Under the above heading, the Fiji Times of December 10, 1912, records the death of Ratu Ambrose, the hereditary king of Suva, who died December 8, of typhoid fever, at the age of sixty-five. The Times says: “Of recent years Ratu Ambrose had been a most stanch follower of the Seventh-day Adventists, and a strict teetotaler. . . . Yesterday, practically the entire population of Suvavou left for the Rewa to attend the funeral.”
