Suva, May 10.

rE unexpected and sudden death of Miss Lorraine Kermode, the attrac tive 20-years-old daughter of our well-known and esteemed Inspector Ker mode, of the Fiji Police Force, was a real tragedy.

Her marriage to Lieutenant Boyce was to have taken place in the following week, and her many girl friends were busily completing arrangements which would have made of it an outstanding social event. An elaborate function, arranged by the young ladies, had been fixed for the afternoon of the day on which she passed' away. The funeral was one of the largest seen here in a long time.
