Ordered deportation on Thursday by Mr E. Page, S.M., Joseph Seddon was placed aboard the Rangitiki yesterday. Seddon arrived from San Francisco in December on the Maunganui, and attempted to commit suicide by throwing himself overboard. He had been in a mental hospital since then, and the medical opinion is that he was not sound in mind when he arrived in New Zealand.—Press Association message from Wellington.
