Samoan Mau Honours Late High

Chief Tamasese

From Our Own Correspondent

Apia, Jan. 8.

THE annual procession and memorial A service in memory of the late High Chief Tamasese, who lost his life in the unfortunate riot six years ago, took place on December 28.

Over 500 Mau women in their uniform dress of blue with white stripes marched through Apia, preceded by a band and led by the wives of High Chiefs Faumuina and Tuimalealiifano. At the grave of Tamasese at Lepea, which had been suit ably decorated, a memorial service was held, at which a large gathering of Samoans attended.

The procession and ceremony passed without any undue incidents.
