VESSEL DIVERTED TO NEW PLYMOUTH MASTER IN HOSPITAL Press Association NEW PLYMOUTH, Friday The illness of Captain A. T. Forsyth, of the Roosevelt Line steamer West Loquassuck, of 5,64 4 tons, caused a wireless message to be sent to Auckland stating that the ship would put in to the Manukau. A subsequent wireless advice informed the ship’s officers that the vessel could not cross the Manukau Bar so the West Loquassuck changed her course to New Plymouth and arrived tonight.
