No More Cannibals In Cannibal Island Governor Says

D W De Volaux, newly appointed governor, states cannibalism is a thing of the past. He notes Christianization by Wesleyan and Roman Catholic missionaries and cites 1876 as when about ten thousand cannibals lived in the island interior. The Ex King Cakeuban praises British protection as natives now prosper under it. Also mentions a personal note on Hop Bitters for neuralgia healing his mother.
