A BRIGANTINE IN DISTRESS.
(PtK tTMTftD PRESS ASSOCIATION.)
NAPIEK, Oct. 13.
The brigantine Dunedin, bound from Mercury Bay to Dunedin, put in here in a distressful state. When off Cape Kidnappers she experienced a heavy Southerly gale. Ran for shelter, and made for the lee of the Cape, but on coming round ran on Black Reef and commenced to fill rapidly, but her buoyant cargo of timber kept her afloat. Made for .Napier roadstead and was towed inside.
