+KALLIHIRUA THE ESQUIMAUX.
+
+
+Kallihirua, notwithstanding the disadvantages of person (for he was
+plain, and short of stature, and _looked_ what he was,--an Esquimaux),
+excited a feeling of interest and regard in those who were acquainted
+with his history, and who knew his docile mind, and the sweetness of
+his disposition.
+
+Compliance with the precept in the Old Testament, "Love ye the
+stranger[1]," becomes a delight as well as a duty in such an instance
+as that about to be recorded, especially when we consider the
+affecting injunction conveyed in the Epistle to the Hebrews, "Be not
+forgetful to entertain strangers, for thereby some have entertained
+angels unawares[2]."
+
+[Footnote 1: Deut. x 18.]
+
+[Footnote 2: Heb. xiii 2.]
+
+
+
+
+Her Majesty's Ship "Assistance"
+
+
+Erasmus Augustine York, whose native name was Kallihirua, was brought
+to England on board Her Majesty's ship "Assistance," Captain Erasmus
+Ommanney, in 1851. Captain Ommanney was second in command of the
+expedition under the orders of Captain Horatio Austin, C.B., which was
+dispatched in May, 1850, in search of the missing vessels of Sir John
+Franklin, the "Erebus" and "Terror". Franklin had quitted England on his
+perilous and fatal enterprise in May, 1845.
+
+Much interest was attached to the young Esquimaux, who was considered
+to be about sixteen years of age in August, 1850. He was one of a
+tribe inhabiting the country in the vicinity of Wolstenholme Sound, at
+the head of Baffin's Bay, in 76° 3' north latitude, the nearest
+residents to the North Pole of any human beings known to exist on the
+globe. He was the only person ever brought to this country from so
+high a northern latitude. His tribe was met with by the late Sir John
+Ross, during his voyage in 1818, and was by him called the Arctic
+Highlanders.
+
+
+
+
+Cape York
+
+
+It appears that, when the expedition under Captain Austin's command
+was passing Cape York, in August, 1850, after its release from the ice
+in Melville Bay, natives were seen from the "Assistance".
+Captain Ommanney went with the "Intrepid" (one of the vessels
+comprising the expedition) to communicate with them, when it was
+ascertained that H.M.S., "North Star," had passed the winter in the
+neighbourhood. The fate of this vessel was then a matter of anxiety,
+as by her instructions she had been cautioned to avoid passing the
+winter in those regions. The tribe thus discovered consisted of only
+three families, residing in their summer huts at Cape York. As no
+steamer had ever before found its way to these seas, it was
+interesting to watch the impression upon the singular beings now
+visited, when they descended into the engine-room. The large furnaces
+and machinery astonished them. The latter, on being put in motion,
+made them take to their heels with fright, and they ran out of the
+engine-room on deck as fast as they could.
+
+
+
+
+Kallihirua on board the "Assistance"
+
+
+It was after this first interview that the report was raised of the
+massacre of two ships' crews in 1846. Captain Ommanney, accompanied by
+Captain Penny, with his interpreter, immediately returned to Cape
+York, and had a long interview with the natives. They most
+emphatically denied the whole statement, adding, that no ship had
+ever been on their coasts except the "North Star," and passing
+whalers. Then it was, that Kallihirua consented to show Captain
+Ommanney where the "North Star" had wintered, and to join the ship,
+for the purpose of being useful as an interpreter, in the event of
+their meeting with any natives during the search for the missing
+expedition under Sir John Franklin. Parting (for awhile, as he
+supposed) with his immediate relatives, and with the only people whom
+he knew on earth, he threw himself into the hands of strangers in
+perfect confidence. Having arrived on board the "Assistance," he put
+off his rough native costume, submitted to the process of a good
+washing, and, being soon clad in ordinary European clothing, which was
+cheerfully contributed by the officers, the young Esquimaux with much
+intelligence performed the duty of pilot to the place where the "North
+Star" had wintered.
+
+
+
+
+The Esquimaux Graves
+
+
+On entering Wolstenholme Sound[3], Kallihirua, or, as he was
+familiarly called, KALLI, directed Captain Ommanney and the officers
+to the late winter-station of his tribe, the spot having been
+abandoned in consequence of some epidemic, probably influenza, which
+had carried off several persons. On entering the huts, a most
+distressing sight presented itself. A heap of dead bodies, about
+seven, in a state of decomposition, lay, one over the other, clad in
+their skin-clothing, as if suddenly cut off by the hand of death. The
+survivors, from fear of infection, had left the remains of their
+relatives unburied. It was an affecting scene in such a remote and
+desolate region, separated from all communication with the human race.
+Near the huts was the burial-ground, with several well-formed graves
+of heaps of stones. On one lay a spear, which one of the officers of
+the "Assistance" took up, to bring away. Some of the crew were
+examining the graves to see whether they contained any of our missing
+countrymen. Seeing this, Kalli ran up to the officer, and, with tears
+and entreaties, as well as he could make himself understood, begged
+him and the men to desist from the work of desecration.
+
+[Footnote 3: For Wolstenholme Sound and Cape York see the annexed map.]

