SOME MORE DETAILS.
NAMES OF LOST WITNESSES.
Perth, Tuesday afternoon.
The latest particulars from Depuch Island state that 16 whites alone have been buried there, including Mr. Hill, Captain Maguinness, and Mr. Thompson. The latter, a surveyor, was found in the rigging of the lighter Clyo. Amongst the witnesses in the murder case, Kellerher, Shehan, Love, and Nagel are still missing. Two Japanese, who swam ashore from the lugger Clara reported that the boat, four members of the crew and the white mate, were all lost. All the Cossack luggers are believed to be safe. Only the edge of the storm struck Roebourne and very little damage was done. Eleven survivors have been brought to Balla Balla from Depuch.
