Killed

Chinese Resident Of Rabaul

ONE of Rabaul’s best known Chinese residents, Mr. Chen Hein was killed in January when the jeep in which he was riding came into collision with a large truck driven by a native.

Before the war he owned plantations on New Ireland and his schooner, Kwong

Chow, was one of the best pre-war vessels in the area.

Chen Hein was universally liked and respected and his funeral was attended by all sections of the Rabaul community.

Mr. W. Tailby, Resident Commissioner of the Cook Islands, with Mrs. Tailby and Miss Margaret Tailby, was on leave in New Zealand in January.
