Manuscript in brown ink on laid paper, 3 pp. on quarto bifolium, 175 x 150 mm; letter in the Tahitian language addressed to missionary Rev. John Orsmond at Tahiti, written entirely in the hand of an unidentified chief of Bora Bora, signed 'Porapora' at the foot; undated, but probably 1822 (see below); traces of original folds, some marginal repairs to verso of last side, but well preserved; tipped onto archival paper, bound in modern marbled boards, along with a manuscript note dated 3 March 1826 written and signed by René PrimevèreLesson, surgeon and naturalist on the Duperrey expedition, explaining that he is presenting the original letter (which had been given to him by Orsmond on Bora Bora) to Monsieur Berthevin, and stating that a French translation, together with a facsimile of the letter, has been published in the Journal des voyages(January 1826). A remarkable letter which manifestly demonstrates how rapidly and profoundly the Christian faith was able to penetrate an Eastern Polynesian society through the agency of the LMS missionaries in the first decades of the nineteenth century. Provenance: Rev. John Muggridge Orsmond (1788-1856) René PrimevèreLesson, naturalist and surgeon (1794-1849) B. Berthevin (ownership monogram stamp in blue) Henri Ledoux private collection, Paris (ownership monogram stamp in red) Libairie Clavreuil, Paris TRANSLATION Here is our English translation of Orsmond's own French translation of the letter, published inJournal des voyages,number 87, January 1826. (Note that Orsmond could not find a suitable translation for three of the Tahitian words). 'Dear friend, Mr Orsmond. Greetings to you, in the true God and in Jesus Christ, the true King, through whom the power of hell has been destroyed: this is the word we address you; it is that of all of us, brothers and sisters, because of our love for you, which accompanies you in your journey on the deep sea, and in your visit to the missionaries who live in Tahiti and Moorea. This is the prayer that we address to God for you from the bottom of our hearts. Since the gospel is no longer preached to us, we are like children who have no parents, like the bonito that cannot enjoy rest. We have the custom of participating in the sacrament [oma]; we must continue to do this. Our body alone is separated from you; our memory and love for you are not lost. Every day is spent in prayer so that we persist in our conduct on this earth of ours, we cling to the gospel of Jesus, and wepartially bear the evil; we are, like [otaha], struck by [atoa],exercising our patience with the evil customs that are on earth. Na Terena, and all the brothers and sisters, and also friends Tyerman and Bennet[i.e. Daniel Tyerman and George Bennet, visiting LMS missionary inspectors], we greet in Jesus; we have love for you both; your image is not lost to us; it is within us, and will never be lost until our bodies are mixed with dust, until we are reunited in heaven. Porapora.' THE EVANGELISATION OF BORA BORA SOCIETY In 1815, after victory over the traditionalist force in the battle of Fe'i Pi in Punaauia on the island of Tahiti, the Protestant party of Pomare II - who had converted to the Christian faith in 1812 - became supreme rulers of Tahiti. Pomare's warriors introduced Christianity to the nearby Bora Bora group in 1816. In 1818, the inhabitants of Bora Bora made a request to the LMS missionaries of nearby Huahine (86 km away) and Moorea (230 km distant) for religious books and pastors for the islands. Consequently, Rev. John Orsmond visited Bora Bora for the first time that same year, and helped to organise the first church there. He returned to Bora Bora in 1820-21, and again in 1823. The writer of the present letter expresses his sadness and regret at Orsmond's long absence from Bora Bora, and his concern that his people may lapse back into the 'evil customs' of traditional society. Indeed, he probably had not seen Orsmond since 1821. The reference to Tyerman and Bennet is helpful in providing an approximate date for the letter, since the two missionaries arrived in Tahiti in September 1821, and departed for New Zealand May 1824; and, as we know that Orsmond visited Bora Bora for a third time in 1823 (his journal of missionary activity in Bora Bora during 1823 is held in SOAS, University of London), we can assume with a fair degree of certainty that the letter was written at some point in 1822. ORSMOND AND THE NEW SOUTH WALES-TAHITI MISSIONARY CONNECTION Rev. John Muggridge Orsmond (1788-1856), a nonconformist trained theologian, was ordained in Portsmouth in December 1815. Accompanied by his wife Mary, he arrived in Sydney, New South Wales in December 1816 aboard the Surry. He was one of a significant group of LMS missionaries to work in or pass through the colony in the Macquarie era. Thesemen, among them L. E. Threlkeld, John Williams, William Ellis, Robert Bourne, David Darling, and George Platt, had been selected by the LMS to 'infuse life into the Pacific mission stations' following the declaration of peace in Europe in 1815 (Gunson, Neil. Australian reminiscences and papers of L. E. Threlkeld, missionary to the Aborigines 1825-1859. Australian Aboriginal Studies No. 40. Ethnohistory Series No. 2. Canberra : AIAS, 1974, p. v). During his brief time in Sydney, Orsmond was engaged in teaching Irish convicts to read and write; he also studied with the family of Dr. William Redfern. In February 1817 he departed Port Jackson for the Society Islands (Tahiti), whose indigenouspopulation had undergone a nominal conversion in 1815. TheOrsmonds arrived at Eimeo (Moorea) on 20 April 1817. In January 1819 Mary died in childbirth, and her baby a few days later; as it was not considered desirable for missionaries to carry out their work in a single state, Orsmondspent several months in Sydney in 1819-20, where he married Isabella, daughter of Isaac Nelson, an emancipist farmer and the first schoolteacher at Liverpool, on Christmas Day 1819.
