From Our Own Correspondent PAPEETE, April 10.
THE Cook Islands schooner Tiare Taporo (Captain Viggo Rasmussen), owned by the firm of A. B. Donald Ltd., of Auck land, N.Z., paid one of her rare visits to Tahiti last month, bringing a cargo of copra from Penrhyn and Manihiki, and also the usual consignment of Pipi pearls from the renowned lagoons of those islands.
After shipping a new mast, which was awaiting her here from San Francisco, the Tiare Taporo left again for the Cook Islands on April 7, taking as a passenger Mr. R. Wilkinson, who is the firm’s mana ger at Mangaia.
Mr. James J. Hartley, of the Papuan Public Service, will be married on June 6 to Miss Lome Duncan, of Strathfield, Sydney. Mr. Hartley is a son of Mrs. J.
A. Cattell, of the Solomon Islands. Mr.
Cattell, who is now stationed at Mak ambo, was formerly a resident of Port Moresby, Papua.
