mis sionary to the Society islands 2800 miles directly south of Hawaii Desiring to reach more distant pa gan tribes he left his home in Raiatea and took passage on a trading vessel for Rarotonga 800 miles away Soon after his arrival he learned that ships scarcely ever touched at that island When his visit had exteided over several months with no sight of a sail he began to wonder how he should ever get back inally forced by the stress of the situation he de termined to make a vessel by which ho could leave the island The audacity of the plan amazed and fascinated the natives They took hold and helped him with a will Pieces of metal from old wrecks and an auger and pin cers with several hatchets and knives trophies of former dickerings by the natives with white sailors made up his whole outfit of tools He first erected a stone forge and anvil and tried to equip the estab lishment with a goatskin bellows As it was impossible to protect the leather from the rats he substituted a kind of rude wooden air pump an appavatjs which the natives greatly admired He never lacked hands to blow it Of cocoanut timber and bamboo he had a plenty Having no saw he made his planks by splitting trees and tho islanders smoothed them i after a fashion with the hatchets and knives Wood with a natural crook supplied the knees wooden pins served for nails and the caulking of the seams was Jone with banana stumps and cocoanut fiber in lieu of oakum I After long and patient toil the min I ister and his primitive workmen launched a ernft that rode the water right and tight Ark sug Bested itself to Mr Williams as a name I but he finally decided to call his craft the Messenger of Peace Somehow ho contrived with the I help of his native ciew to navigate tho vessel safely to his Raiatca
