Here is my bit of message to all of you. We have recently learned literacy, we have seen and heard the good word of Jehovah. We really desire the good teachings of Jesus Christ. What he has taught all of us is excellent indeed and we have finally become learned. We were shown compassion by Jehovah, who sent Mr. Bingham and Mr. Thurston and all the teachers. And they dwelled with us here and our lands �have become enlightened. Our hearts rejoice for their good teaching to us. Our hearts are joyful at Jehovah’s words to us. That bit of message is finished. Here is another message: you may have already heard. I will clarify so that you all hear. We had wooden deities before, during my father’s time. In my time, I have abandoned wooden deities. It turns out my abandoning of them beforehand was appropriate, for Mr. Bingham, Mr. Thurston and all the teachers were arriving. [Page 2 of 2] It is through our father that I may greet all of you. Jesus Christ was good in speaking to you, saying to you all, “Go and teach throughout the islands, and preach the good word of salvation.” The ministers sailed here to do good things for us, we were overjoyed. And later on we may well be fully virtuous. We observe the sacred day of Almighty God in heaven, savior of us all. Greatly beloved are all of you for thinking of us, for sending them here. Thankfully you sent teachers or our lands would be completely ignorant. But no, you showed us compassion. Our lands have become enlightened. Deep regards to all of you. May we have salvation through Jehovah and Jesus Christ our Lord. Tamehameha King of Hawaiʻi Notes: 1.

Typescript: [Page 1 of 4] New York City June 8th 1850 My dear Mrs. Bates Your kind note was received while we were in Boston, and I thought I would sit right down, and answer it but we were so much engaged with Company, & calls, and all those things that Lions have to undergo, that I really found it impossible. I received one from Nelly a very short one to be sure, and just long enough, short enough I mean, as to let me know that ^she had some faint ideas of such a being ^as myself somewhere, And then again it was ^so distant, so top lofty, that I was almost afraid to answer it but finally I summoned courage, but I haven't sent sent it yetI did not know but ^what widowers are getting scarce there - I was sorry to hear from you that you did had not received one from meI wrote you in Paris but perhaps, as yours was dated the 7th March, that the letters did �not arrive till the 9th as I have heard Yours are the only regular letters that I [Page 2 of 4] receive. William also wrote very regularly, but I have received only one from the King thus far, eight months from home, the Queen has written oftener, and her letters are very affectionate. John Young wrote once & I received one from the Governor notifying me of the death of my step mother. But that great composition writer, the all powerful, the never tiring letter writer, Miss. E. H. Judd not a single word, very true I never wrote, but then friends are nothing else but such, and sometimes they are placed in different circumstances. Nelly, she has written of course “tres pen”. But Bernice she has no course to pursue, but to say that she has cut me, that is all, the I wrote her in San Francisco, was acknowledged indirectly by another person to Lot but merely mentioning the fact that she has received it. I see no excuse except that more other objects of more interest than letter writing have taken her round, in plain, that she is to be married, as I hear, of course there is no use of [Page 3 of 4] expecting any, but perhaps she might have written to let me know ^that I am sure that that would be a very good piece of news, at any rate it would be gratifying but perhaps all forgotten, the world, its cares; its every thing; ^everything looking on ahead to future happiness & bliss-true happiness in Wedded life, settling down, keeping house, money from the Hawaii Plantationdelightful- exquisite happiness I say: Go it �when you are young” Now I have spent 3/4ths of my sheet blowing ^up the whole town of Honolulu, now I will tell how we are doing. The Doctor is fat, well, gained 20 pounds since he left home. Lot & myself ditto every thing goes on well. Just returned from Washington, saw General Taylor, went to his reception, visited Congress saw most of the Great Men of the United States. Henry Clay was making a good deal of fuss about a compromise between the Northern & Southern States, about the Slavery Question. We first arrived from England at Boston, was made Lions of there by the Mayor & City Authorities and also by the American Board. The Country seats around there are very Few. Monday we shall attend a grand [Page 4 of 4] file-champetre a 200 $3000 affair Some 4 or 500 invitations given out, the party expressly for us. It is given by some friends of Mr. Jarves. One of the princely merchants of Staten Island. We are to spend the night there and the next morning morn we are to have a dejeuner a la fouchette. We are going up to Niagra falls, visit the Lakes, and your Mother, and then we shall be Homeward Bound. When in Paris I wrote, I did not come like to come home so very soon, but it was only because I had got out of the sphere of growth attraction. But the nearer I draw towards home I feel liking jumping some where I know not. But the idea of seeing you again some few weeks after you receive this is horrid, it seems as if time was �slacking her pace to torment meBut patience and ^all will come and in due time. My love to all friends and Enemies ditto- Brothers Sisters & all ditto[in margin, continuing in same hand] Remember me to Mr. Bates, the boys, and especially to Sissy I shall bring her some sugar candy- See you 31st-49th But I must bid you farewell - till we meet at the Ileue[?] I remain your ^affectionate adopted son Alexander Notes: 1.

