SENT TO SYDNEY
HER FRIENDS ARE THERE YOUNG WOMAN NEBRIATE Most people are superstitious enough to think twice before starting a journey on a Friday, but pick out a Friday, 13th, from the calendar and scarcely one in a hundred will take, the double risk. Nevertheless Chrissie O’Flannaghan. a young lady from Erin’s Isle, will board the Marama on Friday, May 13. for Sydney. If she is superstitious she will have to do her best to forget about it, for she has no choice about leaving on that particular day. A little over a week ago she came before Mr. F. K. Hunt S.M., in the Police Court on a charge of insur!>orddination at the Pakatoa Inebriates' Home. Major Annie Gordon told the when the Irish girl appeared for sentence this morning that her application for discharge from the Island, in order to go to her friends in Sydney, had been granted. The first passenger steamer left on the 13th. “You’ve got to go by the first available boat, otherwise I’ll deal with you on this charge/’ said the Magistrate, and he convicted the girl and ordered her to come up for sentence if called on.
