A white common stone rectangle about 18 inches tall is marked with an inscription chiseled by a stone worker with the words of pioneer Hawai‘i missionary company leader Hiram Bingham. The graceful lettering reads in part: “LEVI PARSONS, died Jan. 16, 1823, aged 16 days.” The death of new-born Levi Parsons Bingham, the first-born child of the Rev. Hiram Bingham and his wife Sybil Moseley Bingham, resulted in a key turning point for the good in the relationship of the royal Hawaiian Ali‘i and the early missionary families stationed in Honolulu. The Binghams baptized the child, suffering from jaundice, a day before his death. The Sandwich Islands Mission Journal for January 15, 1823 reads: “At a meeting of the family, the king, queen and several chiefs, brother and sister B’s babe, called Levi Parsons was dedicated to Christ, by baptism. It was a truly interesting scene.” Kuhina nui Ka‘ahumanu and her husband King Kaumuali‘i offered condolences to the Binghams when Levi Parsons Bingham died the next day. Hiram’s journal gives us a clue to the story behind his son Levi’s name. “L. Parsons Bingham, at the age of sixteen days, passed away suddenly, as did the dear missionary in Alexandria, whose name he was expected to bear, and by which he had been baptized.” Levi Parsons earned a foreign missions minister-qualifying degree along with Hiram at Andover Theological Seminary in Massachusetts. But their most poignant tie lies in the life of a missions-minded school teacher named Sybil Moseley from Westfield, Massachusetts. Sybil and Hiram’s daughter Lydia Bingham Coan remembered the story of her mother meeting Hiram at Goshen: “The name attracted him at once. A fellow student at Andover designated to the mission in Palestine to which it was not thought wise by the ABCFM to send married men had told him that if he were allowed to take a wife Miss Sybil Moseley would be his choice. As the young man now heard the name, he earnestly scanned her face and mentally queried if it could be possible that the lady so esteemed by his friend, but supposed to be at the far west was here before him! Ah, yes! The Lord had led her there. Providence was wondrously opening another door.” Levi Parsons and his fellow missionary Pliny Fisk were the sole members of the pioneer Palestine Mission of the ABCFM. Levi died of consumption in Alexandria, Egypt on February 5, 1822 at age 29. His body was interred in the church yard of a Greek Orthodox convent in Alexandria alongside the dead of the English expatriate community who dwelt in Alexandria. News of his death reached the Binghams almost a year later in Honolulu through a report in a copy of the Missionary Herald sent aboard a ship carrying mission supplies headed for Hawai‘i. Hiram wrote of his son’s burial, “As strangers and sojourners…we felt the affecting necessity of asking of the rulers a burying-place among them. A spot of ground near the church was, according to our wishes, readily granted us. There, with mournful but not desponding feelings, we broke the ground to deposit the beautiful flower that had fallen, where we expected the mission family would, one after another, be gathered around it, and where we should choose to be buried when our work is done. The funeral services and burial took place on the Sabbath, the 19th of January. The king and his principal chiefs, male and female, several foreign residents and others, assembled at the mission house and walked in procession to the church, where Mr. Thurston preached an appropriate sermon. We then drew around the grave, and with tenderness laid the little sleeper in its lonely, silent bed….” Thus was established the site of today’s Kawaiaha‘o missionary cemetery plot.

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] 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.

Typescript: [Page 1 of 2] 214 Revere House Boston, May 24, 1850 Dear Sir. Before leaving this city, I feel it to be my duty to render thanks to those who have so welcomed us, and who have so received us as it were in open arms, to those who feel so much, interest in the welfare and happiness of the Sandwich Islands, and also to those who have not only taken an interest, but taken a hand in the great work of civilizing the earth. 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. I shall keep that Holy volume as a token of remembrance, and not only the book shall I keep, but I will try and follow the instructions which were imparted to me on its presentation. I remain Sir Yours very truly Liholiho Hon. Wm J.
