LATE MR. W. M. O’HARA.
BODY TO BE BROUGHT BACK TO NEW ZEALAND.
AT GOVERNMENT’S EXPENSE. SYDNEY, May 26. The New Zealand Prime Minister (the Bt. Hon. M. J. Savage) has authorised the New Zealand Trade Commissioner in Sydney (Mr. W. Taylor) to have the body of Mr W. M. O’Hara, the New Zealand aviator who was killed in a crash on Sunday, sent to New Zealand at the Government’s expense.
The Union Bank of Australia and the Shell Oil Company have made arrangements to bring the body to Sydney from Dubbo, but it is not likely to reach here in time to go by the Monterey to-morrow, and probably Will be taken by the Wanganella on Saturday.
An inquest is being held on a station near Dubbo to-day.
