Mrs Shillabeer and family arrived at Port Sinclair on April 2 by the Wookata for their new home at Bagster. What a pity that the Bagster school is closed, as there are many more children now.

A nice little crowd attended at the Bagster church on Sunday to say farewell to the Rev. Humphery, who leaves by the boat this week. We are sorry to part with Mr Humphery so soon, and it is a pity he could not have stayed another twelve months at least. If Mr Peters (his successor) becomes as popular among the people no complaint will be raised against him.
