KOPUAWHARA TRAGEDY
INQUIRY FROM ENGLAND
MTDOW OF VICTIM
[ Per Press Association.] AUCKLAND, April 12. Asking for full particulars as to the fate of her husband, Frank W. Fry, aged 51, who was one of the 21 victims in the Kopuawhara tragedy on February 19, Mrs. Catherine Fry, of Blackpool, England, has written to the New Zealand Herald. “My husband, F. W. Fry, is named amongst the victims and I would be relieved to know what happened as 1 am left bereft with three young children,” states Mrs. Fry. “He was working hard to raise the money for us to join him in New Zealand but had had long spells of unemployment and could not make much headway. We are all in great distress here at the sudden sad loss and if you will send me papers giving the fullest accounts I will be very thankful.”
