Title A name given to the resource Chamberlain, Maria - Journal - 1854-1857 Description An account of the resource <p style="margin-bottom: 0in; line-height: 200%; text-align: center;">Maria Chamberlain</p> <p style="margin-bottom: 0in; line-height: 200%; text-align: center;">March 19, 1803 - January 19, 1880</p> <p style="margin-bottom: 0in; line-height: 200%;">Maria Patton submitted herself to become a candidate for the missionaries on October 15, 1926, believing she would save Native Americans. Instead, she found herself on the Parthian sailing to the Sandwich Islands. Maria became an exception to the rule as she did not have a husband when she set sail on her mission. Maria kept a journal from 1825 to 1859, that detailed her biggest life experiences and challenges.<br /><br />Maria started her journal in 1825 when she was still in Salisbury, Pennsylvania and not yet apart of the mission. She would detail almost everyday of her life, focusing most of her attention on Sunday’s as she would talk about the sermon she heard or her time at church. She would include the mundane aspects of everyday life to her exciting journey to the Sandwich Islands. In her everyday life, Maria took care of her eight children and would entertain visiting guests with a hot cup of tea. Sea captains to royalty to fellow missionaries were always welcomed in the home of the Chamberlains. Since Maria and Levi were close to the royalty, they were updated on political affairs of the government. She wrote how Madam Boki prepared for war as she did not want to give up Oahu. In the end, other chiefs were able to calm down Madam Boki and major conflict was avoided. Maria would end her journal in 1859, 34 years after first starting in 1825.</p> Rights Information about rights held in and over the resource If you would like permission to publish or reproduce this material, please send your requests to archives@missionhouses.org Publisher An entity responsible for making the resource available Hawaiian Mission Children's Society Library at the Hawaiian Mission Houses Historic Site and Archives https://hmha.missionhouses.org/files/original/0f151706e33bff8ba731d7f3649a04aa.pdf 3e0e19a1cce909b490f9ec6918de7cf1 PDF Text Text *, --, luJI - , \ iUJ_i to t:iC ~: r:- \.) •• J • �.iaria I'.

Title A name given to the resource Chamberlain, Maria - Journal - 1857-1859 Description An account of the resource <p style="margin-bottom: 0in; line-height: 200%; text-align: center;">Maria Chamberlain</p> <p style="margin-bottom: 0in; line-height: 200%; text-align: center;">March 19, 1803 - January 19, 1880</p> <p style="margin-bottom: 0in; line-height: 200%;">Maria Patton submitted herself to become a candidate for the missionaries on October 15, 1926, believing she would save Native Americans. Instead, she found herself on the Parthian sailing to the Sandwich Islands. Maria became an exception to the rule as she did not have a husband when she set sail on her mission. Maria kept a journal from 1825 to 1859, that detailed her biggest life experiences and challenges.<br /><br />Maria started her journal in 1825 when she was still in Salisbury, Pennsylvania and not yet apart of the mission. She would detail almost everyday of her life, focusing most of her attention on Sunday’s as she would talk about the sermon she heard or her time at church. She would include the mundane aspects of everyday life to her exciting journey to the Sandwich Islands. In her everyday life, Maria took care of her eight children and would entertain visiting guests with a hot cup of tea. Sea captains to royalty to fellow missionaries were always welcomed in the home of the Chamberlains. Since Maria and Levi were close to the royalty, they were updated on political affairs of the government. She wrote how Madam Boki prepared for war as she did not want to give up Oahu. In the end, other chiefs were able to calm down Madam Boki and major conflict was avoided. Maria would end her journal in 1859, 34 years after first starting in 1825.</p> .

