FOR the last ten years Dr. Danson has been
Bishop of the enormous diocese that includes Borneo, the third biggest island in the world, where his flock comprises not only the scattered British population, but the immigrant Chinese and the Dyaks, who were head-hunters a generation or two' ago. It is about these last, in the domains of the white Rajahs-the famous Brookes of Sarawak-that lie will talk tonight. Before lie went to this diocese he worked for many years in Singapore, Java and the Malay States, and lie is the only Bishop who has been shipwrecked twice.
