American Governor Calls at Apia
From Our Own Correspondent APIA, November 15.
The Governor of American Samoa.
Mr. G. S. Lincoln, on the U.S.S. vessel, Ontario, paid an official visit to Apia, returning the visit paid recently by our Administrator to Pago Pago.
The Ontario arrived on October 30.
After inspecting the Constabulary guard of honour, at the Customs wharf, Governor Lincoln and Mrs. Lincoln drove to Government House, Vailima, where they stayed as guests of General Hart (Administrator) and Mrs. Hart.
The American visitors attended the meeting of the Apia Turf Club on Saturday, when a special race was run for the sailors of the Ontario, and a dance was given in their honour at Vailima. Sunday was dedicated to golf, in which an Apia team beat the American team.
On Monday the Ontario left on her return to Pago Pago.