I On the 11th day of March, 1~8, in the city of Honolulu, the Rev. Asa Thurston fell asleep. He closed his eyes upon the bright sunlight of his dear Hawaii nei, and the celestial glory burst upon his sight. He laid aside the staff' of his old age and grasped the unfading- crown and the palm of victory. He ceased from his life of unintermitted mission. ary labor, and went hence to serve his Lord day and night in the heavenly temple. Near his E'artbly home the ever.surging Pacific, emblem of eternity, beat upon the shifting 8ands. Now he listens to the steady dasn of Ihe endless ages at the ftlet oC the Ancient of Days. He walks no longer under the fierce heat of , bllt in the genial the Sun of from our gaze, we , write this me IlS 01\8 who glorified his divine Saviottr, Ilnd 'in 'whom the grace of God was magnified. I HIS HEROrS~I. He sailed out of Boston harbor in the brig' Thaddeus in October, 1819. His face was set toward the Sandwich Islands. The Duff had carried the Gospel light 10 the Society group ill (he South Pacific; but in the north deep da r/,ness brooded. Out oC it rose the dealb-cry of Cook. Imagination easily sl<etched (he horrors of the land where a savage club laid low the English navigator. A Hawa iian lad, brought by a sea-captain to ew Haven, lold of the idolalry of hiS countrymen, and besought some to hasten thither with the good new' of God. IoWw~Bing- Htrllm ham, Asa Thurston, and fil'e laymen, with their wives, beard this boy';; tOUfhing appeaJ, and in allSlVer girded themselves for their grand venture of falth. Foreign" ;ssion8 ... ber were not then popular. The chilly dal, when the sa ils of the Thaddeus were furled, typified the coldness of the Christian heart toward the hea then world. But these pioneers were horn herMs. Thurston , by his physical strength and courage, had won, }ears beCore, at Yale College, the much. prized staff of" bully." With a moml cour. age and strength more SUblime, he and his companions kissed their brides. and led them from Ihe hymeneal altar to dwell in mid. orean amid savag-c i landers. Our hearts beat quick a~ we l~ecnll.the heroism of those young men and women putting America be. hind them to ''lin n natiol1 to Christ. The American Board of Commi~sioners for For. eign Missions seut them out. For the results of (heir work the Lord be praised! / - �ROYAL J{AILUA. • It was Thurston's lot to labor at Kailua,~ 0-the island of Hawaii. What a pansh for a novice to handle! It was a filthy village of thatched huts, built upon beds of indurated lava, on which the fervent sun poured his furnace-heat every day in every year. It nestled amid a grove of cocoanut treps, and reached down to the shore, whither came rolling in the white-crested billows. Behind it rose the lofty volcanic peak of Hualalai. Standing at its base one could trace the perennial green of the forests reaching nigh unto the summit, deeply scored with hideous black tracks of lava reaching unto the sea. The luxuriant foliage hid from distant view gaping fissures, thirty-nine extinct craters, the grim ruins of the temple of Umi' and other tokens of wild desolation. Further do.wn the coast rose the loftier peaks of Mauna Loa and Mauna Kea, 13,000 feet high. snow-capped, fierce fires raging within, and now and then breaking out with quakings. roarings, mighty rushings, and terrific hissings, as the lava threw itself red-hot into the sea. Very solemn to dwell in such a land with these volcanoes ever in sight! Tben Kailua was, at the time of Thurston's landing, the residence of the king. He was a profligate, and the royal city was the fountain of the kingdom·s pollution. Here the talm had been broken and the idols destroyed, that there might be no check to iniQuit. The ruins of heflth~ temples were everywhere about, heart-sickening to behold. fl nd heathen vices were enthroned in every hut and . stalked abroad in every village. Men, WOlllen and child ren were like the volcanoes. Raging fires of wickedness within l.roke out ever in desolating flows . In a thatched hut in the midst of this physical desolateness and moral degradation, Thurst'On and his wife found their earliest Hawaiian home. Amid such scenes their first-born came to them. Here the Go~pel was first pl'eached for the regeneration of Hawaii nei and the salvation of mllny thousand souls. HARE DEVOTION. When nearly half II century had pas~ed, partial paralysis compelled thl! heroic T!