Rarotonga

Rarotonga, May 24.

A STRANGE sail was sighted one day last week, and the “Pai ori aere” (the ship that has got nothing else to do but go from place to place) was soon alongside the Avarua wharf.

She was the “Land’s End”, captained by retired marine-engineer Jeffrey, from Durban, South Africa, and has a crew of four. They left Durban last Septem ber. on a trip round the world, their route being via the Atlantic Ocean, Panama Canal, Society Islands. Their next port of call is Auckland, N.Z.
