aged seven. years, who was placed iu charge of the chief steward, Mr. Colmar, at Pitcairn Island, to be d«livered to Mr. and Mrs. E. H. Marsh, Petone. Owing to a xnisunderstanding the boat was not met by the 'child's relatives, but Mrs.. Eglinton, who had gone to the boat to welcome a friend, kindly volunteered to deliver the child to liis uncle, and took him to Petone in her car. This was the little fellow's first experience of a motor-car, and when asked how he liked it, replied "I did not like to come out of-it.'' The boy is very fair and not at all sun-tanned, although he was born on the island. His voice is very pleasing, like a soft Irish brogue. His engaging and self-reliant manner captivated tlie women on board, and the steward's task was made easy for him by the many kindnesses and attenttons extended to the child. The trains and motor-cars have been a never-failinjf sourse of interest to him. He will have lirst experience of school life at the Petone West School, and it will.be interesting to note his reactions. His father is a missionary dentist I on Pitcairn Island under the aegis of the Seventh Day Adventist Church. So rigidly are vegetarian principles ingrained into the children on the island I that when he was offered a titbit on I the boat which he suspected had a J meat flavouring} he refused to eat it. I This little lad is a nephew of Mrs. L. W. Goldflnch, of Havelock Nortli, who I hopes to hav^a him to spen the summer holidays with her. Mrs. Goldtiiich's j father, Mr. Charles Latrobe Cooze, who is now about 89 years of age, still lives at Pitcairn Island, where he has lived with his son, the little boy's father, for the last 12 years .
