p. 62 · Read in the full issue
THE Bishop of Tahiti, Monseigneur Paul Maze, recently paid a visit to Hawaii, travelling via Suva and Pago Pago. He was given a cordial welcome in Fiji, American Samoa and Hawaii; and in Honolulu he was re united with his sister, who is now con nected with the Catholic Mission in Hawaii, and whom he had not seen for many years. An old friend, whom the Bishop met again with pleasure, was Purser Mehigan, of the Matson liner “Monterey”. The Bishop travelled with Mr. Mehigan on the old “Mariposa” in 1910.
Bishop Maze, like Bishop Darmand, of Western Samoa, takes a keen interest in the history of the Polynesian race, and is a regular correspondent of the Bishop Museum of Hawaii, to which institution he has supplied a good deal of valuable information.
Mr. and Mrs. Nottage, of Tongoa, New Hebrides, are at present in New Zea land.
Mr. Parshu Ram, headmaster of St.
Andrew’s Indian school in Fiji, is now undergoing a year’s special study in New Zealand.
