold this week, the purchaser being a settler whose holding is opposite the property. Mrs. Graham and her family .have moved from the district. A change of name has been adopted by her by deed poll registered in the Supreme Court. Although no date has been fixed for the inquest on the seven men who lost their lives at Koiterangi it is expected that it will be held at Hokitika this month. The proceedings are expected to last several days and witnesses will number at least 12. Mr. G. S. Ridley, the Education Board's agricultural instructor, who was wounded on the day a sergeant and two constables were shot dead when they called at Graham's house, is still an inmate of the Hokitika Hospital. His condition is improving, but it is expected that an operation will have to be performed.
