[Dialogue] Question about Tonga

[Clare Whitney]

Dear Priscilla,  Colleen Smith and I recognize the woman on the right as the wife of the Methodist District Superintendent from Vava'u who were the hosts of the PTS.  The Vava'u PTS was in January 1983 at the high school.  Her name escapes us.  Clare W.

  Subject: [Dialogue] Question about Tonga


  This question about Tonga is for Mary Laura. Kaze Gadway and I are on the Outer Banks watching the waves and writing stories about our lives. I was in Tonga with Mary Laura and staff in 1982 for the Pacific Training School. I'm working on a story about that experience. I really have two questions, Mary Laura...
  If you go to my web site...I have a montage of women and girls on my home page. In the center of the montage are two Tongan women...and I can not remember their names. I hope you do...
  Also...we had a wonderful community celebratory meal spread out on cloth on the ground...which we all sat around...with mountains of food. Fortunately that was twenty-seven years ago when I could still sit on the ground. Do you remember what that kind of celebration is called...and who participated in it? Was it the school participants or the village folk...or just the school staff?
  Hope your memory is better than mine.
  I'm sending this to the ica and oe because I don't have your email address with me. You can write me personally if you wish...and include any other fond thoughts you have of Tonga that I should include.
  Take care,
  Priscilla
