From Our Own Correspondent.
Rabaul, Oct. 3.
TWO brothers, Messrs. S. S. and J. E.
Grimson. arrived on September 16 in the small 13-tons auxiliary ketch “Destiny”, after a two and a half months’ voyage from Sydney, via Papua. Until they undertook this trip, they had had no previous knowledge of sailing—they learned navigation at night school in their spare time. The voyagers spent a week in Port Moresby, Samarai, and the Trobriand Group.
The day after their arrival here, Mr. J.
Thurston, of Wewak, saw the “Destiny” and offered to buy it. With Mr. Thurs ton, the Grimson brothers will shortly sail for Wewak.
