Our Cover

Norfolk Islanders, who are trying to ensure a happy future, feature largely in this month’s PIM. The cover pic ture records a solemn mo ment in the islanders’ com memoration in June of the 121st anniversary of the ar rival of the Pitcairners on Norfolk. The picture, taken by Pastor Laurence Gilmore of the Seventh-day Adventist Church, shows Cr Blucher, president of the Island Coun cil (in cocked hat) as Captain Denham RN, and Admin istrator O’Leary (alias storekeeper Mr Stewart) and Mrs O’Leary in welcoming mood as they greet the Pit cair n e r s in the co m memorative charade. “Nor folk: From hell-hole to heaven-on-earth” begins on page 38.