+
+
+
+
+Kallihirua's Family
+
+
+Poor Kalli's lamentations were quite heartrending. His feelings were,
+of course, respected, the graves were at once built up again, and the
+spear replaced. Captain Ommanney learnt afterwards from Kalli, that
+it was his father's grave, over which the spear had been placed by
+friends of the deceased. They have a tradition that in a future state
+the means of hunting are still required, and, because in this world
+the search of food is the chief object of life, the hunting-lance is
+deposited on the grave.
+
+The young stranger subsequently lived on board the "Assistance". He
+was placed under the care of the serjeant of Marines, who instructed
+Kalli in the rudiments of reading and writing, and to whom he became
+much attached. By his amiable disposition he made himself welcome and
+agreeable to all the expedition, and, as, in consequence of the state
+of the ice, no opportunity was offered of landing him on his native
+shores, on the return of the vessel past York Inlet, he was brought to
+England. The leaders of the expedition conferred the surname of York
+upon him, from the locality in which he was found. To this the name of
+Erasmus was prefixed, after that of the gallant Captain Ommanney.
+
+
+
+
+Lines on "Kallihirua in the Ship"
+
+
+Kalli was a twin. His father, whose grave has been mentioned, had been
+dead for some years, but he had a mother living, of whom he often
+spoke with duty and affection. His father's name was Kirshung-oak. His
+mother's Sa-toor-ney. He had two sisters living with their mother. A
+touching circumstance, connected with his first introduction to our
+countrymen, has been adverted to, which gave rise to the following
+lines by the writer of this memoir. They were published in the "Gospel
+Missionary," in the year of the arrival of Kallihirua, and are
+supposed to be spoken by a British sailor on board the "Assistance"--
+
+
+KALLI IN THE SHIP
+
+A frost, like iron, held the air,
+ A calm was on the sea,
+But fields of ice were spreading there,
+ And closing on our lee.
+
+Our ship half bound, as if aground,
+ Was scarcely seen to go.
+All hands on deck were gather'd round
+ The little ESKIMAUX.
+
+For he had come amongst our crew,
+ A week or so before,
+And now we knew not what to do
+ To put him safe ashore.
+
+Poor lad, he strain'd his eyes in vain,
+ Till tears began to come,
+And tried if he could see again
+ His mother and his home.
+
+The Captain then saw through his glass
+ The Inlet, and the Bay,
+But floes of ice, as green as grass,
+ And icebergs block'd the way.
+
+"Up with the sail!--the wind's awake!"
+ Hark to the Captain's call,
+"I see, my boys, we shall not make
+ York Inlet, after all."
+
+We look'd upon the swarthy lad,
+ Then look'd upon each other,
+And all were sure that he was sad
+ With thinking of his mother.
+
+We cheer'd him up, and soon he grew
+ So useful and so kind,
+The crew were glad, and Kalli too,
+ He was not left behind.
+
+He learn'd to make the best of it,
+ And now, by time and care,
+They tell us he can read a bit,
+ And say an easy prayer.
+
+O Kalli, fail not, day by day,
+ To kneel to God above;
+Then He will hear you when you pray,
+ And guard you with his love.
+
+Go on, my friend, in years and grace,
+ Your precious time employ,
+And you will pass, in wisdom's race,
+ The idle English boy.
+
+Nay, if you learn and practise too
+ The lessons of your youth,
+Some heathen tribes may gain from you
+ The light of Gospel truth.
+
+
+
+
+Description of the Esquimaux
+
+
+It may here be interesting to say a few words respecting the people
+who inhabit the gloomy abodes whence Kallihirua came, and where he had
+passed the greater part of his life.
+
+[Illustration: ENTRANCE TO A SNOW-HUT]
+
+
+
+
+Admiral Beechey's Account
+
+
+"The characteristic features of the Esquimaux," says Admiral Beechey,
+"are large fat round faces, high cheek-bones, small hazel eyes,
+eyebrows slanting like the Chinese, and wide mouths." They are
+generally under five feet high, and have brown complexions. Beechey,
+in his Narrative of a Voyage to Behring's Strait, &c., in H.M.S.
+"Blossom," gave a curious and particular description of the habits and
+customs of the Esquimaux, their wretched hovels, or "yourts,"
+snow-dwellings, and underground huts, and the general want of
+cleanliness in their persons and dwellings.
+
+Speaking of a tribe which he visited, he says, "We found them very
+honest, extremely good-natured and friendly. Their tents were
+constructed of skins, loosely stretched over a few spars of
+drift-wood, and were neither wind nor water tight. The tents were, as
+usual, filthy, but suitable to the taste of their inhabitants, who no
+doubt saw nothing in them that was revolting. The natives testified
+much pleasure at our visit, and placed before us several dishes,
+amongst which were two of their choicest,--the entrails of a fine
+seal, and a bowl of coagulated blood. But desirous as we were to
+oblige them, there was not one of our party that could be induced to
+partake of their hospitality. Seeing our reluctance, they tried us
+with another dish, consisting of the raw flesh of the narwhal, nicely
+cut into lumps, with an equal distribution of black and white fat, but
+they were not more successful here than at first."
+
+
+
+
+The Seal
+
+
+The seal's flesh supplies the natives with their most palatable and
+substantial food, which however has a fishy flavour, as the creatures
+feed chiefly on fish. Seals are sometimes taken on land, when
+surprised basking in the sun, with their young. As soon as they are
+alarmed by the sight of their enemies, they scuttle away, and make for
+the sea[4]. It is on the great deep that the Esquimaux, driven by
+hunger, chiefly seeks his precarious food. In his light canoe, which
+is made of seal-skins stretched over a slight framework of wood, he
+hunts, in all weathers, for his prey, especially for the much-prized
+Narwhal.
+
+There, tumbling in their seal-skin boat,
+Fearless, the hungry fishers float,
+And from the teeming seas supply
+The food their niggard plains deny.
+
+[Footnote 4: See ZOOLOGICAL SKETCHES, _Common Seal_. Published by the
+Society for Promoting Christian Knowledge.]
+
+
+
+
+The Narwhal
+
+
+[Illustration: ESQUIMAUX STRIKING A NARWHAL]
+
+The same intrepid boldness is shown in their chase of the reindeer,
+the bear, and the fox. Over the boundless deserts of snow they are
+borne rapidly along by their faithful dogs, which are harnessed to a
+sledge, six or seven to the team, and which scamper away, often in
+seeming confusion, but with a precision of aim and object which is
+perfectly surprising. No country presents a finer specimen of that
+honest, affectionate, much-enduring creature, the dog. Kindness to
+animals is always praiseworthy, and to the honour of the Esquimaux
+women it must be said, that they are remarked for their humane
+treatment of these dogs. They take care of them when they are ill, and
+use them better than the men do. Still under blows and hard usage the
+dogs are faithful, and willing to labour.
+
+
+
+
+Sir W. Edward Parry's Account
+
+
+The Esquimaux sometimes use slabs of ice for the walls of their huts,
+cementing them together with snow and water. Kennels for their dogs
+are also made of the same material. The late Admiral Sir W. Edward
+Parry, in the course of a voyage commenced in May, 1821, the chief
+object of which was the discovery of the North-West passage, availed
+himself of a winter's imprisonment in the ice, to observe and record
+the ways and manners of the Esquimaux, whose guest he was. His account
+is on the whole satisfactory. "I can safely affirm," said he, "that,
+whilst thus lodged beneath their roof, I know no people whom I would
+more confidently trust, as respects either my person or my property,
+than the Esquimaux."
+
+He also described their domestic character. The affection of the
+parents towards their children showed itself in a thousand ways, and
+the children on their part have so much gentleness and docility as to
+render any kind of chastisement unnecessary. Even from their earliest
+infancy, they are said to possess that quietness of disposition,
+gentleness of demeanour, and uncommon evenness of temper, for which in
+more mature age they are for the most part distinguished. Disobedience
+is scarcely ever known; a word or even a look from a parent is enough.
+
+These traits, added to industry and endurance of various kinds of
+difficulty, form the fair side of the picture, such as that amiable
+and distinguished officer was fond of presenting. The exhibition of
+these features of character was probably called forth, in a great
+degree, by his own kindness and good management, whilst living among
+them.
+
+
+
+
+Need of Christian Instruction
+
+
+But doubtless there are other and less favourable points of view in
+which these people must be sometimes considered. At all events, it is
+sad to learn, from the silence of some travellers, and the actual
+statements of others, that the Esquimaux do not appear to have any
+idea of the existence of a Supreme Being, or to hold any notion of
+religion. Separated from the whole civilized world, and frequently
+finding it a struggle to live, even with the help of their faithful
+dogs, they are objects of pity and concern, rather than of sanguine
+hope and expectation to the Christian mind. But were an opportunity to
+occur of carrying the Gospel to their snow-clad land, there is little
+doubt that the remark of Parry, applied to an individual of one of
+their tribes, might be used of all: "On dispositions thus naturally
+charitable, what might not Christian education, and Christian
+principles effect?"
+
+
+
+
+Kallihirua's Tribe
+
+
+Certainly, the instance now before the reader affords a good
+illustration of this view of the Esquimaux character. It is Captain
+Ommanney's opinion that Kallihirua's tribe may be regarded as a
+remnant of the pure race which, no doubt, in ages past migrated from
+Asia along the coasts of the Parry Group of Islands and Barrow's
+Straits. The features, and formation of skull, bespeak Tartar
+extraction. "Their isolated position," he adds, "being far north of
+the Danish settlements in Greenland, and far removed from the American
+continent, has kept them uncontaminated with any of the various mixed
+breeds of which the Esquimaux in those regions must be composed."
+
+
+
+
+Kallihirua in England
+
+
+Captain Ommanney, soon after his arrival in England, brought young
+Kallihirua to the Society for Promoting Christian Knowledge. At that
+time he could only speak a few words, such as "Ship," "Sea," "Very
+sick;" "England, things very nice," "Captain very good". From his
+language and gesture it was gathered, that he had suffered much from
+sea-sickness on the voyage; that he had been treated with the utmost
+care and kindness on board, and that he was highly pleased with
+English fare, and with the reception which he had met with in this
+country.
+
+His manners were so gentle, and even polite, without any seeming
+effort, as to excite astonishment in those who knew how short a time
+he had enjoyed the advantages of education. It was clear that great
+pains had been taken with him on board the "Assistance," where his
+great study had been to adapt himself to the habits and manners of
+those among whom his lot was so singularly cast. "In this," says
+Captain Ommanney, "he succeeded; for people were surprised at his good
+address, when he reached England."
+
+
+
+
+His Fondness for Prints and Drawings
+
+
+He was always much pleased with the company of young people, and
+appeared quite at home with them. Some books and prints were placed in
+the hands of the youth, and he expressed the greatest delight in
+seeing views of ships in the ice, and the figure of an Esquimaux
+watching for a seal. After gazing for a few moments at the latter, he
+uttered a cry of pleasure, and said, "This one of my people!" It
+seemed as if, for the time, he had been carried back to his own land,
+which, however homely, was once his home. Had any proof been wanting
+of the faithfulness of the representation, his hearty and joyous
+approval of it would have afforded sufficient evidence of its
+accuracy.
+
+The reader shall see the engraving of the lonely seal-hunter which so
+much pleased poor Kalli.
+
+
+
+
+Seal Hunter
+
+[Illustration: Seal Hunter]
+
+
+In this situation, we are told, a man will sit quietly for ten or
+twelve hours together, at a temperature of thirty or forty degrees
+below zero, watching for the opportunity of killing and taking the
+seal, which is supposed to be at work making its hole beneath in the
+ice. The Esquimaux, partly sheltered from the "winter's wind," and
+fast-falling snow, by a snow-wall, has got his spear and lines ready,
+and he has tied his knees together, to prevent his disturbing the seal
+by making the slightest noise.
+
+
+
+
+Sights in England
+
+
+Kalli, whilst in London, on a visit to the author, was taken to the
+British Museum. With some of the objects there he was much gratified.
+The antiquities, sculpture, and specimens of art and science, had not
+such charms in his sight as had the life-like forms of stuffed animals
+in that great national collection. With the seals, reindeer, and a
+gigantic walrus, with bright glass eyes, he was especially struck and
+amused, lingering for some time in the attractive apartment which
+contained them.
+
+He had now and then much to bear from rudeness and incivility on the
+part of some thoughtless persons, who derided his personal appearance,
+though they were not successful in putting him out of temper. The
+author recollects an instance of this in a street in London. He was
+walking with Kalli, when two young men, who ought to have known
+better, stared at the youth in passing, and laughed in his face: then
+presently turning round, they said, as they pointed at him, "There
+goes a Chinese!" He merely looked up, smiling, as if at their
+ignorance, and want of proper feeling.
+
+It has been observed of the people of his nation, that they evince
+little or no surprise or excitement at such things as occasion
+admiration in others. When Kalli first came up the river Thames with
+Captain Ommanney, and travelled from Woolwich by the railway, thence
+proceeding through the wonderful thoroughfare from London Bridge to
+the West End of the town, passing St. Paul's Cathedral, and Charing
+Cross, he merely said, _It was all very good_.
+
+"I took him with me," said the Captain, "to the Great Exhibition, the
+Crystal Palace, in Hyde Park. He beheld all the treasures around him
+with great coolness, and only expressed his wonder at the vast
+multitude of people."
+
+
+
+
+Great Exhibition of 1851
+
+
+This is natural enough. Many of our readers may recall the feelings of
+astonishment with which they viewed that large assemblage. On one of
+the shilling days, in October, 1851, ninety-two thousand human beings
+were collected together in the Crystal Palace at one time[5]. The
+force of contrast could perhaps go no further than in this instance.
+A young stranger who, in his own country, in a space of hundreds of
+miles around him, had only three families (probably twelve persons) to
+count, makes one of a multitude of more than ninety thousand of his
+fellow-creatures, in a building of glass, covering only eighteen acres
+of ground!
+
+[Footnote 5: This was the case on Tuesday, Oct. 7, 1851. The total
+number of visitors on that day alone was 109,915.]
+
+He was taken to see the Horse Guards' Stables. On seeing a trooper
+mount his charger, (both being fully accoutred,) Kalli was puzzled. He
+could not account for the perfect order and discipline of the animal,
+and the mutual fitness of the man and his horse, the one for the
+other.
+
+
+
+
+St. Augustine's College
+
+
+In November, 1851, Kallihirua was placed, by direction of the Lords of
+the Admiralty, at the suggestion of the Society for the Propagation of
+the Gospel, in the Missionary College of St. Augustine's, at
+Canterbury. This college, built on the site of the ancient monastery
+of St. Augustine, was established in 1848, for the reception of
+students intended for the work of the sacred Ministry in the colonies
+and dependencies of the British Empire, as well as among the heathen.
+The College, to which the Queen gave a charter of incorporation, owes
+its origin chiefly to the munificence of A. J. B. Beresford Hope,
+Esq., who purchased the ground, and gave the site. The College Chapel
+was consecrated on the morning of St. Peter's Day, June 29th, 1848,
+when seven prelates, with the Archbishop of Canterbury at their head,
+were present.
+
+
+
+
+College Studies
+
+
+Kallihirua remained a student of the College, attending to the
+instruction given him, and conducting himself well and properly in all
+respects. Under the kind auspices of the Rev. H. Bailey, the learned
+and judicious Warden of the College, who took the greatest interest in
+him, he availed himself, as far as his powers admitted, of the
+advantages of the institution. He appeared rightly to understand and
+value the blessings of education in a civilized community, and
+received with reverence the simple and saving truths of the Gospel. It
+was hoped, that, should he willingly and intelligently embrace the
+Christian faith, he might at no distant period convey the "glad
+tidings of good things" as a missionary or catechist to his own
+benighted friends and countrymen.
+
+In September, 1852, the Warden, in a letter, informed the author, that
+Kallihirua had been in good health all the summer. "We consider him,"
+said he, "a youth of intelligence, and quick observation. His progress
+in reading is necessarily slow, though he can manage words of four or
+five letters, he is fond of writing, and succeeds very well. He is
+very devout at prayers, and attentive to the religious instruction
+given him. I think he will one day be of essential use to a missionary
+in some northern region. He is grateful to you for your kind offer of
+books, and will write a letter of acknowledgment."
+
+
+
+
+His Reverence for Sacred Places
+
+
+It was but a short time after his settling at St. Augustine's College,
+that one of the students took him to see Canterbury Cathedral. The
+reverent regard with which he had been taught to look upon a church,
+as a place where prayer was made to God, manifested itself in his
+inquiry, when entering the nave, "Whether he might cough there?" This
+tendency to cough, arising from an ailment, the seeds of which had
+probably been sown long before, was often observable; and he was very
+susceptible of cold.
+
+
+
+
+Illness from Changes in the Weather
+
+
+In the spring of 1853 he suffered much from the variableness of the
+season. The mode in which he described his state to a friend is very
+simple and affecting. The original letter, which was entirely his own,
+both in composition and handwriting, is here copied verbatim. It
+commences with his signature:--
+
+"E. YORK, St. Augustine's College. April, 1853.
+
+"My dear Sir,
+
+ "I am very glad to tell, How do you do, Sir? I been
+ England, long time none very well. Long time none
+ very well. Very bad weather. I know very well, very
+ bad cough. I very sorry, very bad weather,
+ dreadful. Country very difference. Another day
+ cold. Another day wet, I miserable.
+
+ "Another summer come. Very glad. Great many trees.
+ Many wood. Summer beautiful, country Canterbury."
+
+Should any reader be disposed to look with the smile of a critic on
+this humble but genuine effort, let him bear in mind the difficulties
+which poor _English_ adults have to encounter in learning to read and
+write; and then let him judge of the obstacles in the way of one whose
+existence had been spent with his native tribe, on fields of ice, and
+in dark snow-huts.
+
+In all attacks of illness he was attended with assiduous kindness by
+Mr. Hallowes, of Canterbury, the skilful surgeon employed by the
+College, who showed much hospitality to Kalli. One of Mr. Hallowes'
+family circle on Christmas-day was always the good-humoured
+broad-faced Esquimaux. At their juvenile parties, the youth joined
+cheerfully in the sports of the children, and he sometimes sung them
+some of the wild and plaintive airs peculiar to his tribe.
+
+It is believed that Kalli never omitted his morning and evening
+prayers by his bed-side, and his utterance was full of devout
+earnestness. Mr. Bailey remembers once travelling with him to Deal,
+and while in the railway carriage, the youth quietly took out of his
+pocket a little book, which was afterwards found to be a collection of
+texts for each day in the year. For some time he was reading
+thoughtfully the text for the day. No notice was taken of this to him;
+and as for himself, never perhaps was any one more free from the least
+approach to ostentation.
+
+
+
+
+Greenland Esquimaux Vocabulary
+
+
+In the year 1853, Kalli rendered essential Service in the preparation
+of a Greenland Esquimaux Vocabulary, for the use of the Arctic
+Expedition of that year. The work was printed by direction of the
+Lords of the Admiralty, with a short Preface acknowledging the
+advantage of his assistance. Captain Washington, R.N., Hydrographer of
+the Admiralty, says in the Preface, "Every word has now been revised
+from the lips of a native. In the Midsummer vacation in 1852
+Kallihirua passed some days with me, and we went partly over the
+Vocabulary. I found him intelligent, speaking English very fairly,
+docile and imitative, his great pleasure appearing to be a pencil and
+paper, with which he drew animals and ships. At the Christmas
+holidays, we revised more of the Vocabulary, &c."
+
+A member of the Expedition afterwards visited St. Augustine's College
+and stated that the Vocabulary had been found to be of much service.
+
+
+
+
+Visit to Kalli at College
+
+
+The writer of this Memoir well recollects the circumstances of a visit
+which he paid with his family to St. Augustine's College, Canterbury,
+on a bright day, in August, 1853, when (it being the vacation) only
+three students remained in residence. These were 1. Kallihirua, 2. a
+young Hindoo by name Mark Pitamber Paul, and 3. Lambert McKenzie, a
+youth of colour, a native of Africa, sent to the College by the Bishop
+of Guiana. Kalli, who was the only one of these personally known to
+the author, did not at first appear. He had strolled out to witness a
+cricket-match in a field near Canterbury, but Blunsom, the College
+porter, said that he had promised to return by two o'clock, and that
+he was very punctual.
+
+It is here due both to Blunsom and his wife, to say that they were
+most kind friends to Kalli, watching over him with the most thoughtful
+attention, and the tenderest care throughout.
+
+As the Cathedral clock struck two, Kalli entered the College-gates.
+With hair black as the raven's wing, and eyes sparkling with
+good-humour, he made his appearance; and soon showed a desire to do
+the honours of the College. His dress was neat, like that of a young
+English gentleman, and he had a gaiety of look and manner, but far
+removed from foppery of apparel or demeanour. With true
+politeness--that of the heart--he accompanied the visitors over the
+Library, the Chapel, the Common Hall and the Dormitories of the
+College; each student having a small bed-room and study to himself.
+
+
+
+
+His Amusements and Occupations
+
+
+Kalli took great pleasure in exhibiting the carpenter's shop, a
+spacious crypt below the Library. Attention was there called to the
+wooden frame of a small house, in the construction of which, it
+appeared, he had borne a part. He said, when asked, that he should
+most probably find the knowledge of carpentering valuable some day,
+and that he should like to teach his countrymen the many good and
+useful things which he had learned in his College. He spoke little,
+and was evidently conscious of his imperfect pronunciation, but in
+answer to a question on the subject, he said he hoped to tell his
+people about religion, and the truths of the Gospel which he had been
+taught in England.
+
+His amusements were of a quiet and innocent kind. He made small models
+of his country sledges, one of which, a very creditable performance,
+is in the Museum in the College Library, and a rough rustic chair, now
+in the College garden, is of his manufacture. He was fond of drawing
+ships, and figures of the Seal, the Walrus, the Reindeer, the
+Esquimaux Dog, and other objects familiar to him in the Arctic
+regions.
+
+[Illustration: WALRUS AND SEAL.]
+
+His sketches of animals and ships were very correct, and he used
+sometimes to draw them for the amusement of children.
+
+When on board the "Assistance," he made a good sketch of the coast
+line of the region which his tribe frequented, from Cape York to
+Smith's Sound.
+
+The use which he made of the needle must not be forgotten. For a year
+and a half, whilst at Canterbury, he went regularly for five hours a
+day to a tailor to learn the trade, and was found very handy with his
+needle. He proved to be of much use in the ordinary work of the trade.
+
+
+
+
+Baptism of Kallihirua
+
+
+We now come to an important event in the history of Kallihirua; his
+Baptism, which took place on Advent Sunday, Nov. 27th, 1853, in St.
+Martin's Church, near Canterbury. "The visitors present on the
+occasion," said an eye-witness[6], "were, the Rev. John Philip Gell
+(late Warden of Christ's College, Tasmania), accompanied by Mrs. Gell,
