Rarotongan History

Letter to the Editor THERE recently came into my posses sion a very yellow copy of a jour nal, “Te Torea”, mimeographed at Rarotonga, dated June 29, 1898.
In this small journal reference is made to a Captain Piltz, who doubtless is the same person mentioned in an article recently, in an issue of the “P.1.M.”
Mention is also made of a very rowdy hospital meeting, at which figured a Mr. Carl Kohn, and Makea Vakaatini.
It would be interesting to know the full circumstances of the case. Perhaps some of your readers could oblige with facts.
I am, etc.,
