THE LADY ROBERTS
SUCESSFULLY REFLOATED. WILL BE TOWED TO FIJI. (Special to the Times). WELLINGTON, January 20. # Advice has been received that the steamer Lady Roberts, which was carried on to an inner reef as the outcome of the hurricane which swept Samoa on New Year’s Day, has now been refloated. The hull is reported as intact but sufficient damage has been done to necessitate the vessel’s being towed to Fiji for repairs and survey. The work of towing the Lady Roberts will probably be undertaken by the Hinemoa on her first trip to Niue.