+daughter of the late Sir John Franklin; Captain Erasmus Ommanney, R.N.
+(who brought Kallihirua to England), and Mrs. Ommanney, Captain
+Washington, R.N., of the Admiralty, and the Rev. W. T. Bullock. The
+Rev. T. B. Murray, Secretary of the Society for Promoting Christian
+Knowledge, who had been invited, was, in consequence of engagements in
+London, unfortunately unable to be present".
+
+[Footnote 6: St. Augustine's Occasional Paper.]
+
+[Illustration: St. Martin's Church]
+
+"Towards three o'clock in the afternoon, small parties began to issue
+from the College gateway in the direction of St. Martin's,--that
+picturesque little church, looking from its calm hill-side over the
+broad Stour valley, and over the cathedral and the steeples of the
+town half emerging from the smoke. In the interior of this oldest of
+the English churches there is an ancient font, which stands upon the
+spot (if it be not the very font itself), where King Ethelbert, the
+firstfruits of the Anglo-Saxon race, was baptized more than twelve
+hundred and fifty years ago by Augustine.
+
+"In the enclosure round this font sat Kallihirua, and his 'chosen
+witnesses' Captain Ommanney, and the Subwarden, Mrs. Bailey, and Mrs.
+Gell. The remainder of the church was quite filled with an attentive
+and apparently deeply-interested congregation, many of them of the
+poorer class to whom Kalli is well known either by face (as indeed he
+could not well fail to be), or as the comrade of their children in the
+spelling-class at school.
+
+"After the Second Lesson, the Warden proceeded to the font, and the
+Baptismal Service commenced. Kallihirua, as an adult, made the
+responses for himself, and in a clear firm tone, which seemed to
+intimate that he had made his choice for once and for ever, that he
+had cast in his lot with us, and taken our people for his people, and
+our God for his God, and felt with an intelligent appreciation the
+privilege of that new brotherhood into which he was admitted.
+
+"May his admission within the pale of Christ's holy Church be, (as was
+the prayer of many, beyond the walls of St. Martin's, on that day,)
+both to himself and to many of his race, an event pregnant of eternal
+issues! 'May the fulness of God's blessing,' to use the words of one
+of our most valued friends, 'rest upon it, and make it the first
+streak of a clear and steady light, shining from St. Augustine's into
+the far North.' The Christian names added to his original Esquimaux
+name, were 'Erasmus,' after Captain Ommanney, and 'Augustine,' in
+remembrance of the College.
+
+"The service being concluded, an excellent sermon was preached by the
+Rev. J. P. Gell, on the text, Isaiah lxv. 1: 'I am sought of them that
+asked not for me; I am found of them that sought me not: I said,
+Behold me, behold me, unto a nation that was not called by my name.'
+Afterwards the same kind friend attended our Sunday evening meeting in
+the Warden's house, and gave us some interesting details of the
+missionary work (in which he had himself borne a part) in Van Diemen's
+Land. The drift of his remarks was to give encouragement to the
+principle of steady faithful persevering energy, undamped by early
+difficulties, and not impatient of the day of small things; and to
+show by convincing examples (especially that of Mr. Davis, a devoted
+missionary in that country) how such conduct is sure in the end to
+meet with a success of the soundest and most permanent kind, because
+founded on the spontaneous sympathy of the people, and on the
+blessings of the poor, 'not loud but deep.'
+
+"Kallihirua had received a very handsome present in the shape of a
+beautifully bound Bible and Prayer Book, as a baptismal gift from the
+Society for Promoting Christian Knowledge."
+
+It may be interesting to add, that the water used in the baptism was
+from the river Jordan, and that it had been brought from thence by
+Captain Ommanney himself.
+
+In the _Gospel Missionary_ for February, 1854, was a pleasing
+description of the Baptism of Kallihirua: and this was the sound and
+practical conclusion:--
+
+ "Before we conclude, we may, perhaps, express the hope that
+ our young friends will sometimes think kindly of their new
+ Christian brother, ERASMUS AUGUSTINE KALLIHIRUA, and that
+ they will pray that God will bless him, and make him to
+ advance more and more in the knowledge and the love of His
+ dear Son JESUS CHRIST. When they thus think of him who is now
+ made their own brother by baptism, and is thus brought into
+ the family of CHRIST'S people, let them learn to value the
+ good things which GOD has given _them_ in such rich
+ abundance. Let them be thankful that they were born in a
+ Christian country, in which they have been taught from
+ children to know the Holy Scriptures, which are able to make
+ them wise unto salvation through faith which is in CHRIST
+ JESUS."
+
+
+
+
+Stanzas by the Warden
+
+
+The following stanzas, written by the Warden on the occasion of the
+baptism, will be read with pleasure, especially by those who are aware
+how faithfully the amiable writer of them fulfilled his part in
+preparing Kallihirua, not only for the right performance of such
+duties as seemed to await him in life, but (what was far more
+important) for an early death.
+
+
+THE BAPTISM OF KALLIHIRUA
+
+"I WILL TAKE YOU ONE OF A CITY, AND TWO OF A FAMILY, AND I WILL BRING
+YOU TO ZION."--Jer. iii. 14.
+
+ Far through the icy bounds
+ Of Greenland's barren shore,
+ At duty's call, on mercy sent,
+ The brave are gone before.
+
+ Beyond the haunts of men
+ They urge their tedious way,
+ When lo! a wandering tribe appears
+ By yonder northern bay.
+
+ But who so wild, so lost
+ In ignorance and sin!
+ No God they know, no Saviour own,
+ Is there a soul to win?
+
+ Yes, in that heathen race
+ One heart at least is found
+ That yearns for better things, by grace
+ In unseen fetters bound.
+
+ Warm is the Christian's heart,
+ Outstretch'd the Christian's hand,
+ "Assistance" lends her friendly aid
+ To reach a Christian land.
+
+ In this our calm retreat
+ He finds a peaceful home,
+ Is taught such learning as is meet,
+ In store for years to come.
+
+ He learns to know and love
+ His Saviour and his God,
+ And now he is a brother dear,
+ By faith in Jesu's blood.
+
+ O gracious Spirit! hear
+ Our prayer with one accord;
+ And train this new-born Christian heart
+ In thy most holy Word.
+
+ Have pity on his race!
+ And bring them still to see
+ Their wretched state, and teach them all
+ The Father, Son, and Thee!
+
+ To God the Father, Son,
+ And Spirit, glory be,
+ Who call'd, and saved, and sanctifies,
+ The co-eternal Three!
+
+Some of these verses were sung in the College Chapel on the evening of
+Advent Sunday, 1853.
+
+
+
+
+Kalli at St. John's, Newfoundland
+
+
+The time having now arrived at which, according to the opinion of the
+Bishop of Newfoundland, and the Warden of St. Augustine's, the
+qualifications of Kallihirua might be turned to some account, as an
+aid to missionaries in their efforts among the Esquimaux of Labrador,
+he left England, in the autumn of the year 1855, for further training
+at St. John's, Newfoundland. This step was taken at the expense of the
+Admiralty, who agreed to allow him 25 pounds a year for three years.
+
+The following notice of his character appeared in the 'Occasional
+Paper,' published in St. Augustine's College at the time of his
+removal to Newfoundland. At every step of his short but remarkable
+course, such willing testimony always awaited him.
+
+"Kallihirua, whose name is known as widely as that of his College, has
+arrived at another crisis in his eventful history. Having resided more
+than three years in College, he has been transferred to the
+experienced care of the Bishop of Newfoundland, with the view to his
+probable usefulness among the Esquimaux of Labrador. If integrity of
+moral principle, gentleness of spirit, docility of manners,
+willingness to be useful, and true Christian politeness, are essential
+requisites in a Missionary, then is Kallihirua certain to fill his
+place well, if only the right place is found for him."
+
+Kalli arrived in St John's, Newfoundland, on the 2nd October, 1855,
+and, on the following day, wrote a letter to Captain Ommanney, telling
+him that he had suffered on the voyage from the motion of the vessel,
+which had caused severe headaches. He added, "St John's puts me in
+mind of my own country. I have already found a great number of kind
+friends, and feel so happy."
+
+He was immediately admitted into the College of the Theological
+Institution for further training, and it was the Bishop's intention to
+have taken him in the summer of 1856 in the Church-ship to the coast
+of Labrador, with the view particularly of comparing his language with
+that of the Esquimaux on the American continent, who are included
+under the government, and consequently in the diocese, of
+Newfoundland.
+
+That he was not unfitted for this task, appears from a passage in the
+preface to the Greenland-Esquimaux Vocabulary. Captain Washington
+observes: "On comparing the Labrador with the Greenland dialect of the
+Esquimaux, it was found that nearly one-half the words given by Mr.
+Platon were similar to the former. On going over the vocabulary with
+Kallihirua, generally speaking he recognized the Greenland word. When
+he did not do so, the Labrador was mentioned, which, in most cases, he
+caught at directly. These words have been added. There would thus
+appear to be even a greater degree of similarity between the Labrador
+and Greenland dialects than might have been expected, and it is
+evident that the Greenland dialect, as Mr. Platon states, is spoken by
+all the Esquimaux to the head of Baffin's Bay."
+
+Kalli had some conversation with a Moravian Missionary from Labrador.
+The language was in most respects similar, though there was evidently
+a difficulty in understanding each other.
+
+
+
+
+Death of Archdeacon Bridge
+
+
+It may be mentioned, as a circumstance of melancholy interest, that,
+besides Kallihirua, the late Venerable T. F. H. Bridge, Archdeacon of
+Newfoundland, was to have accompanied and assisted the Bishop in this
+voyage, which it was proposed should have extended to the Moravian
+settlement. Moravian Missions have been established in Greenland for
+more than a century. But the expedition contemplated by the Bishop
+was more particularly designed to open Sandwich and Esquimaux Bays to
+the much-needed Missionary.
+
+These projects it was determined, in the good providence of God, were
+not to be realized. Archdeacon Bridge was prematurely carried off, in
+the midst of his zealous and successful labours, at the end of
+February, 1856. "He worked himself to death!" said the Bishop. "His
+death was felt in the colony as a public loss."
+
+
+
+
+Intelligence from Newfoundland
+
+
+The author of this memoir had written to Kallihirua, whilst he was at
+St. Augustine's, and had received from him a letter shortly, and
+plainly expressed, which the Warden stated to have been composed and
+written by the youth himself, and which proved how anxious he was to
+do well that which was given him to do. The author afterwards often
+thought of the amiable Kalli, and was in hopes of soon hearing from
+him in his new abode in Newfoundland. But man proposeth, and God
+disposeth. A St. John's paper, _The Newfoundland Express_, taken up
+casually in July, 1856, conveyed the intelligence that Kallihirua had
+passed away from this busy anxious world to another, and, we humbly
+and reasonably hope, a better and happier.
+
+A melancholy interest generally attaches to the history of individuals
+dying in a foreign and strange land, far from friends and home. The
+separation from all they have known and loved is, in their case, so
+entire, the change of their circumstances, habits, and associations,
+so great, that such a dispensation specially appeals to the sympathy
+of all Christian hearts.
+
+
+
+
+Allusion to Prince Le Boo
+
+
+Feelings of this kind are excited by the narrative of the early death
+of Prince Le Boo, a youthful native of the Pelew Islands, who was
+brought over to this country in July, 1784, and who, in the
+spring-time of life, after little more than five months' stay in
+England, fell a victim, to the small pox. In the memoir of that young
+prince, who died at Rotherhithe, and was buried in the church-yard
+there, in December, 1784, there are some points of resemblance to the
+case under our notice. The natural and unforced politeness of the
+youth, his aptness at conforming, in all proper things, to the habits
+and customs of those to whose hospitality he was intrusted; his warm
+and single-hearted affection for such persons, in whatever station,
+as showed him kind offices, his desire for mental improvement; his
+resignation and submission in his last illness to the will of God,
+these are features which remind us of the subject of our present
+memoir. Many are the tears which have fallen over the story of the
+young and amiable Prince Le Boo.
+
+
+
+
+Accounts from St. John's
+
+
+But to resume the thread of the narrative respecting Kalli. During the
+winter of 1855 and 1856 he had suffered frequently from cough, and
+shown other signs of constitutional weakness. His cheerfulness,
+however, had seldom failed him; his readiness to please, and be
+pleased, to oblige, and be obliged, never. In letters which he sent to
+friends in England, he always spoke with gratitude of the kindness
+shown him, and of being very happy.
+
+
+
+
+Letter from Kalli
+
+
+The following letter to Mr. Blunsom, who, as it will have been seen,
+had treated him with constant kindness, and done him much good
+service, will be read with interest.
+
+"St John's College, Newfoundland,
+January 7, 1856.
+
+ "I received your kind letter by the December
+ mail, and am very sorry to hear of your illness. The
+ weather here is very cold, I feel it more than at
+ Cape York. I have begun to skate, and find it a
+ pleasant amusement. There is a lake a little
+ distance from the College, called, 'Quidi Vidi,' on
+ which we practise. The Bishop is very kind and good
+ to me. College here is not so large and fine a
+ place as St. Augustine's: nor are there so many
+ students. I hope that all my kind friends at
+ Canterbury are quite well. Please remember me
+ kindly to Mr. and Mrs. Gipps, and all at St.
+ Augustine's. With kind love to yourself,
+
+ "I remain, yours affectionately,
+
+ "KALLI."
+
+
+
+
+Kalli's Illness and Death
+
+
+With respect to the fatal attack under which he soon sunk, it has to
+be mentioned, that he had gone out to bathe with one of his
+fellow-students at St. John's, on Saturday, the 7th June. From
+continuing too long in the water, which was very cold, he caught a
+chill, and showed many symptoms of inflammation for some days. On
+Wednesday, good medical assistance was called in, but his constitution
+had received too violent a shock. The Surgeon had fears from the first
+that his patient would not recover. It has been observed by medical
+men, that Esquimaux have but little stamina, and generally fail under
+the first attack of serious illness. Kalli was kindly watched and
+assisted by the Rev. J. G. Mountain, and Mrs. Mountain, and his
+fellow-students. He got rapidly worse. On the Thursday he seemed
+utterly powerless, and could not lift up his arms, nor put them out of
+his bed. He was very restless during the greater part of Friday night.
+
+"Soon after ten o'clock on Saturday morning, June 14th," said the
+Bishop of Newfoundland, "his gentle soul departed. I saw him
+frequently during his illness (three times the last day), and he
+always assented most readily, when I reminded him of God's gracious
+goodness in visiting him; and that it would be better for him to
+depart, and be with Christ. It was remarkable that his English was
+more clear and distinct in his illness than I had ever known it; and
+though he said but very little, he seemed to understand better than
+ever before. The last seizure was so sudden and violent, that he did
+not articulate at all. He expired, whilst I was commending his soul to
+his faithful Creator and most merciful Saviour."
+
+He is stated to have died of "melanosis of the lungs," a disease in
+which the whole substance of the lungs turns completely black. It is
+very slow in its first advances, but fearfully rapid in its latter
+stages. The Bishop had the chest examined after death, and sent a copy
+of the Surgeon's report to the Warden of St. Augustine's.
+
+In a full communication, made to the Warden, the Bishop said, "The
+almost suddenness of our good gentle Kalli's removal makes it
+difficult to realize the fact that 'he is gone.' I still look for his
+familiar strange face among the students, wondering at his unwonted
+absence. He seemed quite identified with our little company. We all
+miss him greatly, but he has now entered on that perfect rest which he
+seemed made for, and is delivered from a troublesome, naughty world
+for which he was certainly not made."
+
+The Bishop also spoke of Kalli's _submission to those set over him;
+his kindness to all around him, and his attention to all his religious
+duties_.
+
+Many young persons, born and bred in our own country, and brought up
+from the cradle in the very midst of Christian instruction, may glean
+a valuable lesson from the character of this lamented Esquimaux
+Christian. They may ask themselves, with some feeling of self-reproof,
+whether they should have merited such praise from one so revered, and
+so well qualified to judge. "Perhaps," added Bishop Feild, "I was a
+little proud at being able to exhibit a far-off Esquimaux brought
+near, and among my own scholars."
+
+During Kalli's last illness, which, though short, was not without
+considerable suffering, the same spirit of resignation and
+thankfulness, which he had always shown, was evinced. "Mr. D---- very
+kind," "K---- very kind," "Mrs.---- very kind," "Sorry to give so much
+trouble," were expressions continually on his lips, as he was visited
+and assisted by his fellow-students, and other friends in succession.
+His gentle spirit departed in the presence of the Rev. Thomas Wood,
+the Rev. Principal of the College, and all his fellow-students.
+
+The Rev. J. F. Phelps, Vice-Principal of St. John's College,
+Newfoundland, who had been a fellow-student of Kalli's, at St.
+Augustine's, wrote thus, June 25, 1856, respecting him.
+
+"I have every reason to believe and hope that he has been translated
+to a better state, and that he now rests in his Saviour: for though
+he had not much knowledge, yet few indeed act up to their knowledge so
+well and consistently as he did to his. It must be a comfort to you,
+Sir, to be assured that in his last moments he was cared for, and
+attended by all members of the College here, the students constantly
+being with him, as well as Mr. and Mrs. Mountain and myself. He showed
+himself very grateful for all that was being done for him, and
+expressed great sorrow at giving so much trouble. He always spoke of
+his friends in England with great affection, and was delighted
+whenever he received letters from them, which he was always eager to
+answer. Altogether, his was a very amiable character, and we all felt
+his loss very much."
+
+In another letter from Mr. Phelps is the following passage:--
+
+"During his last illness, in his conversation with me, it was evident
+that he quite understood the principle on which we Christians ought to
+bear our sufferings, patiently, and even thankfully, because of the
+still greater sufferings which we deserve, and which our Divine
+Saviour bore for us. I was, I confess, surprised at the readiness
+with which he realized the truth and the force of this reasoning."
+
+
+
+
+Legacy to a Friend
+
+
+The author had often remarked the very grateful manner in which the
+youth acknowledged any kindness shown towards him. He spoke with the
+utmost affection of his dear friends, Captain Ommanney, Captain
+Austin, R.N., the Rev. the Warden of St. Augustine's College, and Mrs.
+Bailey. Mrs. Bailey, he said, taught him constantly his readings in
+the New Testament, heard him his hymns, and corrected his
+writing-exercises. The Rev. A. P. Moor, Sub-Warden of the College, was
+also very kind to him, and gained his regard.
+
+Of the moderate means placed at his disposal he was always properly
+careful, expending very little upon himself. He had a few pounds laid
+up in the Savings' Bank at Canterbury. This amount, together with his
+humble store of goods and chattels, consisting chiefly of the prints
+which had adorned his room, he left, by a kind of will, to his
+untiring and constant friend, Captain Ommanney, in token of gratitude
+and regard.
+
+
+
+
+Kalli's Funeral
+
+
+The remains of Kallihirua were borne to the grave by his
+fellow-students, and followed by the Vice-Principal of the College,
+and by the Bishop of Newfoundland, as chief mourner. The Burial
+Service in the church (St. Thomas's) was conducted by the Rev. Mr.
+Wood, and in the cemetery by the Rev. Mr. Mountain, the Principal of
+the College. The quiet solemnity of the service was in keeping with
+the life and death of the gentle Kalli.
+
+Mrs. Mountain, of St. John's, Newfoundland, in whose house he lived,
+and who had kindly assisted in instructing him, wrote as follows:--
+
+"It is in sincere sorrow and mourning that I write to inform you that
+we yesterday followed to the grave our poor Erasmus Kallihirua. He
+died after only a few days' illness, brought on by incautiously going
+out to bathe with one of our other students. On the following day,
+when he came to me to read, as usual, he complained of great pain in
+the chest and side, and so rapid was the inflammation, that the usual
+remedies were unavailing.
+
+"Poor fellow, he was as patient and gentle during his illness, as he
+always was when he was well and strong, and expressed perfect
+resignation to God's will, and much thankfulness to those who
+ministered to him. We all loved him for his unvarying kindness and
+gentleness, his submission to those set over him, and his willingness
+to serve all. I miss him so very much, not only in his daily lessons,
+but in his constant knock at our door, to know whether I had any thing
+for him to do in the garden, or a message in the town when he was
+going out for a walk.
+
+"He looked very nice, lying in his silver-white coffin, covered with
+flowers, and a bunch of lilies and wild pear-blossoms on his bosom. We
+trust that he was one of the blessed meek who shall inherit the earth.
+We were all with him when he breathed his last, the Bishop, and the
+Principal of St. John's College, commending his soul to his faithful
+Creator."
+
+
+
+
+Intended Memorial
+
+
+It is proposed to inscribe a record of Kalli, and of other deceased
+students of St. Augustine's College, on a tablet in the crypt under
+the College Chapel. A memorial stone will be erected over Kalli's
+grave in St. John's, Newfoundland.
+
+With reference to the recent decease of some hopeful students of St.
+Augustine's, who, after giving promise of much usefulness in the cause
+of missions, had been removed from this earthly scene, Mr. Phelps
+observed in a letter lately printed at the St. Augustine's College
+Press:--
+
+"The whole College is again reminded, that 'all flesh is grass,' and
+that our life 'is even a vapour that appeareth for a little time, and
+then vanisheth away.' Poor Kalli is no longer with us. He has been
+made fit for the Master's use, and has been taken back by Him who lent
+him to us."
+
+
+
+
+Practical Reflections
+
+
+The writer in the "Newfoundland Express" made the following practical
+reflections on Kalli's early death, which suggest serious though
+cheering thoughts:--
+
+"It may seem to some persons but folly, and to others but mere
+boasting, to point to this young man, as any fruit of, or recompense
+for, the costly and calamitous Arctic expeditions. But others may not
+think it all in vain, if thereby one soul has been saved, and an
+example left to a few young men, of thankfulness and kindness to men,
+duty and devotion towards God. Such was Erasmus Augustine Kallihirua,
+once a poor benighted Esquimaux, but brought out of darkness into the
+marvellous light of the Gospel, to be a pattern to some, who, with
+much greater advantages, are far inferior in the best graces of the
+Christian."
+
+
+
+
+Conclusion
+
+
+All that has been written will tend to show that Kallihirua was held
+in much esteem and affection by those who knew him, and that some
+tribute, (such as even this little memoir,) is due to the memory of
+one who was well called "Erasmus," or "beloved."
+
+This, however, is not the chief end which the author had in view in
+presenting an account of Kalli's short career among his adopted
+countrymen. He would fain convey, amidst other wholesome lessons, that
+of the uncertainty of life, and the necessity of working while it is
+day. When we reflect on the departure of one, whose face and figure
+still dwell in the minds of many of us, it would be wise to remember,
+that we ourselves are making for the same point of our journey, the
+concluding scene of this short existence, the end of our probation.
+How trifling and insignificant do all other events appear, compared
+with the close of the race, and the arrival at the looked-for goal!
+May God grant us grace to act constantly on this conviction, as to all
+our plans and prospects!

