(Continued)
In estimating the expenses of the Boarding School I
hav e added 2 cents per yard to the cost price o
f the cloth
purchased at Honolulu, &amp; 12 per cent to the money appropriated
to the school, also to the price of the few articles which I
purchased at Honolulu for it.
In making out the value of Mr. W ’s canoes, the articles
paid for one are set the same as they are charged on your books,
&amp; for the other I have taken it for granted that the Brown cot­
ton received by the Clarion was about 13 cts per yd. &amp; the
calico 15.
(Mr. &amp; Mrs. Lyman have, during the year,)

We wish you to understand that the preceding statement
cannot be used as a guide in making out our annual acc't. Not
far from 140 dollars of the articles charged on the bill were
expended
previously to April 30th &amp; went into our last
year's acc’t.
A part of the sum appropriated to Station
schools was to pay debts remaining from last year which were in­
cluded in our last annual acc ’t.
More than 30 dollars of th e
sum, new, set to the building department was included in our
acc ’t for the year ending with April 30th 1837,
The order
given to Mr. Mack belongs entirely to old acc’t, &amp; the amount
of it should be added to the item of general expense of the
station for last year; the annual acc’t having specified the
sums to be charged under each of the other heads.
There are 3 prs. shoes &amp; 2 Axe handles entered on the
bill m ore than we have seen, &amp; more than have been specified on
any former bill.
Were they not entered twice by mistake ?
Respecting the coat we know nothing.
Mrs. Lyman rec’d in June
1 piece 5/4ths Bro. Sheeting 34 yds.
The bill of articles,
sent to the Station at the time, mentioned 2 pieces 34 &amp;
yds. from which it was inferred that one of the other fami­
lies at the station had received the second piece.
The last
bill is the same as the one first sent, but on inquiry it ap­
pears that no one at the station has any knowledge of the
second piece.
Feb. 9th

The preceding is a copy of our report so far as it
related to the articles entered on the bill of Dec.11th.
The 6 boxes of Soap which were omitted on that bill, you will
please to charge one of each kind to each of our three families.
Some explanations, contained in our report respecting arti­
cles which we supposed to have been omitted by mistake on the bill,

COPY

(Report by B .D. Lyman, Hilo, Jan. 5, 1838, to Messrs, Chamberlain)
Castle,

Continued.)

I do not new copy, because It appears from Bro. Chamberlain's
of Jan’y 8th that they were omitted by design, &amp; that no ac­
count of them is requested.
The report was sent by the Sch ooner of Gov. Adams, &amp; we
have recently learned our letters were all lost when she went
down at Kawaihae.
The report wa s approved by the members of
the Station.
I suppose it unnecessary to be at the trouble to
obtain signatures anew.
It may be that a letter, forwarded more recently than the
report which I wrote in reply to yours of Dec, 22nd/37 &amp;
Jan'y 8th/38 contains allusions to things in the report
which I have not thought it necessary to copy.
My impression
is (paper torn away) that if such is the fact; yo
u
will
still be able to separate the relevant from the irrelevant mat­
ter of that letter,
I retained no copy, &amp; do not recollect
distinctly its contents.
Yours

truly,

�The Committee appointed- to take into consideration the
difficulties of maintaining the Sections of East &amp; North
Hawaii &amp; to devise means of obviating them beg leave to submit
the following resolutions:
1. That the brethren at Hilo should ever be remembered
by us as r e siding at a station peculiarly lonely &amp; secluded &amp;
entitled on that account not only to a
era &amp; sympathies but also to every reasonable effort which we
can make to alleviate the self-denials of such a situation.
2. That as a great expense would be required to secure
the regular visit of a vessel to Kilo, we therefore recommend
as some little alleviation to the seclusion of the station &amp; as
a means of supplying some of its lesser wants, that a line of
communication be established
by means of car­
riers &amp; canoes between Hilo &amp; the other stations on
Hawaii, &amp; if practicable, between Hilo &amp; Lahaina on the Island
of M a u i &amp; also between Lahaina &amp; Oahu whenever expedient.
3. In view of the distressing circumstances of Hilo &amp;
of many other portions of the Sandwich Islands for want of
medical old, now more especially felt than heretofore in conse­
quence of the contemplated return of Dr. Chapin to America &amp;
such failure of brother Baldwin’s health, as to require
a removal from his Station, resolved; that a committee be chosen
to draw up an appeal to the Board for more physicians &amp; that a
copy of it be sent across the continent by the opportunity,
which it is expected, will soon offer, &amp; that a duplicate of it
be forwarded in the Hellespont by the route of Canton, and that
should, a physician, or physicians arrive that we consider the
Station at Hilo as having a demand for the first supply.

5 . T h a t whereas, in accordance with the approbation ex­
pressed by the Mission at their last general meeting of the return
of Ms.Goodrich &amp; his family to America, he has signified to our
secular agent his desire to embark the coming Fall &amp; requested
that enquiries might be made for a favourable opportunity of so
doing; &amp; considering that there is no reasonable prospect that
an opportunity will be presented of embarking directly from H ilo,
but good reason to expect that such an opportunity as desired
will be offered at this place; &amp; considering also that Providence
precludes the possibility of sending a physician to Hilo, in ac­
cordance with his application to bestow the medical attention
which his family will need in the month of August, therefore re-

�(Of Resolutions, dated June 25,1835, and signed by Levi )

solved that our secular agent be instructed to procure for M r .
Goodrich &amp; his family, as seen as practicable, a conveyance to
this place.
6.
In view of the inland situation of the Station on
N orth Hawaii, subjecting it to great inconvenience in the re­
ception of supplies, considering the want of a house at the
place f or the comfort of a missionary family, &amp; considering
also that it is extremely undesirable that a family should re­
side alone so remote from any other station &amp; that with our
present numbers it cannot be reinforced, therefore resolved
that for the present the Station be relinquished.
