Frater who followed Hoodless as Principal of CMS (appointed December 31, 1946).
A Presbyterian minister and the son of a Presbyterian missionary (Maurice Frater).
Fergus Clunie: Frater died young. He had been in a prison camp during the war. Just dropped dead.
The position was vacant in the Civil List for 1954.
Waibuca, the archivist at [Fiji School of Medicine]] said that an acting Director in the 1950s threw away a large number of records. It is likely that it was the person who took over after Frater's death. If Hoodless left the bones at FSM, they could have been discarded during this purge of the archives--if so, they are gone without a trace.
