Very vague as to date. 15 F. S. „ 17 10 Warkworth (forty miles north of Auckland) Waitara, near New Plymouth; came to Auckland about beginning June It is just possible these oysters came from W.'s, as the shop is near the wharf. Not a very definite case, but striking owing to the history of Auckland oysters. S. was dealing in Onehunga oysters as well as from Eussell. The only case where Auckland-grown oysters could be traced. About same time had oysters bought at B.'s store. 16 H.P. . 17 6 17 Q.H. „ 21 19 Arch Hill, Auckland 18 L.S.