-'urst'On to rest from his toil. He was no 1011,;"r young. His locks were gray, and grand.children made more happy his home. During th is long pPriod he did not once leave the Islands. Others carne lind went, but he remained the tireless evangelist. Tropical heat did not abate his vigor. Long journeys 011 foot over lava tracts did not exhaust his st.rength. The hardness and wickedness of the heathen heart did not discourage hillJ . Preaching in season and out of season did not weary him. The lov f Christ COIlstrained him, and he did not pause in his labor until hiS body cried out, "It is enough." �THE VE:-IERABLE PIONEER. • During these fifty vear~ he bore 0 u active part in all the .rem kable changes which God wrought anlOll the Hawaiians. The Idng and the common people alike felt his influence. His huge chltlr~h building, within a stone's throw of the royal residence, attested this. When thc capital was removed to Honohlu, he did not follow tile king, but tbe common people still heard him gladly. We eRn imagine the grateful joy of his soul I as, year by year, he saw the heathell people become Christian and the obsolute de~potism changed into a constitutional monarchy. It was our privilege to spelld a few days under his hospitable roof after paralysis had disabled him . We can not soon forget his venerable form, crowned with flowillg ~ilver locks, hi:! gentle, modest spirit, his earnestness of soul, his simple faith, his calm expectation of the future. The king rnightwell bow before him. and the young do him reverence, as one of the fathers of the kingdom. W hen he landed, Karnehflmeha n. was a hnlf-clad savage, dwelling in a filrhy hilt, rioting in degradation. When he went hence, Kamehameha V. re~ided in a stone palace within sound of the church-g-oing bell, with every appliance of modern civllization and Christianity about him. Let unbelieving anti half-hearted Christian mell sneer at Foreign l\li siolls. jf they will. One life like that of Aga Thurstoll, t>o sublime, so selfsacrificing, so sur.cessful, fill' olltshines any diilllJond t.hattbey can bring fro II I t.hcir wines. I ~!,,=-7Jf"'NJ . Rift"'" 8~1 9Pi.e.£. After paralysis came upon him, he went to California in quest of health. There, thougll nearly eighty years of age, he first saw a railroad and telegraph. The lVorld had been busy with its invention::; while he was absorbed ill his chosen work. When he raturned to Honolulu, to await th· J,ord's :SUIlIlIiOIlS, he must. have llIu:,;ed tl!i£erior facilitv ror mIssionary wor - IV Ie the ord gives III our day. Young men! ponder the life of Asa Thun:ton. Emulate his faith and zeal. U unumbered millions call to YOll for the bread of life. The Gospel is in }'our hands as a power.

Q",p sp\l(I,IJ Q9WP91il US fA TO CHRISTIAN WOMEN. \Ve may be pardoned one word of reference to Asa Thurston':; widow. :She shared his trials, went with him in his long missionary tours on foot, and equaled him in heroism. She taught the Hawaiiau men to iove their wives and their Sa\'iour; the Hawaiian women to fear God and honor their husbands; the Hawaiian child ren to obey the Lord and their parents. :So she carried into the huts of that <.lark lanu tbose blessed words-Love, Virtue, Home, Jesus, Heaven. i\lallY an Hawaiian household to-day blesses God for the g-ifts sent bv her..

"-PROV. xvi: 31., No ordinary event is that which calls us together in solemn assembly to-day. Two races unite to pay a grateful tribute of respect to the departed patriarch of a mis~ion which has been the best gift of the ori'e race to the other. Forty-eight years ago this very month, on the 31st at. arch, 1820, the deceased reached the spores of Hawaii with the pioneer mission<Il:If;l~ sent out by the American Board to r yangelize these then benighted and barbarous islands. 'fhis day of his burial is just one month le~s than forty-eight years from the day when he and the still surviving companion of his earthly pilgrimage (who has cared for him so tenderly during the closing years of his life) were stationed at Kailua, the ancient residence of the Hawaiian kings. And there, for more than forty years, he cont,inued to reside and to labor as the hOOflred pastor of a large and very important parish. The instructor, for a time, of both Kamehameha II. and Kamehameha III., his influence upon the conduct and disposition, especially of the latter, must have been very great, at a period in Hawaiian history when it was most important fo secure the good will of those highest in authority; and when th~ word of thfl king was law and his will \e absolute. But, as is ever the case with .1( faithful minister, his influence was great~ b and h is usefulness most apparent among th \ masses of the common people. Never once leaving the Islands for forty years. he was honored of natives and foreigners alike as a faithful, patient, persistent worker, steadfast, and abiding in one stay far beyond the ordinary duration of missionary lire. Indeed I know not that in the entire history of missions a like instance is recorded of one remaining so long upon ·the field :and at a single post, during the life lillie of'a whole generation, without revisiting the .home of his childhood or visiting any other land. Only when advancing age and ted strokes of paralysis had rend of service; only lost its run. and his begun to gi ve a consent to res em spend his city. time of his to our chilvencr'\bl f . �• and that beniguant ntenance, u perfect ' picture of the patr1a and prophets of I olden times not SUOII ed from the mem- I