San Francisco
10th October 1849
My Dear Sir,
As the Doctor and Alexander
has written all their letters for the Islands
I thought I ^would write a few lines to you
because the ship leave to morrow at an
early hour and having many other
letters to write to our friends at home
I cannot but scratch scratch a few lines.
We arrived here on the 1st October
after a passage of 21 days and two days
after the steamer left for Panama,
we were greatly disappointed in finding
her gone, and we are waiting here till a
we can obtain an opportunity for going
down to Panama. Wonder there is no
chance of going one before the first of the
November.
On arriving here we first
stopped at the United States Hotel, but we
did not make a very long stay there,
but while we were ^there we were quite satisfied
seeing all what San Francisco can boast

�and that is their gambling house tables
[Page 2 of 4]
And we have removed ^here to the American
House kept by Mr. Merrill &amp; Beach.
We find it a better lodging from the
other hotel, we pay $21.00 a week for
board and lodging.
For the first four days we arrived
here we had a very pleasant weather
but for the two days past we have
had rain and foggy weather. Our
house not being quite finished leaks
a great deal in one part of this house.
Yesterday it rained all day so we
were obliged to stay in the house all
day, our room leaking we found is
rather uncomfortable. We found it
quite cold though the Doctor feels it
more than we do, he been wrapped
up in his blanket blanket all day.
On our arrival here Mr. Eames
the American Commissioner called
on us. We are boarding together
here, from all what we have
seen of him, I think he is very
[Page 3 of 4]
gentlemanly man. The Doctor have had several
communications with him.
We are all enjoying a very good health though
the Doctor is troubled with little cold.
Yesterday the Steamer California arrived here
from Panama, she brought no mail.
Most of the merchants here quite disappointed
in not finding the mail, and most of them
were quite angry. However few papers have
arrived. I have not read it but I seen some
of the papers in our room for our perusal.
You very kindly offered your service
to take any letter from me to Miss Bernice

�when we left, if I have any to write I
will send it to your care, as you have
always have treated me and brother as a
father. I dont feel backkward at all in
calling you, is what a very awkward position
I am placed wi^th to her. To tell you the truth
I was engaged to her before I left the school
but my conduct upon leaving that establishment
[Page 4 of 4]
was so lose that she has given up the thought of
ever being united to me. I hope you will keep
this news to yourself and believe me again I am
Your sincere prince
Lot Kamehameha

American Hotel
San Francisco
October 31st 1849
My dear Mr. Bates,
Sir,
It is so late to night
&amp; I have been writing all day &amp; most of
all my time has been occupied this two
days past that I cannot but write
you a few lines to-night as I want
to finish up all my letters to-night for
the Islands, and to-morrow leave San
Francisco on the Steamer California. Capt
Budd for Panama. The Doctor knows him
very well having seen him at the Islands
in the Exploring Expedition.
Nothing of any importance has taken
place since I wrote you last worthy
of leting you know, except if I would say
of our we attending several times in the Square here
at the Democratic Meeting for electing a senator
&amp; representatives to the congress, and a
Governor for San Francisco. It was quite

�[Page 2 of 4]
an interesting time there, seeing that it was
first time that we ever saw, the people
of foreign country electing officers.
We have seen the Commodore Jones since
I wrote you last, and have been occupied
pretty much in visiting for the Governments
and the Doctor has done much some in favor
of his mission, in making a Treaty here
with Mr Eames, the Commissioner for the
Islands from the United States.
Though he dont expect to go to the Islands
because he expects to be superseded by another
^person and so he expects to stop here till he hears
from the United States.
I think he has received letters
from the United States, seeing that the
Steamer brought in the mail to-night.
I send with your letter here one
for Miss Bernice and my sister, please
take the trouble, to see if they have any
letters to write for me, &amp; please direct them
to Scheyler Livingston Esq New York.
Please remember me to Mr Bates &amp; all
the family, and believe me your sincere son
Lot Kamehameha
[Page 3 of 4]
P.S. I called on Messrs Steward &amp; Co and enquired if
you had a box there, and they said no, and at the
Expreso office which is in the same building.

