Day 122 – February 21, 1820

February 21, 1820 – no entry. (Thaddeus Journal)

Monday , February 21. A pleasant morning. It is delightful sailing in the Pacific, we have the trade winds which take us along at the rate of 7 or 8 miles an hour. In 25 days we hope to see Mauna-Noa, the highest mountain in Owhyhee. We are now nearly opposite Otahiti, and not many days sail from it. We should all like very well to call and see our brother & sister Missionaries there. (Lucia Ruggles Holman)

Feb. 21.-Several things respecting the mission appear in a much less favorable light than when I contemplated the subject in my native land. The circumstance which appeared so auspicious of the king’s returning with his influence cast in the scale of civilization and Christianity, now appears in the following light; that George Kaumualii is the illegitimate son of a chief. One reason why he sent him abroad, was to save him from falling a victim to the malice and jealousy of his wife. On his return, he has serious apprehensions that his life will be sought. It was said that Kamehameha, the king, was wishing that instructors might be sent there, promising to be a father to them. Poor man! Age has carried him almost to his grave, and his decease presents the prospect of a civil war, to decide which of the chiefs shall be his successor. (Lucy Goodale Thurston)
