service of Him, who has bought them with
His own precious blood. The following
resolution was adopted by this Association
in 1870:
Resulted, That in the opinion of this
Association the time has come for us to enlarge the basis of our Theological School.
To assist our Hawaiian pastors in their
work, preparations have been made for a
course of lectures. These it is thought have
been prepared by several of the older missionaries, and will be delivered during this meet-
ing.
Publications.
The Hymn Book, prepared by Rev. L.
Lyons and revised by Key. H. H. Parker
and Key. A. O. Forbes, is now in the hands
of the printer. The cost of printing the
first edition of 1,000 copies will be $724.00.
We may soon have this Book for sale. It
is being printed at New York by the American Tract Society. The same Society is
printing for us the " Bible Dictionary," and
we hope soon to receive it.
The " Text Book " and the " Commentary" are in the hands of the Key. E. W.
Clark. He has not yet found a society willing to publish them. He writes, however,
"1 think the Tract Society may be induced
to print other works on the same terms as
the Hymn Hook. If you can contrive to
pay one half in advance. Will it not be well
to appropriate the jubilee fund now in the
hands of the Treasurer of the Board to this
purpose? I think the fund could not be
used in a more appropriate manner."
The hymns and tunes, published in the
newspaper .[lnula, have been bound up in
book form, under the title, " Ka Hae Huonani." It is in demand, and will pay fur
itself.
We have printed in the Gilbert Island
dialect the Epistles of Paul to the Corinthians and Galatians, and reprinted Matthew,
John and Ephesians. Also an arithmetic,
by Mrs. Bingham, in the same language.
Total number of pages, 451,500.
No books have been printed here in the
Marshall or Bonabe dialects. Portions of
the New Testament have been c-irried
through" the press in the United States by
the missionaries from those islands, who
have visited the States the past year.
Two thousand seven hundred and ninetythree (2,793) copies, containing 1,807,947
pages of the Bible, and portions of the
same, have been received from the press of
the American Bible Society, of which 890,--464 pages have been sold and given away.
The whole number of pages sold and
gratuitously distributed the past year has
been 1,572,387. The amount received from
these sales has been $1,229.29 for Bibles,
and $801.36 for other books, making a total
of $2,030.65. The following table, prepared by Mr. W. Chamberlain, exhibits the
amounts received from sales of Bibles, Testaments and other books from 1865 to May,

Newspapers.
The Hawaiian Board has entered into an
engagement with the publisher of the newspaper Ktiokoa, by which the fourth page of
that paper is devoted to religious matter.
This page has been placed under the superintendence of a committee, consisting of
Rev. L. Smith, D. D., Rev. L. Lyons, and
Rev. J. D. Paris. It has been the desire of
this committee to make this page a power
in the Church, and nation. In this they
have not been disappointed. The paper has
had a larger circulation, and exerted a greater influence the past year than ever before.
An independent newspaper conducted on
Christian principles cannot but exert a great
influence upon the nation.
To make the Kuokoa a paper that will
exert this influence will be the aim of the
publisher and of those who conduct the
fourth page.
The A Innla has been edited the past
year by the Rev. A. 0. Forbes. The circulation has not been so large as in former
years. It is of the utmost importance that
this paper should circulate largely among
our youth. What can we do to increase its
circulation? This is a subject for consideration at this meeting.

FOREIGN DEPARTMENT.
The schooner Annie, Capt. Babcock, was
chartered to carry supplies to our missions
in the Gilbert and Marshall groups. For
this purpose she left Honolulu on the 13th
of July, 1870, and returning arrived here
on the 27th of October.
Key. H. Bingham and wife, whohad been
on the Gilbert Islands for several months,
returned on her to Honolulu, as also did the
Rev. J. H. Mahoe, wife and children, and
the widow of Mr. Kaelemakule, of Namarik, Marshall Islands.
Mr. Kaelemakule
was not well when he left Namarik to visit
these islands, on account of the health of
his wife. His troubles increased on board
of the Annie. At Bularitari he was taken
from the vessel in an unconscious state, and
had the kind care of Mr. and Mrs. Bingham
with the other missionaries of that station,
but died on the 27th of September, 1870.
Rev. S. Kauwealoha, of the Marquesas
mission, returned to his station on the
whaleship ('omoonUa. Capt. Jones, which
left here on the 30th of December, 1870,
and arrived at Uapou February sth, 1871.
A new vessel has been built by the A. B. C.
F. M. to replace the one wrecked on Strong's
Island in 1869. She sailed from Boston on
the 27th of February, 1871.
Four missions are now sustained by the
Hawaiian Evangelical Association, viz. :
The Gilbert Islands, the Marshall Islands,
the Caroline Islands, and the Alarquesas.