ory. InJill1cy with it 'b~~~ing beauty and its fragrance of a new 11'(\1' is lovely in its gentleness and innocence. Youth with its vigor of ripening ambitions and n.aturing powers is interesting indeed; but no sight on earth is Illore impressil"e than a beautiful . . old age. In his case the ~utward appearance was but the truthful 011 0/ the inward life; a calm nnd repose of faith; no sollcitude; a a rest in Jesus sublime quietude ich felt no fear. The hoary head a crown of glory. if it be found in t of righteousness. But he died not of old age. With marvelous physical powers, per ps unsurpassed in his I Jay by those of any 0 er resident upon these I Islands, whether natil!e or foreigner, he might isease, have surVived but for the attacks 0 a century. The bra and nervous system were first to giv~ 'ay fore his hearing was impaired. his ey eCIl'£e dim, or his natural force abated. That 1>'e1l compacted and well proportioned frame seemed too strong to be torn down even when the mind had ceased · to maintain a logical succession of thougbts, and his conversation, a strange mixture of Hawaiian, English and Latin, had for the most part cea coherent. Those of were permitted to visit him near the life cannot soon forget tbose more lucid when for a little the soul reasserted its power over the tongue, and with indescribable pathos and earneet- I ness he exclaimed, ., 1\1y love for Jesus is very great." Nor can I soon forget tbat responsive smile with which he gave u~sent to what was said of the preciousness of Christ to tbe believer's soul, when his tongue could no longer give utterance to his thoughts, nnd his eyes were already glassy with the film of death. Governed by principle, and not by impulse, in his habits of devotion, he persisted in leading at family prayers as a in his own frame senhousehold, till be could no at to the last tences correctly; and day of his life, him more restomission of the less and uneasy regular family devotions at the appointed houl', nor did anything soothe and comfort him so much as prayer, Though remarkably taciturn all through life, yet he was haT({ly less remarlm.ble for 1\ quiet humor which \\"'as kept in subjection to bis Christian dignity, while it. did much to make him ngreeuble in social life. and to make him buoyant in spirit under all the trials of missiOll3rv And this cheerful ess charactertemper and Christiao ntry was lost ized him to tbe la upon him even y of the past became a blank. ot recognize hi!' family or his His peculiarly jned voice, even when age k. ~iorm~wl~at shattered it, I I �-----------------~ - . --- - ~--~--- nor the congregahis singing out the general erwas greatly improved by that voice of manly power, yet of y sweetness, to which we shall listen, in the service of song, never morc. Alas. one more praying voice is silenced, one more loving heart is cold, oue more tongue so eloquent in praise is sliU. But though the organs of Iltterance fail to co mmunicate his thoughts and feelings to mortal ears, who can tell the higher ble£sedness of that intimate communion he bolds with Him who planted the ear and who knows our thoughts before we utter them. That powerful frame, that manly form, is shut up within the narrow house of Death, but his Treed spirit is not holden of hiS dominion. The weary body rests, but the soul has entered upon a career of higher and holier activity. That hoary head shall :loon be a buried crown: but how far are it beauty and excellence tran5cended by that ('rown of glory which he wears who already reigns with Christ, consecrated a king and a priest unto God. And there are stars in that crown. How many already garnered in glory, while ascribing all the honor to Christ, the sin atoning Lamb, have occasion to welcome him with peculiar joy as, under Christ, the faithful shepherd and bishop of their souls. What a debt of gratitude do the vast congregation \vorshiping in this sanctwuy owe to the God of all grace for the services of the departeo. Their t.eloved pastor, whose absence to.day ;s so much regretted, could speak eloquently to his people of his personal mdebtedness to him whom be greatly honored. and tenderly loved as a spiritual father. For it was to the blessing of God upon a sermon prearhed by Father Thurston that he ascribed that personal interest in religion which resulted in his conversion. So is the life of the deceased reproduced not only in the missionary life of his own son laboring upon another island of this group, nor yet alone in the lives of many natives ~tilllivjng who mourn for him as for I a father, but with redoubled power and energy is it reproduced in the ministry of hi:n who now occupies a central position of influence as pastor of the great congregation accustomed to worship here. The materials are wanting for a complete record of the life of the deceased. but his record is on high. And what a life as it is recorded there, and as and ano-els COIltemplate it. W of honor and usefulness as even itted to see it.
