Summary

[edit]
Description
English: "Ratu Timothy, second son of King Thakombau, 1876" f.p. 278

Photo by late Colonel Stewart, R.E.

Note in the text (p.279) says of Ratu Timoci: "Ratu Timothy … was a fine, handsome man, with most charming manners, which made him very popular. Unfortunately he never knew how to say 'No' when invited to have a drink, and was constantly half-seas-over." This seems a poor qualification for his post as Cakobau's Minister for War and Police in the Cakobau government, a few years before this photograph was taken.
