STEVENSON'S
FRIEND DIES
PAPEETE. Tahihi. Apri 19.—
Donat, who spun weird tales of the!
native lore of the South Sea islands I
for his friend, Robert Louis Stpv
enaon. is dead here. He was well
advanced in years, but his exact i
Oge was unknown.
Donat was temporarily in charge
of the government administration of
the PaumoMrIslands when Steven-j
son arrived at Fakarava, and be
and the famous author become close, j
life-long friends. Stevenson would
sit by the hour and listen to the;
tales of ghosts as told by Donat;,
tales of how, on a certain night)
each year, ghosts of the natives of,
the long ago would gather in the)
Haamuta Valleys to sing and dance
to the music of ancient flutes.
Stevenson's great, black eyes
sWoyUt fplistep wtth excitement while
(he ’Hdtened to these tales, Donat

Mia Wn»w his death on Fob. 29,
last: "Ah, that was a fine man; so
kind, so gentle, so gracious to ev
erybody. He was a true democrat."
Donat, in relating to a eorres-1
pondent of the Associated Press the1
life led by Stevenson at, Faharava,!
painted an intimate word ploture!
of the noted author. Stevenson, he
said, would ramble along the beach
and through the cocoanut groves,
clad only in pajamas, barefooted |
and a great woven pandanus leafj
bat on his bead. He held kindly:
intercourse with the natives, whom'
ho compared with the gods of
Greece, and each evening celebrated
the close of a happy day with a bot
tle of champagne.
When Stevenson was aboard the
Casco, ready to sail for the main
land, he gave Donat a diamond ring
of great value. Donat r»id he re
fused to accept this souvenir of
Ihelr friendship, asking for some
thing of no great price, saying he
would treasure it to the end of his
days. As Stevenson's ship passed
over ithe .western horizon, Donat
stood on the shore, holding a ring
of no great monetary value, which
he treasured to the day of his death
as a gift from the great writer.

BISHOP TUTTLE
PASSES AWAY;
LONG ILLNESS
Oldest Anglican Bishop in
World, in Point of Serv
ice, Died Yesterday.
(Continued irons r*«e One.l
in the Christ Church Cathedral was
a feature oil' the c httreh-llfo of the
city and the announcement that he
would occupy a pulpit was sure to
draw a large congregation.
Bishop Tuttle was educated in
rural schools near hir, f.uth'r's home,
at Columbia University and at the
General Theological Seminary in New
York from which he was graduate I
in 1S62. Although his father was
methodist, Daniel Tuttle entered the
Episcopal ministry and was made
missionary Bishop of Montana, I’ta.h
and Idaho in 1867, and in 1886 was
elected Bishop of Missouri.
Bis'hop Tuttle had great physical
activity and his habitual gait would
hb.ve taxed the powers of many
younger men. In his 7fith year he
found pleasure in chopping down
trees and cutting firewood. He was
vigorous in opposing a plan to make
the tposit of presiding R shop elective
Instead of its going by seniority. The
elective plan, he argued, would tend
to make the presiding Bishop of the
church a superior prelate, and would
give the church what he termed "a
Hildebrandian touch and tone.”
A coadjutor Bishop to assist Bishop
Tuttle in the diocese of Missouri was
elected in 1905. Bidhop Tuttle wats
married to Miss Harriet M. Foote,
of Morris, N. Y„ in 1865.