+1.F.
+
+1.F.1. Project Gutenberg volunteers and employees expend considerable
+effort to identify, do copyright research on, transcribe and proofread
+public domain works in creating the Project Gutenberg-tm
+collection. Despite these efforts, Project Gutenberg-tm electronic
+works, and the medium on which they may be stored, may contain
+"Defects," such as, but not limited to, incomplete, inaccurate or
+corrupt data, transcription errors, a copyright or other intellectual
+property infringement, a defective or damaged disk or other medium, a
+computer virus, or computer codes that damage or cannot be read by
+your equipment.
+
+1.F.2. LIMITED WARRANTY, DISCLAIMER OF DAMAGES - Except for the "Right
+of Replacement or Refund" described in paragraph 1.F.3, the Project
+Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation, the owner of the Project

+Project Gutenberg-tm work, and (c) any Defect you cause.
+
+
+Section 2. Information about the Mission of Project Gutenberg-tm
+
+Project Gutenberg-tm is synonymous with the free distribution of
+electronic works in formats readable by the widest variety of computers
+including obsolete, old, middle-aged and new computers. It exists
+because of the efforts of hundreds of volunteers and donations from
+people in all walks of life.
+
+Volunteers and financial support to provide volunteers with the
+assistance they need, is critical to reaching Project Gutenberg-tm's
+goals and ensuring that the Project Gutenberg-tm collection will
+remain freely available for generations to come. In 2001, the Project
+Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a secure
+and permanent future for Project Gutenberg-tm and future generations.
+To learn more about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation
+and how your efforts and donations can help, see Sections 3 and 4
+and the Foundation web page at https://www.gutenberg.org/fundraising/pglaf.
+
+
+Section 3. Information about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive
+Foundation
+
+The Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation is a non profit
+501(c)(3) educational corporation organized under the laws of the
+state of Mississippi and granted tax exempt status by the Internal
+Revenue Service. The Foundation's EIN or federal tax identification
+number is 64-6221541. Contributions to the Project Gutenberg
+Literary Archive Foundation are tax deductible to the full extent
+permitted by U.S. federal laws and your state's laws.
+