Typescript: [Page 1 of 4] Hotel Meurice 1 April 1850 My dear Mother Bates, Your very kind letter of the 26th of November was gratefully received I assure you, for it was about the only one of the few answers that I received to the many letters that I wrote to friends in the Islands, but with a few exceptions. I find that my letters were all directed wrong, for perhaps if I had not written to those I did not write to, I would have received answers as prompt as if they took a little interest in friends at a distance. I am sorry I did not write to the Girls, for, Lot, who wrote to them has received their answers, and they are I think the only ones that answered his letters at all except the King & Queen & John Young. I have only received one from the King since I left, and also only one from John Young, but the Queen is very kind to me & writes very often. Besides your own, the Queens are the only ones that have reces acknowledged the receipts �of my letters; I believe John Young did so too, but of my other letters that I wrote I presume they [Page 2 of 4] have all been lost. For their fate does not seem to be known. I wrote to Bernice, to Hopkins and to several others, but, I do not what the matter is in Honolulu. In the Girls of letters to Lot, they speak of having a great deal of company, I do not think some of my other friends have half the Company, and yet the Girls have found time enough to answer their letters and also to their father. Perhaps - but I do not know how much credit to give to some reports that I have reached us, and, therefore, perhaps I ought not to Complain. But, I assure you, that I felt it quite hard, for I have no reason to think of, that would prevent some reasons of my friends that I wrote to from answering. William, writes regularly, and I am so obliged to him. We have now been in this delightful city for more than two months, and sad to relate, the longer I stop in Paris, the more attached I have become, You must think me very naughty but so it is. We have gone some into English society in France, & I like it much, but, I think I prefer French Society, and I think I would enjoy it infinitely more if I could speak the language. The French society I think is more fascinating, but perhaps you will say, that I have been soft soaped by the French, but I do not know what it is, but [Page 3 of 3] there is something that is so pleasant, with the French young ladies especially. We are taking French lessons, & to hear some of the Mademoiselles use words that we know, to my ear it is exceedingly sweet. We go to theatres in the Evening & also to the Operas and other sights in Paris which are all very interesting. - I think Paris is the finest city that we have been in yet, and there is such a gaiety among the population, and the streets �are far superior to any other in Cleanliness, and also the Climate agrees with me better than any we have been in yet, and on the Whole I think I would like to spend a year in France before I return, but, I suppose I am to return sooner. I wrote to Libby at last mail, and shall write to Nell soon, for I like to receive answers to letters. And I shall also write to Mr. Bates, and the boys if I can have time. I am sorry Mr. Jasper and his wife have fallen out. but are quite amused with the Vida affair. I cannot write much longer. I can only add that Your brother is doing his work & has begun at it with right good earnest. I hope he will succeed in his Mission ^but have doubts. He enjoys very good health, & grows very fat. My great love to the boys, and a kiss for Sissy & her baby. Tell sissy I shall bring her home something very nice. Remember me to Mrs. Judd, & the Girls and Also to Mr. Bates. Mr. Judd & Lot join in sending great love, and believe me to be your “Keiki Aloha” Alexander [Page 4 of 4] His Majesty 1850 Mrs. Bates Honolulu The @ Honolulu Notes: 1.

And I know of no better channel through which to express those thanks than yourself as Chairman of the Committee of that Board of Missions which will always be looked to by Hawaiians as our religious Parents, Guardians and Friends. Not only do I thank you for the kindness received here through indirect means, but by presenting me with a �copy of that Word of God, which not very many years ago you gave to our people in their own language who were then heathens and benighted.
