The old Willomee, owned by the Pearl Kasper Shipping Company, is no stranger to Nelson, but shortly little of her will be seen in her home port for she is to be put on the Wellington-Lyttelton run and her place on the Wellington-Nelson run taken by the Steel-built Konanda. This vessel had left Australia for Nelson when this issue was going to press.
