Oct. 23, 1891 SHIPPING NEWS: Arrival - Oct. 22 - Kiwi, s.s., from Wellington. Depatures - Oct. 20 - Te Kapu, s.s., for Wairoa. Oct. 22 - Kiwi, s.s., for Wellington. Oct. 23 - Australia, s.s., for Northern ports. Passengers - Messrs KNOWLER, GIBBS, FORDHAM, and SAWERS. Death - MORGAN - At Taradale, on October 21st, Bridget, wife of James MORGAN, aged 45 years. The funeral will leave her late residence to-day, at 3 p.m., for the Taradale cemetery. Friends please accept this intimation. Some time ago complaint was made to us (by a subscriber who did not wish to appear in the matter) to the effect that bereaved persons were frequently put to annoyance and inconvenience by inability to find the cemetery grave-digger, Mr FORREST, who lives at Greenmeadows. We are now asked to state that arrangements have been made by which a letter-box will be at Mr FORREST's late residence in Carlyle-street, now occupied by his son, so that persons who wish to communicate with the grave-digger can do so by that means. Mr RUDYARD KIPLING, the young Indian journalist, who at the age of 26 has made himself famous as an author wherever the English language is spoken, arrived in Napier last night......Mr KIPLING was highly delighted with the country he hurriedlyh passed through in the train. He put up at the Criterion Hotel, and expressed himself as surprised at finding such a large and well- conducted establishment in a town the size of Napier. Mr KELLY, a well-known half-caste, keeper of an accommodation house on the road between Kuripapanga and Moawhanga(?), had a most miraculous escape from sudden death on Wednesday. He had been to Kuripapanga, and in returning to Moawhanga he found, upon arriving at the top of the hill known as "Gentle Annie," that an immense landslide had taken place. A waggon driven by Mr KELLY's nephew was endeavoring to get round the cutting on its way to Kuripapanga, and Mr KELLY and four or five roadmen assisted to get the team round the cutting. While so engaged, Mr KELLY by some means fell over the cutting, dropping a distance of 40 feet sheer, and then rolled headlong to the bottom of the hill, ovder 500 feet from where he pitched after his first fall. He was picked up insensible and carried to the Kuripapanga Hotel, where Mr and Mrs MACDONALD kindly sat up with him all night.....Mr MACDONALD will bring the injured man into the Napier hospital to-day, when, if he recovers, as w! e hope will be the case, he will be able to boast of having fallen 550 feet without killing himself.
