A LADY’S PLUNGE.
INCIDENT AT A WHARF.
In spite of numerous warnings, some people" who accompany intending passengers to the Port at Nelson (says the “Mail”), fail to leave the steamer at the appointed time. Last week a lady visitor who delayed too long oyer her good-byes, found herself in a dilemma. The steamer had moved off, and had proceeded some little distance < before the visitor realised that she had started on an unlooked-for trip to Pieton. Reaching the deck, she was somewhat dismayed at the distance the wharf was below’her ; but she gathered herself together and made the plunge. A. blushing constable, and a likewise blushing companion, well known in shipping circles, were right in the line/of the lady’s descent, and their combined efforts enabled her to safely land on tlie 1 wharf.
