From Our Own Correspondent
RAROTONGA, May 20.

The ashes of the late Mr. T. C. Worrall, which were sent from Auckland, were interred at the London Missionary Society churchyard, Rarotonga, on May 13. A number of European friends attended the service.

Mr. Worrall was an Englishman. He first settled in Rarotonga in 1912. In World War I he served with the NZ forces and was severely wounded. Returning to Rarotonga he established a motor repairing business. At the outbreak of World War II he again enlisted with the N.Z. army. Mr. Worrall was 56 at the time of his death."
