Sullenness under the Sun

The article focuses on official colonialism. The author describes his incidental wandering onto the spacious grounds of the Governor's residence. According to the author, the real foreign governors are not in the islands at all, but 3,000 miles away in London, England in the Colonial Office, and it is only an accident to encounter the Crown-appointed white members of the various island legislatures. And these men, holding on by a frayed thread, are so obviously anachronisms that the conclusion comes easy that the old colonialism is dead.