+ gbnewby@pglaf.org
+
+Section 4. Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg
+Literary Archive Foundation
+
+Project Gutenberg-tm depends upon and cannot survive without wide
+spread public support and donations to carry out its mission of
+increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be
+freely distributed in machine readable form accessible by the widest
+array of equipment including outdated equipment. Many small donations
+($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt
+status with the IRS.
+
+The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating
+charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United
+States. Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a
+considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up
+with these requirements. We do not solicit donations in locations
+where we have not received written confirmation of compliance. To
+SEND DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any
+particular state visit https://www.gutenberg.org/fundraising/donate
+
+While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we
+have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition
+against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who
+approach us with offers to donate.
+
+International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make
+any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from
+outside the United States. U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff.
+
+Please check the Project Gutenberg Web pages for current donation
+methods and addresses. Donations are accepted in a number of other
+ways including checks, online payments and credit card donations.
+To donate, please visit:
+https://www.gutenberg.org/fundraising/donate
+
+
+Section 5. General Information About Project Gutenberg-tm electronic
+works.
+
+Professor Michael S. Hart was the originator of the Project Gutenberg-tm
+concept of a library of electronic works that could be freely shared
+with anyone. For thirty years, he produced and distributed Project
+Gutenberg-tm eBooks with only a loose network of volunteer support.
+
+Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks are often created from several printed
+editions, all of which are confirmed as Public Domain in the U.S.
+unless a copyright notice is included. Thus, we do not necessarily
+keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper edition.
+
+Most people start at our Web site which has the main PG search facility:
+
+ https://www.gutenberg.org
+
+This Web site includes information about Project Gutenberg-tm,
+including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary
+Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how to
+subscribe to our email newsletter to hear about new eBooks.

+<p><span class="smcap">Kallihirua</span>, notwithstanding the disadvantages

+<h4>Her Majesty's Ship "Assistance"</h4>
+<span class="right"><a class="contents" href="#Page_5">[Go to Table of Contents]</a></span>
+<br /><p>Erasmus Augustine York, whose native name was Kallihirua, was brought
+to England on board Her Majesty's ship "Assistance," Captain Erasmus
+Ommanney, in 1851. Captain Ommanney was second in command of the
+expedition under the orders of Captain Horatio Austin, C.B., which was
+dispatched in May, 1850, in search of the missing vessels of Sir John
+Franklin, the "Erebus" and "Terror". Franklin had quitted England on
+his perilous and fatal enterprise in May, 1845.</p>
+
+<p>Much interest was attached to the young Esquimaux, who was considered
+to be about sixteen years of age in August, 1850. He was one of a
+tribe inhabiting the country in the vicinity of Wolstenholme Sound, at
+the head of Baffin's Bay, in 76&deg; 3' north latitude, the nearest
+residents to the North Pole of any human beings known to exist on the
+globe. He was the only person ever brought to this country from so
+high a northern latitude. His tribe was met with by the late Sir John
+Ross, during his voyage in 1818, and was by him called the Arctic
+Highlanders.</p>

+<h4>Cape York</h4>
+<span class="right"><a class="contents" href="#Page_5">[Go to Table of Contents]</a></span>
+<br /><p>It appears that, when the expedition under Captain Austin's command
+was passing Cape York, in August, 1850, after its release from the ice
+in Melville Bay, natives were seen from the "Assistance". Captain
+Ommanney went with the "Intrepid" (one of the vessels comprising the
+expedition) to communicate with them, when it was ascertained that
+H.M.S., "North Star," had passed the winter in the neighbourhood. The
+fate of this vessel was then a matter of anxiety, as by her
+instructions she had been cautioned to avoid passing the winter in
+those regions. The tribe thus discovered consisted of only three
+families, residing in their summer huts at Cape York. As no steamer
+had ever before found its way to these seas, it was interesting to
+watch the impression upon the singular beings now visited, when they
+descended into the engine-room. The large furnaces and machinery
+astonished them. The latter, on being put in motion, made them take to
+their heels with fright, and they ran out of the engine-room on deck
+as fast as they could.</p>

+<h4>Kallihirua on board the "Assistance"</h4>
+<span class="right"><a class="contents" href="#Page_5">[Go to Table of Contents]</a></span>
+<br /><p>It was after this first interview that the report was raised of the
+massacre of two ships' crews in 1846. Captain Ommanney, accompanied by
+Captain Penny, with his interpreter, immediately returned to Cape
+York, and had a long interview with the natives. They most
+emphatically denied the whole statement, adding, that no ship
+had ever been on their coasts except the "North Star," and passing
+whalers. Then it was, that Kallihirua consented to show Captain
+Ommanney where the "North Star" had wintered, and to join the ship,
+for the purpose of being useful as an interpreter, in the event of
+their meeting with any natives during the search for the missing
+expedition under Sir John Franklin. Parting (for awhile, as he
+supposed) with his immediate relatives, and with the only people whom
+he knew on earth, he threw himself into the hands of strangers in
+perfect confidence. Having arrived on board the "Assistance," he put
+off his rough native costume, submitted to the process of a good
+washing, and, being soon clad in ordinary European clothing, which was
+cheerfully contributed by the officers, the young Esquimaux with much
+intelligence performed the duty of pilot to the place where the "North
+Star" had wintered.</p>

+<h4>The Esquimaux Graves</h4>
+<span class="right"><a class="contents" href="#Page_5">[Go to Table of Contents]</a></span>
+<br /><p>On entering Wolstenholme Sound<a name="FNanchor_3" id="FNanchor_3"> </a>
+<a href="#Footnote_3" class="fnanchor">[3]</a>, Kallihirua, or, as he was
+familiarly called, <span class="smcap">Kalli</span>, directed Captain
+Ommanney and the officers to the late winter-station of his tribe, the
+spot having been abandoned in consequence of some epidemic, probably
+influenza, which had carried off several persons. On entering the
+huts, a most distressing sight presented itself. A heap of dead
+bodies, about seven, in a state of decomposition, lay, one over the
+other, clad in their skin-clothing, as if suddenly cut off by the hand
+of death. The survivors, from fear of infection, had left the remains
+of their relatives unburied. It was an affecting scene in such a
+remote and desolate region, separated from all communication with the
+human race. Near the huts was the burial-ground, with several
+well-formed graves of heaps of stones. On one lay a spear, which one
+of the officers of the "Assistance" took up, to bring away. Some of
+the crew were examining the graves to see whether they contained any
+of our missing countrymen. Seeing this, Kalli ran up to the officer,
+and, with tears and entreaties, as well as he could make himself
+understood, begged him and the men to desist from the work of
+desecration.</p>
+
+<span class="left"><a name="Page_12" id="Page_12">[Pg&nbsp;12]</a></span>
+<h4>Kallihirua's Family</h4>
+<span class="right"><a class="contents" href="#Page_5">[Go to Table of Contents]</a></span>
+<br /><p>Poor Kalli's lamentations were quite heartrending. His feelings were,
+of course, respected, the graves were at once built up again, and the
+spear replaced. Captain Ommanney learnt afterwards from Kalli, that it
+was his father's grave, over which the spear had been placed by
+friends of the deceased. They have a tradition that in a future state
+the means of hunting are still required, and, because in this world
+the search of food is the chief object of life, the hunting-lance is
+deposited on the grave.</p>
+
+<p>The young stranger subsequently lived on board the "Assistance". He
+was placed under the care of the serjeant of Marines, who instructed
+Kalli in the rudiments of reading and writing, and to whom he became
+much attached. By his amiable disposition he made himself welcome and
+agreeable to all the expedition, and, as, in consequence of the state
+of the ice, no opportunity was offered of landing him on his native
+shores, on the return of the vessel past York Inlet, he was brought to
+England. The leaders of the expedition conferred the surname of York
+upon him, from the locality in which he was found. To this the name of
+Erasmus was prefixed, after that of the gallant Captain Ommanney.</p>

+<h4>Lines on "Kallihirua in the Ship"</h4>
+<span class="right"><a class="contents" href="#Page_5">[Go to Table of Contents]</a></span>
+<br /><p>Kalli was a twin. His father, whose grave has been mentioned, had been
+dead for some years, but he had a mother living, of whom he often
+spoke with duty and affection. His father's name was Kirshung-oak. His
+mother's Sa-toor-ney. He had two sisters living with their mother. A
+touching circumstance, connected with his first introduction to our
+countrymen, has been adverted to, which gave rise to the following
+lines by the writer of this memoir. They were published in the "Gospel
+Missionary," in the year of the arrival of Kallihirua, and are
+supposed to be spoken by a British sailor on board the "Assistance"&mdash;</p>

