After returning to Samoa with her father ’ s ashes , Clementine remained in the islands for the next 12 years . This photo from about 1918 shows her sitting on the horse on the right . She is with members of the Haaben family . Emil Haaben , who is the man sitting on the ground , was an engineer and owner of the Apia Ice Company . He was often seen in the company of his tame white parrot . Mrs Haaben is on the other horse .
Mr Haaben returned to Germany in August 1920 , probably as part of the forced repatriation process .
