Received two letters; ane from Br. Tanner, and one from Br. Uaua saying that he had not yet been to see the king about the land where our house stands, as he is sick. Br. Tanner speaks of introducing a plan at conference to set on foot the purchasing of a vessel to own for the good of the mission and etc. Employed in shoemaking until 4 o’clock. Brs. Woodbury and Green arrived about 12 noon from Molokai on their way to conference, they are both well; two native priests also came with them, Brs. Maiolo and Kahiki. There has been a good work done over there since the 24th of July last, some 60 or 70 have been baptised since the 24th. The work is in a prosperous state over there at present.
5 o’clock met at Nahakuela’s. Br. Woodbury spoke first on the fruits of spirit and etc. I then gave liberty for the native strangers to speak. Several spoke, and spoke well. I then made a few remarks and closed.
