The Anglican Mission schooner,

“Maclaren-King,” which carried mis sionaries, mail and provisions for so long to the various stations of the Diocese of New Guinea, was taken over by the Americans early in the war against Japan, and was one of the first vessels to meet with enemy action. Later it was run on a sandbank and wrecked. The Mission now is dependent upon the small launch, “St. George,” but it is hoped that a new “Maclaren-King” will be built in the future.