The Church appears to have been somewhat
revived during the visit of Mr. Bingham.
The disorderly church members were instructed, antl many of them, having confessed their sins, were permitted to come to the

A few years ago this was the darkest pornf this mission field. Three Hawaiians
were killed by the king. The missionaries
fled from the island, and the people appeared
to be completely demoralized. It is now the
brightest part of the field. The labors of
the missionaries have been blessed to the
salvation of souls. The king's brother, sister and brother-in-law are now members of
the church. The king, though not caring
for instruction, and giving himself up to the
gratification of his own lusts, does not oppose the missionaries. Forty-five members
are connected with the church ; twenty-two

This is also a new station. Our missionary is protected by one of the high chiefs.
The king of the island, however, is not in
favor of missionaries living on the island.
The people have tried once and again to
poison the family of the missionary, but
thus far they have escaped. Schools have

people. They fear God. Dwell in peace,
are industrious, and as well clothed as Hawaiians. Four houses of worship are opened
on the Sabbath, which are filled with those
who delight to keep holy the Lord's day.
159 persons are connected with the church,
under a pastor chosen from among themselves. This pastor is the son of Old King
George, who took Mr. Snow under his protection, when he landed upon the Island to
instruct the people in the Christian religion.
The Queen is a church member, and gives
mod evidence of being a humble Christian.
The King is moral, intelligent, somewhat
avaricious, not a church member, but does
not oppose.
With deep sorrow we have to record the
death of the pastor of this Church. He was
a high chief, a humble Christian, a man of
influence. Since his death there has been
disaffection in the Church, hut nothing serious. May not the Lord raise up upon those

Executive Board has appointed two new
missionaries to Micronesia, with the prospect
ofobtaining two more, all of them with wives,

wives, to reinforce the Marquesas mission.

On the 16th of June, the full Association,
with other Christian friends, commemorated
the death of bur blessed Lord and Master in
the Supper. It was "A time of love," and
we are sure that the Bridegroom was there,
lifting up hearts to a higher plane of Christian resolve, and into clearer light and purer
love.
At the close of this communion season the
Association spent half an hour in prayer and
praise, and then adjourned to meet again on
the 11th of June, 1872.

service of Him, who has bought them with
His own precious blood. The following
resolution was adopted by this Association
in 1870:
Resulted, That in the opinion of this
Association the time has come for us to enlarge the basis of our Theological School.
To assist our Hawaiian pastors in their
work, preparations have been made for a
course of lectures. These it is thought have
been prepared by several of the older missionaries, and will be delivered during this meet-
ing.
Publications.
The Hymn Book, prepared by Rev. L.
Lyons and revised by Key. H. H. Parker
and Key. A. O. Forbes, is now in the hands
of the printer. The cost of printing the
first edition of 1,000 copies will be $724.00.
We may soon have this Book for sale. It
is being printed at New York by the American Tract Society. The same Society is
printing for us the " Bible Dictionary," and
we hope soon to receive it.
The " Text Book " and the " Commentary" are in the hands of the Key. E. W.
Clark. He has not yet found a society willing to publish them. He writes, however,
"1 think the Tract Society may be induced
to print other works on the same terms as
the Hymn Hook. If you can contrive to
pay one half in advance. Will it not be well
to appropriate the jubilee fund now in the
hands of the Treasurer of the Board to this
purpose? I think the fund could not be
used in a more appropriate manner."
The hymns and tunes, published in the
newspaper .[lnula, have been bound up in
book form, under the title, " Ka Hae Huonani." It is in demand, and will pay fur
itself.
We have printed in the Gilbert Island
dialect the Epistles of Paul to the Corinthians and Galatians, and reprinted Matthew,
John and Ephesians. Also an arithmetic,
by Mrs. Bingham, in the same language.
Total number of pages, 451,500.
No books have been printed here in the
Marshall or Bonabe dialects. Portions of
the New Testament have been c-irried
through" the press in the United States by
the missionaries from those islands, who
have visited the States the past year.
Two thousand seven hundred and ninetythree (2,793) copies, containing 1,807,947
pages of the Bible, and portions of the
same, have been received from the press of
the American Bible Society, of which 890,--464 pages have been sold and given away.
The whole number of pages sold and
gratuitously distributed the past year has
been 1,572,387. The amount received from
these sales has been $1,229.29 for Bibles,
and $801.36 for other books, making a total
of $2,030.65. The following table, prepared by Mr. W. Chamberlain, exhibits the
amounts received from sales of Bibles, Testaments and other books from 1865 to May,

