I wish to be His son. " The priestess, his sister, came soon after- wards, and they remained here several months for instruction. They were then about seventy years old, but they imbibed the New Testament spirit so thoroughly that they became as gentle, loving, and quiet as little children. After a long proba- tionary period they were baptized, and after several years of pious and lowly living, they passed gently and trustfully away. The old church which was the scene of these earlier assem- bl...ages came down with a crash after a night of heavy rain, the large timbers, which were planted in the moist earth after the fashion of the country to support the framework, having become too rotten to bear the weight of the saturated thatch. Without a day's loss of time the people began a new church. All were volunteers, some to remove from the wreck of the old building such timbers as might still be of service ; some to quarry stone for a foundation, an extravagance never before dreamed of by an islander; some to bring sand in gourd-shells upon their heads, or laboriously gathered in the folds of bark-cloth aprons ; some to bring lime from the coral reefs 20 feet underwater; whilst the majority hurried to the forest belt, miles away on the mountain side, to fell the straightest and tallest trees.
