Mr J. Saunders, contractor, of this city, is, we regret to hear, at present confined to his house through illness. It appears that he and one of his men lately drank some of the Wainui-o-mata water, and both of them were shortly afterwards taken ill. Whether the illness, however, is directly attributable to drinking Wainui-o-mata water, Dr Diver, who is attending Mr Saunders, is not in a position to state, not having analysed the water. It was anticipated that the Wainui-omata water would be supplied to the town tonight, but some delay has been occasioned by the bursting of one of the mains. It is hoped, however, that the water will be brought in to-morrow.
