Copra Store Destroyed In

Suva Fire

From Our Own Correspondent.

Suva, Mar. 18.

THE concrete copra store of Messrs.

Morris Hedstrom Ltd., in Suva, was destroyed by fire on March 13. About 300 tons of copra were lost. The adjoining oilworks, operated by the Union Soap Company, was saved. The southern wall of this building will probably need re constructing.

This memorial, at Mahina, Tahiti, marks the graves of the first L.M.S. missionaries to die in Tahiti—Thomas Lewis, 1799, and John Jefferson, 1807. An account of the dedication ceremony will appear in next issue.
