Manawatu Savages Raid Nelson

The Nelson Savage Club suffered (and how they suffered) a raid from a friendly tribe of Manawatu Savages recently, but the only injuries inflicted were self, and the tribesmen from the north departed on the Sunday in fairly good shape. On the Saturday evening they provided wonderful entertainment for their own and Nelson counterparts at a korero in the Old Folks' Hall.
