In-Around The Bahamas
By A. H. McKINZIt
Clarence Farrington, a patient
at the mental hospital at Fox Hill,
attacked the medical officer with
a knife on Dec. 15. In the com
bat which lasted about half an
hour, the doctor was stabbed in
the face and head, and on his
hand before Farrington was sub
dued. An attendant, who was with
the doctor, is reported to have
run from the scene and to have
locked himself in a room. Inves
tigation is being made to determ
ine how Farrington obtained the
knife.

A group of Harvard graduates
known as The Harvard Friends of
Eleuthera, presented a .plaque to
His Excellency the Governor re
cently at the opening ceremony
of the multi-million dollar Coral
Harbor Club, as a token of 320
years of friendship between' the
Bahamas and the oldest North
American college.
The plaque measures 12 x 14
inches of a solid plank of very
good “brasiletto” wood, and was
carved by Truman Bailey in
Lima, Peru, and was presented
by the lit. Rev. Spence Burton,
bishop of Nassau, and a 1903 Har
vard graduate.
Back in 1650, the Eleutherans,
in appreciation for help received,
sent 10 tons of brasiletto wooci to
Boston to be sold, and the net
proceeds .be given to the college.
