A. M. E. burial ground

In 1916, the African Methodist Episcopal Church received one acre of public land for a burying ground for their dead. 

Also that year, a ferry franchise was granted to F. V. Massali, to cross the Po and Little Cape Mount or Loffa Rivers from Manjamah to Bornaijah, with rates not to exceed ten cents per person. 

A territorial court was established in 1916, providing for its organization with five divisions: law, admiralty, equity, probate and native.