+<h4>KALLI IN THE SHIP</h4>
+
+<p>
+<span style="margin-left: 5em;">A frost, like iron, held the air,</span><br />
+<span style="margin-left: 6em;">A calm was on the sea,</span><br />
+<span style="margin-left: 5em;">But fields of ice were spreading there,</span><br />
+<span style="margin-left: 6em;">And closing on our lee.</span><br />
+<br />
+<span style="margin-left: 5em;">Our ship half bound, as if aground,</span><br />
+<span style="margin-left: 6em;">Was scarcely seen to go.</span><br />
+<span style="margin-left: 5em;">All hands on deck were gather'd round</span><br />
+<span style="margin-left: 6em;">The little ESQUIMAUX.</span><br />
+<br />
+<span style="margin-left: 5em;">For he had come amongst our crew,</span><br />
+<span style="margin-left: 6em;">A week or so before,</span><br />
+<span style="margin-left: 5em;">And now we knew not what to do</span><br />
+<span style="margin-left: 6em;">To put him safe ashore.</span><br />
+<br />
+<span class="left"><a name="Page_14" id="Page_14">[Pg&nbsp;14]</a></span>
+<span style="margin-left: 5em;">Poor lad, he strain'd his eyes in vain,</span><br />
+<span style="margin-left: 6em;">Till tears began to come,</span><br />
+<span style="margin-left: 5em;">And tried if he could see again</span><br />
+<span style="margin-left: 6em;">His mother and his home.</span><br />
+<br />
+<span style="margin-left: 5em;">The Captain then saw through his glass</span><br />
+<span style="margin-left: 6em;">The Inlet, and the Bay,</span><br />
+<span style="margin-left: 5em;">But floes of ice, as green as grass,</span><br />
+<span style="margin-left: 6em;">And icebergs block'd the way.</span><br />
+<br />
+<span style="margin-left: 5em;">"Up with the sail!&mdash;the wind's awake!"</span><br />
+<span style="margin-left: 6em;">Hark to the Captain's call,</span><br />
+<span style="margin-left: 5em;">"I see, my boys, we shall not make</span><br />
+<span style="margin-left: 6em;">York Inlet, after all."</span><br />
+<br />
+<span style="margin-left: 5em;">We look'd upon the swarthy lad,</span><br />
+<span style="margin-left: 6em;">Then look'd upon each other,</span><br />
+<span style="margin-left: 5em;">And all were sure that he was sad</span><br />
+<span style="margin-left: 6em;">With thinking of his mother.</span><br />
+<br />
+<span style="margin-left: 5em;">We cheer'd him up, and soon he grew</span><br />
+<span style="margin-left: 6em;">So useful and so kind,</span><br />
+<span style="margin-left: 5em;">The crew were glad, and Kalli too,</span><br />
+<span style="margin-left: 6em;">He was not left behind.</span><br />
+<br />
+<span style="margin-left: 5em;">He learn'd to make the best of it,</span><br />
+<span style="margin-left: 6em;">And now, by time and care,</span><br />
+<span style="margin-left: 5em;">They tell us he can read a bit,</span><br />
+<span style="margin-left: 6em;">And say an easy prayer.</span><br />
+<br />
+<span style="margin-left: 5em;">O Kalli, fail not, day by day,</span><br />
+<span style="margin-left: 6em;">To kneel to God above;</span><br />
+<span style="margin-left: 5em;">Then He will hear you when you pray,</span><br />
+<span style="margin-left: 6em;">And guard you with his love.</span><br />
+<br />
+<span style="margin-left: 5em;">Go on, my friend, in years and grace,</span><br />
+<span style="margin-left: 6em;">Your precious time employ,</span><br />
+<span style="margin-left: 5em;">And you will pass, in wisdom's race,</span><br />
+<span style="margin-left: 6em;">The idle English boy.</span><br />
+<br />
+<span style="margin-left: 5em;">Nay, if you learn and practise too</span><br />
+<span style="margin-left: 6em;">The lessons of your youth,</span><br />
+<span style="margin-left: 5em;">Some heathen tribes may gain from you</span><br />
+<span style="margin-left: 6em;">The light of Gospel truth.</span><br /></p>

+<h4>Description of the Esquimaux</h4>
+<span class="right"><a class="contents" href="#Page_5">[Go to Table of Contents]</a></span>
+<br /><p>It may here be interesting to say a few words respecting the people
+who inhabit the gloomy abodes whence Kallihirua came, and where he had
+passed the greater part of his life.</p>

+<h4>Admiral Beechey's Account</h4>
+<span class="right"><a class="contents" href="#Page_5">[Go to Table of Contents]</a></span>
+<br /><p>"The characteristic features of the Esquimaux," says Admiral Beechey,
+"are large fat round faces, high cheek-bones, small hazel eyes,
+eyebrows slanting like the Chinese, and wide mouths." They are
+generally under five feet high, and have brown complexions. Beechey,
+in his Narrative of a Voyage to Behring's Strait, &amp;c., in H.M.S.
+"Blossom," gave a curious and particular description of the habits and
+customs of the Esquimaux, their wretched hovels, or "yourts,"
+snow-dwellings, and underground huts, and the general want of
+cleanliness in their persons and dwellings.</p>
+
+<p>Speaking of a tribe which he visited, he says, "We found them very
+honest, extremely good-natured and friendly. Their tents were
+constructed of skins, loosely stretched over a few spars of
+drift-wood, and were neither wind nor water tight. The tents were, as
+usual, filthy, but suitable to the taste of their inhabitants, who no
+doubt saw nothing in them that was revolting. The natives testified
+much pleasure at our visit, and placed before us several dishes,
+amongst which were two of their choicest,&mdash;the entrails of a fine
+seal, and a bowl of coagulated blood. But desirous as we were to
+oblige them, there was not one of our party that could be induced
+<span class="left"><a name="Page_17" id="Page_17">[Pg&nbsp;17]</a></span>
+to partake of their hospitality. Seeing our reluctance, they tried us
+with another dish, consisting of the raw flesh of the narwhal, nicely
+cut into lumps, with an equal distribution of black and white fat, but
+they were not more successful here than at first."</p>
+
+<h4>The Seal</h4>
+<span class="right"><a class="contents" href="#Page_5">[Go to Table of Contents]</a></span>
+<br /><p>The seal's flesh supplies the natives with their most palatable and
+substantial food, which however has a fishy flavour, as the creatures
+feed chiefly on fish. Seals are sometimes taken on land, when
+surprised basking in the sun, with their young. As soon as they are
+alarmed by the sight of their enemies, they scuttle away, and make for
+the sea<a name="FNanchor_4" id="FNanchor_4">
+</a><a href="#Footnote_4" class="fnanchor">[4]</a>.
+It is on the great deep that the Esquimaux, driven by
+hunger, chiefly seeks his precarious food. In his light canoe, which
+is made of seal-skins stretched over a slight framework of wood, he
+hunts, in all weathers, for his prey, especially for the much-prized
+Narwhal.</p>
+
+<p><span style="margin-left: 5em;">There, tumbling in their seal-skin boat,</span><br />
+<span style="margin-left: 5em;">Fearless, the hungry fishers float,</span><br />
+<span style="margin-left: 5em;">And from the teeming seas supply</span><br />
+<span style="margin-left: 5em;">The food their niggard plains deny.</span><br /></p>
+
+<span class="left"><a name="Page_18" id="Page_18">[Pg&nbsp;18]</a></span>
+<h4>The Narwhal</h4>
+<span class="right"><a class="contents" href="#Page_5">[Go to Table of Contents]</a></span>
+<br /><div class="figcenter" style="width: 452px;">
+<img src="images/narwhal.png" width="452" height="450"

+</div>
+<span class="right"><a class="contents" href="#Page_6">[Go to Illustrations]</a></span>
+<br />
+
+<p>The same intrepid boldness is shown in their chase of the reindeer,
+the bear, and the fox. Over the boundless deserts of snow they are
+borne rapidly along
+
+<span class="left"><a name="Page_19" id="Page_19">[Pg&nbsp;19]</a></span>
+by their faithful dogs, which are harnessed to a sledge, six or seven
+to the team, and which scamper away, often in seeming confusion, but
+with a precision of aim and object which is perfectly surprising. No
+country presents a finer specimen of that honest, affectionate,
+much-enduring creature, the dog. Kindness to animals is always
+praiseworthy, and to the honour of the Esquimaux women it must be
+said, that they are remarked for their humane treatment of these dogs.
+They take care of them when they are ill, and use them better than the
+men do. Still under blows and hard usage the dogs are faithful, and
+willing to labour.</p>
+
+<h4>Sir W. Edward Parry's Account</h4>
+<span class="right"><a class="contents" href="#Page_5">[Go to Table of Contents]</a></span>
+<br /><p>The Esquimaux sometimes use slabs of ice for the walls of their huts,
+cementing them together with snow and water. Kennels for their dogs
+are also made of the same material. The late Admiral Sir W. Edward
+Parry, in the course of a voyage commenced in May, 1821, the chief
+object of which was the discovery of the North-West passage, availed
+himself of a winter's imprisonment in the ice, to observe and record
+the ways and manners of the Esquimaux, whose guest he was. His account
+is on the whole satisfactory. "I can
+<span class="left"><a name="Page_20" id="Page_20">[Pg&nbsp;20]</a></span>
+safely affirm," said he, "that, whilst thus lodged beneath their roof,
+I know no people whom I would more confidently trust, as respects
+either my person or my property, than the Esquimaux."</p>
+
+<p>He also described their domestic character. The affection of the
+parents towards their children showed itself in a thousand ways, and
+the children on their part have so much gentleness and docility as to
+render any kind of chastisement unnecessary. Even from their earliest
+infancy, they are said to possess that quietness of disposition,
+gentleness of demeanour, and uncommon evenness of temper, for which in
+more mature age they are for the most part distinguished. Disobedience
+is scarcely ever known; a word or even a look from a parent is enough.</p>
+
+<p>These traits, added to industry and endurance of various kinds of
+difficulty, form the fair side of the picture, such as that amiable
+and distinguished officer was fond of presenting. The exhibition of
+these features of character was probably called forth, in a great
+degree, by his own kindness and good management, whilst living among
+them.</p>
+
+<span class="left"><a name="Page_21" id="Page_21">[Pg&nbsp;21]</a></span>
+<h4>Need of Christian Instruction</h4>
+<span class="right"><a class="contents" href="#Page_5">[Go to Table of Contents]</a></span>
+<br /><p>But doubtless there are other and less favourable points of view in
+which these people must be sometimes considered. At all events, it is
+sad to learn, from the silence of some travellers, and the actual
+statements of others, that the Esquimaux do not appear to have any
+idea of the existence of a Supreme Being, or to hold any notion of
+religion. Separated from the whole civilized world, and frequently
+finding it a struggle to live, even with the help of their faithful
+dogs, they are objects of pity and concern, rather than of sanguine
+hope and expectation to the Christian mind. But were an opportunity to
+occur of carrying the Gospel to their snow-clad land, there is little
+doubt that the remark of Parry, applied to an individual of one of
+their tribes, might be used of all: "On dispositions thus naturally
+charitable, what might not Christian education, and Christian
+principles effect?"</p>
+
+<h4>Kallihirua's Tribe</h4>
+<span class="right"><a class="contents" href="#Page_5">[Go to Table of Contents]</a></span>
+<br /><p>Certainly, the instance now before the reader affords a good
+illustration of this view of the Esquimaux character. It is Captain
+Ommanney's opinion that Kallihirua's tribe may be regarded as a
+remnant of the pure race which, no doubt, in
+<span class="left"><a name="Page_22" id="Page_22">[Pg&nbsp;22]</a></span>
+ages past migrated from Asia along the coasts of the Parry Group of
+Islands and Barrow's Straits. The features, and formation of skull,
+bespeak Tartar extraction. "Their isolated position," he adds, "being
+far north of the Danish settlements in Greenland, and far removed from
+the American continent, has kept them uncontaminated with any of the
+various mixed breeds of which the Esquimaux in those regions must be
+composed."</p>
+
+<h4>Kallihirua in England</h4>
+<span class="right"><a class="contents" href="#Page_5">[Go to Table of Contents]</a></span>
+<br /><p>Captain Ommanney, soon after his arrival in England, brought young
+Kallihirua to the Society for Promoting Christian Knowledge. At that
+time he could only speak a few words, such as "Ship," "Sea," "Very
+sick;" "England, things very nice," "Captain very good". From his
+language and gesture it was gathered, that he had suffered much from
+sea-sickness on the voyage; that he had been treated with the utmost
+care and kindness on board, and that he was highly pleased with
+English fare, and with the reception which he had met with in this
+country.</p>
+
+<p>His manners were so gentle, and even polite, without any seeming
+effort, as to excite astonishment
+<span class="left"><a name="Page_23" id="Page_23">[Pg&nbsp;23]</a></span>
+in those who knew how short a time he had enjoyed the
+advantages of education. It was clear that great pains had been taken
+with him on board the "Assistance," where his great study had been to
+adapt himself to the habits and manners of those among whom his lot
+was so singularly cast. "In this," says Captain Ommanney, "he
+succeeded; for people were surprised at his good address, when he
+reached England."</p>
+
+<h4>His Fondness for Prints and Drawings</h4>
+<span class="right"><a class="contents" href="#Page_5">[Go to Table of Contents]</a></span>
+<br /><p>He was always much pleased with the company of young people, and
+appeared quite at home with them. Some books and prints were placed in
+the hands of the youth, and he expressed the greatest delight in
+seeing views of ships in the ice, and the figure of an Esquimaux
+watching for a seal. After gazing for a few moments at the latter, he
+uttered a cry of pleasure, and said, "This one of my people!" It
+seemed as if, for the time, he had been carried back to his own land,
+which, however homely, was once his home. Had any proof been wanting
+of the faithfulness of the representation, his hearty and joyous
+approval of it would have afforded sufficient evidence of its
+accuracy.</p>
+
+<p>The reader shall see the engraving of the lonely seal-hunter which so
+much pleased poor Kalli.</p>

