W. S. Gilbert's ballad of the " Nancy Bell. " When returning home to this country in 1874, Mr. Nettleton told me that he passed through Sydney, Australia, and there on a fruit-stall saw 142 BISHOP HAWKINS a small pile of strawberries — a sight he had not seen for many years. So he marched up to the stall- keeper and said: "May I partake of your straw- berries ? I have not seen one during all the years I have been in Fiji. " He picked and ate about a dozen — certainly not more than half a pound,... and then gave the salesman a golden Australian sovereign. After waiting a minute or two, he said: M Where is my change ?" but the owner of the stall shook his head and said: " There is no change — strawberries are a very valuable article here. " So, perforce, he had to be content, but thought it the most expensive luxury he had ever bought, and determined to be more cautious in future and ask the price first. The dear old missionary passed away in 19 14 at the ripe age of seventy-nine, after fifty years' ministry at home and abroad, full of honours, having been elected to the legal hundred Methodist Council in 1888, and made honorary member of the British and Foreign Bible Society in recognition of his valuable assistance in the translation of the earliest version of the Scriptures into the language of Fiji.
