Abstract: After reading about the Knights of Malta I have held a fascination to visit and explore Malta. This was stimulated even more when my then financial adviser told me he had purchased a small flat in Malta and had filled the bookshelves with books about boating. However, visitations to that part of the world will have to wait until a suitable opportunity arises. Which brings me to the question, what do the following have in common: Count Dr. G. Messins, Valletta; E. H. Rymer, Sub-Lieut. RN, HMS "Edgar", Suez; Rev R. A. MacDonald, St. Patrick's College, Manly, Sydney; Alfred Smith, Hawaii (surely not "the" Alfred Smith)? These names and addresses appear on used newspaper wrappers of Malta. [excerpt]
