The voracity of the liapuka (called groper in the South) is well known. To while away the time when waiting for the yachts in the race from Duneedi.n, a number of yachtsmen off the Lady Roberts went out in Mr. Tulloch s oil launch, the Agnes, for a fishing excursion (says the “Oamaru Post ).

London. “Ninety ger cent of the cases heard here and 97 or 98 per cent, of the oases of bodily injury arise from drink.”
