NO TRACE YESTERDAY. - (By Telegraph. Press Association). AUCKLAND, thisday. No trace was discovered yesterday of Thomas William Wilson, the prisoner who escaped from the Auckland Hospital on Sunday night. Several reports have been made to the police of persons thought to resemble Wilson, but inquiry has revealed that the persons are not the wanted man. It is thought possible that, the man driven along" the- Great South Road by a woman on Monday,rnprning is the one reported to the Pukekohe police to be walking along the main road at , Ramarama. This man was found by;,! a constable near the Razorback, and, 7 ? although there was a striking lance; he was not Wilson. : .'. : : '- :^~>j'_ It is thought that Wilson may Be in hiding in Auckland, for there, were . again ho ..reports yesterday 6|. any. homes being entered: on the Great: South Road and none of his hayingseen. ... rSfeehgth to, this belief is' ad-; ded by the fact that Wilson's internal trouble, for which he. entered, the hos-* pital for treatment, f was; severe" enough to require medical attention.
