We are confident that the expenditures which have been made, have all been made judiciously, and with no other design than that of benefiting seamen, that class of men to ■whom not only Honolulu, but also many other cities, are indebted for their prosperity. We have long been acquainted with you, and have seen your unwearied endeavors to promote their welfare, both spiritually and temporally—laboring with them both night and day, visiting them in their afflictions, comforting the sorrowing, and endeavoring to lead them in those ways wnich are full of peace. We would desire, however, in some more substantial way than that of words, to express our gratitude to you, and our appreciation of your labors, and we therefore beg of you to accept from us, in behalf of the Friend and Bethel, the following subscrip- tions, and with our best wishes for your happiness, and trusting that you may be long spared to labor in the field where Providence has placed you, we remain your devoted friends, - - - - -" -' - - Thomas Spenoer, W.
