TRAMPER MISSING
UNAVAILING SEARCH. By Telegraph—Press Association NELSON, May 16. Murray Coleman, aged 16, has been missing from a tramping party since yesterday in spite of the efforts of 50 searchers. Three boys set cut for Dun Mountain, via Aniseed Vailey. Late in the day it was decided to turn back owing to thick weather. Coleman, being the strongest walker, went ahead with the object of getting out of the bush before night and obtaining assistance for his companions if necessary. They became exhausted and decided to remain together for the night, being rescued by a search party early this morning. Large parties of searchers have been arranged for to-morrow.
