Samoan Launch In
From Our Own Correspondent.
Apia, May 11.
THE small motor launch Marstal, belonging to Mr. J. Ah Mu, of Apia, recently broke down, owing to engine trouble, on her way back from Aleipata, on the west coast of Upolu. The little vessel drifted over to Pago Pago, American Samoa, where she was repaired and supplied with gasoline and oil.
On the way back to Apia, the launch broke down again, and had to call in at Leone, American Samoa. After a lengthy delay, the Marstal has at last reached her home port again.
Mr. Walter Kington, who for 40 years was a member of the Fiji Government Printing Office staff, died in Summer Hill, N.S.W., on May 24. He retired from the Civil Service in 1923.
