Returning to Pago Pago in a heavy rain storm, I enjoyed a delightful evening and supper at the home of Gov. and Mrs. Kellog, Major Colby being also present. Slept on board the "France." Feb. 19, 1924. Night calm, hot and stuffy in the schooner, with several showers, but a good breeze came up and it cleared off in the morning. A con- ference with Mr. Beck regarding our trip, learning from him that we were to visit the Danger islands, Phoenix islands and Union islands and return to Pago Pago about April 18th. Then with Capt. Joe Steffany and Major Colby out along Leone Road again, visiting Faitogi, where the native girls sang, but we did not see the shark and turtle. We were treated to kawa by the native girls. Roll 1:3 Native houses at Fatu, on the Leone Road. (11353) " 1:4 Large native house at Fatu, on the Leone Raod.
