Suva, Mar. 27.

ON her 23rd voyage in the Pacific, the London Missionary Society’s schooner “John Williams V” (Capt. E.

Kettle) departed from Fiji on March 14 to visit all the islands in the Gilbert and Ellice Group, Nauru and Ocean Is land. She had just completed a lengthy overhaul at Suva.

The only passengers were Rev. and Mrs. J. Spivey and their family, who were returning to the L.M.S. station at Abaian in the Northern Gilberts after spending leave in Great Britain.