+<br />
+
+<p>In this situation, we are told, a man will sit quietly for ten or
+twelve hours together, at a temperature of thirty or forty degrees
+below zero, watching for the opportunity of killing and taking the
+seal, which is supposed to be at work making its hole beneath in the
+ice. The Esquimaux, partly sheltered from the "winter's wind," and
+fast-falling snow, by a snow-wall, has got his spear
+<span class="left"><a name="Page_25" id="Page_25">[Pg&nbsp;25]</a></span>
+and lines ready, and he has tied his knees together, to prevent his
+disturbing the seal by making the slightest noise.</p>
+
+<h4>Sights in England</h4>
+<span class="right"><a class="contents" href="#Page_5">[Go to Table of Contents]</a></span>
+<br /><p>Kalli, whilst in London, on a visit to the author, was taken to the
+British Museum. With some of the objects there he was much gratified.
+The antiquities, sculpture, and specimens of art and science, had not
+such charms in his sight as had the life-like forms of stuffed animals
+in that great national collection. With the seals, reindeer, and a
+gigantic walrus, with bright glass eyes, he was especially struck and
+amused, lingering for some time in the attractive apartment which
+contained them.</p>
+
+<p>He had now and then much to bear from rudeness and incivility on the
+part of some thoughtless persons, who derided his personal appearance,
+though they were not successful in putting him out of temper. The
+author recollects an instance of this in a street in London. He was
+walking with Kalli, when two young men, who ought to have known
+better, stared at the youth in passing, and laughed in his face: then
+presently turning round, they said, as they pointed at him, "There
+goes a Chinese!" He merely looked up, smiling,
+<span class="left"><a name="Page_26" id="Page_26">[Pg&nbsp;26]</a></span>
+as if at their ignorance, and want of proper feeling.</p>
+
+<p>It has been observed of the people of his nation, that they evince
+little or no surprise or excitement at such things as occasion
+admiration in others. When Kalli first came up the river Thames with
+Captain Ommanney, and travelled from Woolwich by the railway, thence
+proceeding through the wonderful thoroughfare from London Bridge to
+the West End of the town, passing St. Paul's Cathedral, and Charing
+Cross, he merely said, <i>It was all very good</i>.</p>
+
+<p>"I took him with me," said the Captain, "to the Great Exhibition, the
+Crystal Palace, in Hyde Park. He beheld all the treasures around him
+with great coolness, and only expressed his wonder at the vast
+multitude of people."</p>
+
+<h4>Great Exhibition of 1851</h4>
+<span class="right"><a class="contents" href="#Page_5">[Go to Table of Contents]</a></span>
+<br /><p>This is natural enough. Many of our readers may recall the feelings of
+astonishment with which they viewed that large assemblage. On one of
+the shilling days, in October, 1851, ninety-two thousand human beings
+were collected together in the Crystal Palace at one time
+<a name="FNanchor_5" id="FNanchor_5"></a>
+<a href="#Footnote_5" class="fnanchor">[5]</a>. The force of
+
+<span class="left"><a name="Page_27" id="Page_27">[Pg&nbsp;27]</a></span>
+contrast could perhaps go no further than in this instance. A young
+stranger who, in his own country, in a space of hundreds of miles
+around him, had only three families (probably twelve persons) to
+count, makes one of a multitude of more than ninety thousand of his
+fellow-creatures, in a building of glass, covering only eighteen acres
+of ground!</p>
+
+<p>He was taken to see the Horse Guards' Stables. On seeing a trooper
+mount his charger, (both being fully accoutred,) Kalli was puzzled. He
+could not account for the perfect order and discipline of the animal,
+and the mutual fitness of the man and his horse, the one for the
+other.</p>
+
+<h4>St. Augustine's College</h4>
+<span class="right"><a class="contents" href="#Page_5">[Go to Table of Contents]</a></span>
+<br /><p>In November, 1851, Kallihirua was placed, by direction of the Lords of
+the Admiralty, at the suggestion of the Society for the Propagation of
+the Gospel, in the Missionary College of St. Augustine's, at
+Canterbury. This college, built on the site of the ancient monastery
+of St. Augustine, was established in 1848, for the reception of
+students intended for the work of the sacred Ministry in the colonies
+and dependencies of the British Empire, as well as among the heathen.
+The College, to which the Queen gave a charter of incorporation,
+<span class="left"><a name="Page_28" id="Page_28">[Pg&nbsp;28]</a></span>
+owes its origin chiefly to the munificence
+of A. J. B. Beresford Hope, Esq., who purchased the ground, and gave
+the site. The College Chapel was consecrated on the morning of St.
+Peter's Day, June 29th, 1848, when seven prelates, with the Archbishop
+of Canterbury at their head, were present.</p>
+
+<h4>College Studies</h4>
+<span class="right"><a class="contents" href="#Page_5">[Go to Table of Contents]</a></span>
+<br /><p>Kallihirua remained a student of the College, attending to the
+instruction given him, and conducting himself well and properly in all
+respects. Under the kind auspices of the Rev. H. Bailey, the learned
+and judicious Warden of the College, who took the greatest interest in
+him, he availed himself, as far as his powers admitted, of the
+advantages of the institution. He appeared rightly to understand and
+value the blessings of education in a civilized community, and
+received with reverence the simple and saving truths of the Gospel. It
+was hoped, that, should he willingly and intelligently embrace the
+Christian faith, he might at no distant period convey the "glad
+tidings of good things" as a missionary or catechist to his own
+benighted friends and countrymen.</p>
+
+<span class="left"><a name="Page_29" id="Page_29">[Pg&nbsp;29]</a></span>
+<p>In September, 1852, the Warden, in a letter, informed the author, that
+Kallihirua had been in good health all the summer. "We consider
+him," said he, "a youth of intelligence, and quick observation. His
+progress in reading is necessarily slow, though he can manage words of
+four or five letters, he is fond of writing, and succeeds very well.
+He is very devout at prayers, and attentive to the religious
+instruction given him. I think he will one day be of essential use to
+a missionary in some northern region. He is grateful to you for your
+kind offer of books, and will write a letter of acknowledgment."</p>
+
+<h4>His Reverence for Sacred Places</h4>
+<span class="right"><a class="contents" href="#Page_5">[Go to Table of Contents]</a></span>
+<br /><p>It was but a short time after his settling at St. Augustine's College,
+that one of the students took him to see Canterbury Cathedral. The
+reverent regard with which he had been taught to look upon a church,
+as a place where prayer was made to God, manifested itself in his
+inquiry, when entering the nave, "Whether he might cough there?" This
+tendency to cough, arising from an ailment, the seeds of which had
+probably been sown long before, was often observable; and he was very
+susceptible of cold.</p>
+
+<h4>Illness from Changes in the Weather</h4>
+<span class="right"><a class="contents" href="#Page_5">[Go to Table of Contents]</a></span>
+<br /><p>In the spring of 1853 he suffered much from the variableness of the
+season. The mode in which he described his state to a friend is very
+<span class="left"><a name="Page_30" id="Page_30">[Pg&nbsp;30]</a></span>
+simple and affecting. The original letter, which was entirely his own,
+both in composition and handwriting, is here copied verbatim. It
+commences with his signature:&mdash;</p>
+
+<p><span style="margin-left: 5em;">"E. YORK, St. Augustine's College. April, 1853.</span><br /></p>
+
+<p><span style="margin-left: 5em;">"My dear Sir,</span><br /></p>
+
+<p><span style="margin-left: 2em;">"I am very glad to tell, How do you do, Sir?</span><br />
+<span style="margin-left: 2em;">I been England, long time none very well. Long</span><br />
+<span style="margin-left: 2em;">time none very well. Very bad weather. I know</span><br />
+<span style="margin-left: 2em;">very well, very bad cough. I very sorry, very</span><br />
+<span style="margin-left: 2em;">bad weather, dreadful. Country very difference.</span><br />
+<span style="margin-left: 2em;">Another day cold. Another day wet, I miserable.</span></p>
+
+<p><span style="margin-left: 2em;">"Another summer come. Very glad. Great</span><br />
+<span style="margin-left: 2em;">many trees. Many wood. Summer beautiful,</span><br />
+<span style="margin-left: 2em;">country Canterbury."</span></p>
+
+<p>Should any reader be disposed to look with the smile of a critic on
+this humble but genuine effort, let him bear in mind the difficulties
+which poor <i>English</i> adults have to encounter in learning to read and
+write; and then let him judge of the obstacles in the way of one whose
+existence had been spent with his native tribe, on fields of ice, and
+in dark snow-huts.</p>
+
+<span class="left"><a name="Page_31" id="Page_31">[Pg&nbsp;31]</a></span>
+<p>In all attacks of illness he was attended with assiduous kindness by
+Mr. Hallowes, of Canterbury, the skilful surgeon employed by the
+College, who showed much hospitality to Kalli. One of Mr. Hallowes'
+family circle on Christmas-day was always the good-humoured
+broad-faced Esquimaux. At their juvenile parties, the youth joined
+cheerfully in the sports of the children, and he sometimes sung them
+some of the wild and plaintive airs peculiar to his tribe.</p>
+
+<p>It is believed that Kalli never omitted his morning and evening
+prayers by his bed-side, and his utterance was full of devout
+earnestness. Mr. Bailey remembers once travelling with him to Deal,
+and while in the railway carriage, the youth quietly took out of his
+pocket a little book, which was afterwards found to be a collection of
+texts for each day in the year. For some time he was reading
+thoughtfully the text for the day. No notice was taken of this to him;
+and as for himself, never perhaps was any one more free from the least
+approach to ostentation.</p>
+
+<h4>Greenland-Esquimaux Vocabulary</h4>
+<span class="right"><a class="contents" href="#Page_5">[Go to Table of Contents]</a></span>
+<br /><p>In the year 1853, Kalli rendered essential Service in the preparation
+of a Greenland Esquimaux Vocabulary, for the use of the Arctic
+
+<span class="left"><a name="Page_32" id="Page_32">[Pg&nbsp;32]</a></span>
+Expedition of that year. The work was printed by direction of the
+Lords of the Admiralty, with a short Preface acknowledging the
+advantage of his assistance. Captain Washington, R.N., Hydrographer of
+the Admiralty, says in the Preface, "Every word has now been revised
+from the lips of a native. In the Midsummer vacation in 1852
+Kallihirua passed some days with me, and we went partly over the
+Vocabulary. I found him intelligent, speaking English very fairly,
+docile and imitative, his great pleasure appearing to be a pencil and
+paper, with which he drew animals and ships. At the Christmas
+holidays, we revised more of the Vocabulary, &amp;c."</p>
+
+<p>A member of the Expedition afterwards visited St. Augustine's College
+and stated that the Vocabulary had been found to be of much service.</p>
+
+<h4>Visit to Kalli at College</h4>
+<span class="right"><a class="contents" href="#Page_5">[Go to Table of Contents]</a></span>
+<br /><p>The writer of this Memoir well recollects the circumstances of a visit
+which he paid with his family to St. Augustine's College, Canterbury,
+on a bright day, in August, 1853, when (it being the vacation) only
+three students remained in residence. These were 1. Kallihirua, 2. a
+young Hindoo by name Mark Pitamber Paul, and 3. Lambert
+<span class="left"><a name="Page_33" id="Page_33">[Pg&nbsp;33]</a></span>
+McKenzie, a youth of colour, a native of Africa, sent to the College
+by the Bishop of Guiana. Kalli, who was the only one of these
+personally known to the author, did not at first appear. He had
+strolled out to witness a cricket-match in a field near Canterbury,
+but Blunsom, the College porter, said that he had promised to return
+by two o'clock, and that he was very punctual.</p>
+
+<p>It is here due both to Blunsom and his wife, to say that they were
+most kind friends to Kalli, watching over him with the most thoughtful
+attention, and the tenderest care throughout.</p>
+
+<p>As the Cathedral clock struck two, Kalli entered the College-gates.
+With hair black as the raven's wing, and eyes sparkling with
+good-humour, he made his appearance; and soon showed a desire to do
+the honours of the College. His dress was neat, like that of a young
+English gentleman, and he had a gaiety of look and manner, but far
+removed from foppery of apparel or demeanour. With true
+politeness&mdash;that of the heart&mdash;he accompanied the visitors
+over the Library, the Chapel, the Common Hall and the Dormitories of
+the College; each student having a small bed-room and study to
+himself.</p>
+
+<span class="left"><a name="Page_34" id="Page_34">[Pg&nbsp;34]</a></span>
+<h4>His Amusements and Occupations</h4>
+<span class="right"><a class="contents" href="#Page_5">[Go to Table of Contents]</a></span>
+<br /><p>Kalli took great pleasure in exhibiting the carpenter's shop, a
+spacious crypt below the Library. Attention was there called to the
+wooden frame of a small house, in the construction of which, it
+appeared, he had borne a part. He said, when asked, that he should
+most probably find the knowledge of carpentering valuable some day,
+and that he should like to teach his countrymen the many good and
+useful things which he had learned in his College. He spoke little,
+and was evidently conscious of his imperfect pronunciation, but in
+answer to a question on the subject, he said he hoped to tell his
+people about religion, and the truths of the Gospel which he had been
+taught in England.</p>
+
+<p>His amusements were of a quiet and innocent kind. He made small models
+of his country sledges, one of which, a very creditable performance,
+is in the Museum in the College Library, and a rough rustic chair, now
+in the College garden, is of his manufacture. He was fond of drawing
+ships, and figures of the Seal, the Walrus, the Reindeer, the
+Esquimaux Dog, and other objects familiar to him in the Arctic
+regions.</p>
+
+<span class="left"><a name="Page_35" id="Page_35">[Pg&nbsp;35]</a></span>

