and Sulu. 1t was while in this posi-
ton that he made such an excellent
impression on the powerful Dato
Piang that the latter adopted him
as his ranking son nd promised
to help him out at any time to the
extent of 500 head of carabao
Then Mr.. Bryant was appointed
governor of Cotobato. This province
had been under military govern
ment and it's Moro inhabitants were
unruly and unpacified. At great
personal risk the newly appointed
governor went out among them, lis
tened to all their grievances, and
gained their confidence and cooper
alton. He established a number of
colonies of people from the Chris
tan provinces in Cotobato
He resigned under the Osmena
Act in 1913 but his resignation was
not accepted. In 1917 he resigned
again, and this time insisted that
he be relieved.
For some years then he work ed
with his old chief of the Depart
ment of Interior, Dean c. Worcester
in the Visayan Refining Co. This
cocenut oil company had mills at
Opon and Manila, and was later
reorganized and rechristened as the
Philippine Refining Company.
Next Mr.. Bryant managed the
Port Lebak Lumber Company on
the coast of Cotabato for a few
years, then sold it for the owner
and returned to the United States
expecting to stay in this country
Within a few months, however
he received cablegrams urging him
to come back to the Philippines to
manage Pamplona Plantation on
the island of Negros -. and he
couldn't stay away!
So he took over the management
of this large coconut plantation in
1925. and developed it so remark
ably that his advice and data on
the raising of coconuts was sought
by people many thousands of miles
away.
It was in 1929 that Mr.. BRYANT
met Alice Franklin, who had taught
for a year in the Philippine School
of Arts and Trades in Manila. II
was almost love at first sight for
the longtime bachelor. and the two
were married that same year.
They continued to live on the
coo IN ut plantation, and their
daughter Imogene spent her early
years there. playing with her Fill
pino friends and speaking Visayan
so fluently that people said, "She
talks more like a Filipino than the
Filipinos do"
fortunately her parents left her

where Mr. Bryant lost rs pounds
and some of their friends starved
to death.
In l945 the Bryants were liber-
ated and repatriated, but 49, after
only halfway recovering from his
wartime hardships-he returned to
the Philippines and rehabilitatsd
Pamplona Plantation before retir-
ing in 1e4T.

where he labored
so long, and he went back for a
trip and spent seven months there
in 1954-55.
The word 'labored" is we'll used
in his case. He was reared on a
farm in Ohio, and from his earliest
years was accustomed to long days
of hard work. When he was seven
teen his father died, and he then
taught school for four years to help
support the family. After that he
went to the university, working his
way. So, when he reached a more
easy-going climate the habit of con-
slant work was too entrenched to
be relinquished-at least by one of
his energetic character and his
accomplishments were correspond
ingly great. However, his laborious
life never interfered with the ex-
'ercise of his unusually keen sense
of humor.
Upon arrival in the Philippines in
1902 he was sent to Lingayen as
provincial treasurer and after a
year was transferred to the prov
ince of Nueva Vizcaya, where he
was soon made acting governor
and then governor. This was before
Mountain Province was created, so
at that time Nueva Vizcaya was
much larger than now and included
Ifugao.
Besides the Ifugaos, the Hong
OTIS or Ibilaos-a still more primi-
tive people-were also under his
jurisdiction. Both of these peoples
were headhunters at that time and
most of the province was without
roads or trails. Supplying these was
one Of his greatest works here; and
he himself had to act as provincial
engineer, personally running the
grades for roads and trails and SUI
pervising the work. He also spent
weeks at a time hiking through
painless mountains to establish con-
tact with the more primitive people
and he succeeded in stopping the
headhunting, at least for as long
as he governed the province.
At that time salt was being la
boriously packed up from the sea-
coast, so Governor Bryant estab-
lished a plant for making it at a
salt spring. He also built schools
even among the Ilongots. On his re.
cent trip he was disappointed to
find that these Ilongot schools had
been closed as an economy measure.
After some years he was trans
ferred from Nueva Vizcaya to
Agusan which then included Blu
kidnon. These were among the non
Christian provinces which were un-
der the department of the Interior
and had appointed governors. Here
again he hiked through painless
wilderness in many cases to reach
scattered settlements Of Manobos
and other primitive tribes, And he
built such well-graded trails that
later automobile roads followed
them exactly.
At the time he went to Agusan.
its capital, Butuan, was said to be
the most unsanitary town in the
Philippines. After he had enlisted
the cooperation of the citizens,
cleaned it up, and frequently in
spected it personally to see that
sanitary conditions were being car
ried out DR.. Victor G. Heiser, then
in charge Of public health, declared
that 1t ws the cleanest town in the
Philippines One old resident voiced
preference for river water over
that from the new artesian wells,
explaining, "Tiene mas sustancial"