Newspapers.
The Hawaiian Board has entered into an
engagement with the publisher of the newspaper Ktiokoa, by which the fourth page of
that paper is devoted to religious matter.
This page has been placed under the superintendence of a committee, consisting of
Rev. L. Smith, D. D., Rev. L. Lyons, and
Rev. J. D. Paris. It has been the desire of
this committee to make this page a power
in the Church, and nation. In this they
have not been disappointed. The paper has
had a larger circulation, and exerted a greater influence the past year than ever before.
An independent newspaper conducted on
Christian principles cannot but exert a great
influence upon the nation.
To make the Kuokoa a paper that will
exert this influence will be the aim of the
publisher and of those who conduct the
fourth page.
The A Innla has been edited the past
year by the Rev. A. 0. Forbes. The circulation has not been so large as in former
years. It is of the utmost importance that
this paper should circulate largely among
our youth. What can we do to increase its
circulation? This is a subject for consideration at this meeting.
The following table will show the receipts,

which it has been published :

The schooner Annie, Capt. Babcock, was
chartered to carry supplies to our missions
in the Gilbert and Marshall groups. For
this purpose she left Honolulu on the 13th
of July, 1870, and returning arrived here
on the 27th of October.
Key. H. Bingham and wife, whohad been
on the Gilbert Islands for several months,
returned on her to Honolulu, as also did the
Rev. J. H. Mahoe, wife and children, and
the widow of Mr. Kaelemakule, of Namarik, Marshall Islands.
Mr. Kaelemakule
was not well when he left Namarik to visit
these islands, on account of the health of
his wife. His troubles increased on board
of the Annie. At Bularitari he was taken
from the vessel in an unconscious state, and
had the kind care of Mr. and Mrs. Bingham
with the other missionaries of that station,
but died on the 27th of September, 1870.
Rev. S. Kauwealoha, of the Marquesas
mission, returned to his station on the
whaleship ('omoonUa. Capt. Jones, which
left here on the 30th of December, 1870,
and arrived at Uapou February sth, 1871.
A new vessel has been built by the A. B. C.
F. M. to replace the one wrecked on Strong's
Island in 1869. She sailed from Boston on
the 27th of February, 1871.
Four missions are now sustained by the
Hawaiian Evangelical Association, viz. :
The Gilbert Islands, the Marshall Islands,
the Caroline Islands, and the Alarquesas.

The Church appears to have been somewhat

A few years ago this was the darkest pornf this mission field. Three Hawaiians
were killed by the king. The missionaries
fled from the island, and the people appeared
to be completely demoralized. It is now the
brightest part of the field. The labors of
the missionaries have been blessed to the
salvation of souls. The king's brother, sister and brother-in-law are now members of
the church. The king, though not caring
for instruction, and giving himself up to the
gratification of his own lusts, does not oppose the missionaries. Forty-five members

are industrious, and as well clothed as Hawaiians. Four houses of worship are opened
on the Sabbath, which are filled with those

159 persons are connected with the church,

George, who took Mr. Snow under his protection, when he landed upon the Island to
instruct the people in the Christian religion.
The Queen is a church member, and gives

The King is moral, intelligent, somewhat
avaricious, not a church member, but does
not oppose.
With deep sorrow we have to record the
death of the pastor of this Church. He was
a high chief, a humble Christian, a man of
influence. Since his death there has been

On the 16th of June, the full Association,
with other Christian friends, commemorated
the death of bur blessed Lord and Master in
the Supper. It was "A time of love," and
we are sure that the Bridegroom was there,
lifting up hearts to a higher plane of Christian resolve, and into clearer light and purer
love.
At the close of this communion season the
Association spent half an hour in prayer and
praise, and then adjourned to meet again on
the 11th of June, 1872.
