PROPOSED EXPEDITION
CANCELLATION LIKELY By Telegraph—Press Association DUNEDIN, December 18. A telegram from Christchurch this week said that a party of shearers and musterers were organising an expedition to the Campbell Islands for the purpose of shearing the sheep that were left there three years ago when the holding was evacuated under instructions from the mortgagees. The message has caused considerable surprise in Dunedin, where the authority of the party to shear the sheep, which now have a three years’ growth of wool, is emphatically questioned. To-day a telegram was forwarded to Christchurch on behalf of the mortgagees stating that the senders could not understand the reference to the shearing of the Campbell Islands sheep as no authority had been given by the mortgagees to anyone to interfere in any way with this stock.