Kule,
Greetings to you Mr. Chamberlain and Mrs. Chamberlain,
Greetings to all of you, the Missionaries, here is my message to you: the hymn is gone, as
is Luke and Adam, there are two pamphlets left, Exodus and Acts. Please furnish Adam, hymn,
Luke, Matthew and alphabet primers for the children. Grant me those pamphlets; do not withhold
them from me, but grant them to me. That is my message to you and when these pamphlets are
done, [we will] submit the return. That message to you is done. Here is another thought: I
weather the wind and storms, I smooth the rough roads, and the high places are brought down so
they will see the beauty of Jehovah. People have come from other lands so there is glory for all.
Regards to you all.
From me, Pule, in Kahana.

February 1830
Mr. Chamberlain,
Honolulu
[Two unintelligible words]
[Archivist’s note in pencil]
[Upside down]
Greetings to you, Mr. Ch[amberlain]
Notes:

�1. Kule - The meaning of this truncated word is uncertain as to whether it is a form of
address, month of the year, personal name, or a place.
2. Mi kamalena, a me Mikamalena wahine - Mr. Chamberlain and Mrs. Chamberlain. Levi
Chamberlain was a member of the second company of missionaries in 1823. He was the
superintendent of secular affairs for the mission and served as a missionary teacher. He
married Maria Patton after her arrival in Hawai‘i with the third company of missionaries.
3. hei mene/hei meni - Hīmeni, lit. hymn, may refer to a pamphlet of Hawaiian Bible
translations from the book of Psalms or Song of Solomon.
4. luka, akamu, ka pu kana, ka oi hana - Lit. Luke, Adam, Exodus, and Acts, refer to tracts
of translated and printed scripture. Adam likely refers to the book of Genesis.
5. hoihoi aku - Lit. return, this reference likely notes the return of money from the sale of
pamphlets rather than returning the actual pamphlets.
6. Bule - This is a variation of Pule, or Debora Kapule Kekaihaʻakūlou was among the first
people to learn reading and writing. At the time of this letter she was helping to run a
school in Kahana, Waimea, Kaua‘i.

February, Sabbath
Greetings to you Mr. and Mrs. Chamberlain,
Here is my message to you. All the Luke and the hymnals are gone, those being the
texts that were extensively sought. Send both of those texts, and when they are also gone,
the money will be sent back, once that is sent back, that previous text, Oihana Kowe, that is
what remains of the previous texts. Four dollars was received from the previous text.

�Provide us with Luke, with Hymnals, and hopefully you have the spelling primer. Do
provide that as well.
From K. Kapule

Mr. Chamberlain
Honolulu, O Naliipaio, deliver this letter.
Notes:
1. Mi Kamalani - Mr. Levi Chamberlain was a member of the second company of
missionaries. He was the superintendent of secular affairs for the mission and served
as a missionary teacher.
2. Luka - This is a reference to the book of Luke in the Bible, published as a separate
text.
3. Himeni - This could refer to hymnals, which were in demand, or could refer to either
the book of Psalms or the Song of Solomon from the Bible.
4. oihana Kowe - The word ʻOihana is the Hawaiian title for book of Acts in the Bible,
but the Kowe is an unclear reference.
5. K. Kapule - Deborah Kapule Kekaihaʻakūlou was among the first people to learn
reading and writing. At the time of this letter she was helping to run a school in
Kahana, Waimea, Kaua‘i.

Greetings to you, Chamberlain,
Here is my message to you. The class of ours is out of money. When I go up, I will wait for the
money. That message is done.
Here is this message to you. Provide me a stone slate. If there is a second slate, grant it to me.
I mention to you that if the hymnal happens to be complete, send it along with this.
