Death Of Two Well-Known

Fiji Women

TWO women, well known in Fiji for many years, died in December. They were Mrs. Godfrey Garrick, whose death occurred suddenly in Sydney; and Mrs. Percy McConnell, who has been ill for many months in Suva.

Mr. and Mrs. McConnell came to live in Suva in 1948 after more than 40 years of residence on Taveuni. Mrs. McCon nell’s generosity and kindness through the years won her a large circle of friends.

Mr. E. V. Crisp, managing director of Steamships Trading Co., Ltd., Papua, was a visitor to Sydney and Melbourne during December.
