autonomy win be given to the
Virgin. Islands in the future. In
the past few months, ! have been

task all my time, all my energy,
all my experience, and whatever
skill / may possess, to advance the
true interests Of and to provide
good government for these beau
tiful islands which are my home.
So help me God!
