To New Shipping Co.
Suva, May 18.
IT has been announced that Messrs. Bar ratt and Baker have been successful with their tender for the government subsidised shipping service between Suva- Levuka-Vanua Levu. The service will be carried on with an auxiliary ketch, “Island Prince.”
Morris Hedstrom, Ltd., had carried on the service for years previously and their small ship, “Adi Rewa,” became an insti tution in those ports. In a recent letter to the firm, the Colonial Secretary spoke of the spotless condition of the vessel and the consideration always given by the master of the vessel to passengers.
Mr. L. Corbett, of Rabaul, NG, left the Territory for Australia, on leave, at the end of May.
