. Tl)e White Star liner Suevic has had i somewhat’ eventful career, although she is by no means an old ship. In 1906 she came to grief on the Lizard Rocks. She was considerably damaged and was taken to Southampton in a disabled condition. It was found that it’ 1 would be necessary to entirely rebuild the bow portion of the vessel .(O'frhe contract for this work was taken;,on by Messrs. Harland and Wolff,' which firm, at their Belfast yards, 1 constructed an entirely new forward portion for the steamer. This wa S',towed from Belfast to Southampton,_ and after an eventful voyage, during which bad weather was encountered, it reached the latter port, where it was affixed to what was commonly supposed to be a total' wreck. The Suevic is a vessel of 12,531 tons, and is 550 feet long, 50 feet longer than the Corinthic. The Suevic has a valuable Australian cargo, and left Sydney on the 17th January last. She has three passengers, from Wellington, Mrs. Crouch and child, and Mrs. Thomas. T’V STUD NOTICES. v TO STAND the SEASON ST RATO RD And Surrounding Districts.
