This image was taken for a story that ran in The Manawatu Evening Standard on 20th March, 1963. "With a portion of a £4000 house stranded in midstream in the Manawatu River and with dusk fast approaching, contractors who were transporting this house called in the New Zealand Army to assist yesterday afternoon. Two mobile cranes were sent and at 6:30pm the house was safe from the river."
