FISHING PARTY MISSING
GRAVE FEARS OF SAFETY, By Telegraph.—Press Association. Opotiki, June 7. Grave anxiety is felt for the safety of five men who left Kutarere on Friday on a fishing expedition to Raurimu Islands, intending to return on Sunday. So far nothing has been heard or seen of the party and the heavy sea, whipped by an easterly gale, is such as to cause the relations much anxiety. The names are Allen Abbot, John King, Harold Jones and two Maoris. The°only hope is that the boat is sheltering at the islands. It is too rough for a launch td search, but Captain Gash, of the motor-ship Otimai, now sheltering at Ohiwa, will endeavour to put to sea to-day in search of the little vessel.
