Burglars made a daring entry into a house at Orakei, Auckland, during the temporary absence of the inmates. The house was completely ransacked. It is thought the outer door was opened by means of a skeleton key, as there was no sign of the lock having been forced. Every room had been visited, and) the locks of drawers, boxes, cupboards, and a cellarette forced, while in some cases handles had been wrenched off.
