Hermann Kersting becomes Ponape district officer, serving until 1914.

What happened

Kersting had led the Melanesian police in the January 1911 assault on Sokehs, and a June 1911 report from him to the colonial government survives in the German archive. The same German list on a Wikipedia mirror shows him heading the Yap district in 1910–1911 before taking over Pohnpei.
