WILLY SCHWIEGERSHAUSEN.
According to the Free Press (Balclutha) this young German cyclist, who is engaged wheeling around the world, following the form of a figure 8, and circling each hemisphere, fell in love with a fair fraulein of Dunedin, and intends to return and ‘ take her for better or for worse.’ But if ‘ Willy ’ intends to win that wager of £1250. within the stipulated five years, he will need to hurry up. He only left Dunedin on Tuesday week, three clear months since he landed at the Bluff At that rate of progression it would take him fifteen years in place of five to accomplish his alleged task.