+alt="Walrus and Seal" title="WALRUS AND SEAL" />
+</div>
+<span class="right"><a class="contents" href="#Page_6">[Go to Illustrations]</a></span>
+<br />
+
+<p>His sketches of animals and ships were very correct, and he used
+sometimes to draw them for the amusement of children.</p>
+
+<p>When on board the "Assistance," he made a good
+<span class="left"><a name="Page_36" id="Page_36">[Pg&nbsp;36]</a></span>
+sketch of the coast line of the region which his tribe frequented,
+from Cape York to Smith's Sound.</p>
+
+<p>The use which he made of the needle must not be forgotten. For a year
+and a half, whilst at Canterbury, he went regularly for five hours a
+day to a tailor to learn the trade, and was found very handy with his
+needle. He proved to be of much use in the ordinary work of the trade.</p>
+
+<h4>Baptism of Kallihirua</h4>
+<span class="right"><a class="contents" href="#Page_5">[Go to Table of Contents]</a></span>
+<br /><p>We now come to an important event in the history of Kallihirua; his
+Baptism, which took place on Advent Sunday, Nov. 27th, 1853, in St.
+Martin's Church, near Canterbury. "The visitors present on the
+occasion," said an eye-witness<a name="FNanchor_6" id="FNanchor_6">
+</a><a href="#Footnote_6" class="fnanchor">[6]</a>, "were, the Rev. John Philip Gell
+(late Warden of Christ's College, Tasmania), accompanied by Mrs. Gell,
+daughter of the late Sir John Franklin; Captain Erasmus Ommanney, R.N.
+(who brought Kallihirua to England), and Mrs. Ommanney, Captain
+Washington, R.N., of the Admiralty, and the Rev. W. T. Bullock. The
+Rev. T. B. Murray, Secretary of the Society for Promoting Christian
+Knowledge, who had been invited, was, in consequence of engagements in
+London, unfortunately unable to be present".</p>
+

+<div class="figcenter" style="width: 500px;">

+<br />
+
+<span class="left"><a name="Page_39" id="Page_39">[Pg&nbsp;39]</a></span>
+<p>"Towards three o'clock in the afternoon, small parties began to issue
+from the College gateway in the direction of St. Martin's,&mdash;that
+picturesque little church, looking from its calm hill-side over the
+broad Stour valley, and over the cathedral and the steeples of the
+town half emerging from the smoke. In the interior of this oldest of
+the English churches there is an ancient font, which stands upon the
+spot (if it be not the very font itself), where King Ethelbert, the
+firstfruits of the Anglo-Saxon race, was baptized more than twelve
+hundred and fifty years ago by Augustine.</p>
+
+<p>"In the enclosure round this font sat Kallihirua, and his 'chosen
+witnesses' Captain Ommanney, and the Subwarden, Mrs. Bailey, and Mrs.
+Gell. The remainder of the church was quite filled with an attentive
+and apparently deeply-interested congregation, many of them of the
+poorer class to whom Kalli is well known either by face (as indeed he
+could not well fail to be), or as the comrade of their children in the
+spelling-class at school.</p>
+
+<p>"After the Second Lesson, the Warden proceeded to the font, and the
+Baptismal Service
+<span class="left"><a name="Page_40" id="Page_40">[Pg&nbsp;40]</a></span>
+commenced. Kallihirua, as an adult, made the responses for himself,
+and in a clear firm tone, which seemed to intimate that he had made
+his choice for once and for ever, that he had cast in his lot with us,
+and taken our people for his people, and our God for his God, and felt
+with an intelligent appreciation the privilege of that new brotherhood
+into which he was admitted.</p>
+
+<p>"May his admission within the pale of Christ's holy Church be, (as was
+the prayer of many, beyond the walls of St. Martin's, on that day,)
+both to himself and to many of his race, an event pregnant of eternal
+issues! 'May the fulness of God's blessing,' to use the words of one
+of our most valued friends, 'rest upon it, and make it the first
+streak of a clear and steady light, shining from St. Augustine's into
+the far North.' The Christian names added to his original Esquimaux
+name, were 'Erasmus,' after Captain Ommanney, and 'Augustine,' in
+remembrance of the College.</p>
+
+<p>"The service being concluded, an excellent sermon was preached by the
+Rev. J. P. Gell, on the text, Isaiah lxv. 1: 'I am sought of them that
+asked not for me; I am found of them that sought
+<span class="left"><a name="Page_41" id="Page_41">[Pg&nbsp;41]</a></span>
+me not: I said, Behold me, behold me, unto a nation that was not
+called by my name.' Afterwards the same kind friend attended our
+Sunday evening meeting in the Warden's house, and gave us some
+interesting details of the missionary work (in which he had himself
+borne a part) in Van Diemen's Land. The drift of his remarks was to
+give encouragement to the principle of steady faithful persevering
+energy, undamped by early difficulties, and not impatient of the day
+of small things; and to show by convincing examples (especially that
+of Mr. Davis, a devoted missionary in that country) how such conduct
+is sure in the end to meet with a success of the soundest and most
+permanent kind, because founded on the spontaneous sympathy of the
+people, and on the blessings of the poor, 'not loud but deep.'</p>
+
+<p>"Kallihirua had received a very handsome present in the shape of a
+beautifully bound Bible and Prayer Book, as a baptismal gift from the
+Society for Promoting Christian Knowledge."</p>
+
+<p>It may be interesting to add, that the water used in the baptism was
+from the river Jordan, and that it had been brought from thence by
+Captain Ommanney himself.</p>
+
+<span class="left"><a name="Page_42" id="Page_42">[Pg&nbsp;42]</a></span>
+<p>In the <i>Gospel Missionary</i> for February, 1854, was a pleasing
+description of the Baptism of Kallihirua: and this was the sound and
+practical conclusion:&mdash;</p>
+
+<p>"Before we conclude, we may, perhaps, express the hope that our young
+friends will sometimes think kindly of their new Christian brother,
+<span class="smcap">Erasmus Augustine Kallihirua</span>, and that they will
+pray that God will bless him, and make him to advance more and more in
+the knowledge and the love of His dear Son <span class="smcap">Jesus Christ</span>. When they
+thus think of him who is now made their own brother by baptism, and is
+thus brought into the family of <span class="smcap">Christ's</span> people, let them learn to
+value the good things which <span class="smcap">God</span> has given <i>them</i> in such rich
+abundance. Let them be thankful that they were born in a Christian
+country, in which they have been taught from children to know the Holy
+Scriptures, which are able to make them wise unto salvation through
+faith which is in <span class="smcap">Christ Jesus</span>."</p>
+
+<h4>Stanzas by the Warden</h4>
+<span class="right"><a class="contents" href="#Page_5">[Go to Table of Contents]</a></span>
+<br /><p>The following stanzas, written by the Warden on the occasion of the
+baptism, will be read with pleasure, especially by those who are aware
+how faithfully the amiable writer of them fulfilled his part
+<span class="left"><a name="Page_43" id="Page_43">[Pg&nbsp;43]</a></span>
+in preparing Kallihirua, not only for the right performance of such
+duties as seemed to await him in life, but (what was far more
+important) for an early death.</p>
+
+
+<h4>THE BAPTISM OF KALLIHIRUA</h4>
+
+<p>"<span class="smcap">I will take you one of a city, and two of a family, and I will

+<span style="margin-left: 4em;">That yearns for better things, by grace</span><br />

+<h4>Kalli at St. John's Newfoundland</h4>
+<span class="right"><a class="contents" href="#Page_5">[Go to Table of Contents]</a></span>
+<br /><p>The time having now arrived at which, according to the opinion of the
+Bishop of Newfoundland, and the Warden of St. Augustine's, the
+qualifications
+<span class="left"><a name="Page_45" id="Page_45">[Pg&nbsp;45]</a></span>
+of Kallihirua might be turned to some account, as an aid to
+missionaries in their efforts among the Esquimaux of Labrador, he left
+England, in the autumn of the year 1855, for further training at St.
+John's, Newfoundland. This step was taken at the expense of the
+Admiralty, who agreed to allow him &pound;25 a year for three years.</p>
+
+<p>The following notice of his character appeared in the 'Occasional
+Paper,' published in St. Augustine's College at the time of his
+removal to Newfoundland. At every step of his short but remarkable
+course, such willing testimony always awaited him.</p>
+
+<p>"Kallihirua, whose name is known as widely as that of his College, has
+arrived at another crisis in his eventful history. Having resided more
+than three years in College, he has been transferred to the
+experienced care of the Bishop of Newfoundland, with the view to his
+probable usefulness among the Esquimaux of Labrador. If integrity of
+moral principle, gentleness of spirit, docility of manners,
+willingness to be useful, and true Christian politeness, are essential
+requisites in a Missionary, then is Kallihirua certain to fill
+<span class="left"><a name="Page_46" id="Page_46">[Pg&nbsp;46]</a></span>
+his place well, if only the right place is found for him."</p>
+
+<p>Kalli arrived in St John's, Newfoundland, on the 2nd October, 1855,
+and, on the following day, wrote a letter to Captain Ommanney, telling
+him that he had suffered on the voyage from the motion of the vessel,
+which had caused severe headaches. He added, "St John's puts me in
+mind of my own country. I have already found a great number of kind
+friends, and feel so happy."</p>
+
+<p>He was immediately admitted into the College of the Theological
+Institution for further training, and it was the Bishop's intention to
+have taken him in the summer of 1856 in the Church-ship to the coast
+of Labrador, with the view particularly of comparing his language with
+that of the Esquimaux on the American continent, who are included
+under the government, and consequently in the diocese, of
+Newfoundland.</p>
+
+<p>That he was not unfitted for this task, appears from a passage in the
+preface to the Greenland-Esquimaux Vocabulary. Captain Washington
+observes: "On comparing the Labrador with the Greenland dialect of the
+Esquimaux, it was found
+<span class="left"><a name="Page_47" id="Page_47">[Pg&nbsp;47]</a></span>
+that nearly one-half the words given by Mr. Platon were similar to the
+former. On going over the vocabulary with Kallihirua, generally
+speaking he recognized the Greenland word. When he did not do so, the
+Labrador was mentioned, which, in most cases, he caught at directly.
+These words have been added. There would thus appear to be even a
+greater degree of similarity between the Labrador and Greenland
+dialects than might have been expected, and it is evident that the
+Greenland dialect, as Mr. Platon states, is spoken by all the
+Esquimaux to the head of Baffin's Bay."</p>
+
+<p>Kalli had some conversation with a Moravian Missionary from Labrador.
+The language was in most respects similar, though there was evidently
+a difficulty in understanding each other.</p>
+
+<h4>Death of Archdeacon Bridge</h4>
+<span class="right"><a class="contents" href="#Page_5">[Go to Table of Contents]</a></span>
+<br /><p>It may be mentioned, as a circumstance of melancholy interest, that,
+besides Kallihirua, the late Venerable T. F. H. Bridge, Archdeacon of
+Newfoundland, was to have accompanied and assisted the Bishop in this
+voyage, which it was proposed should have extended to the Moravian
+settlement. Moravian Missions have been established in Greenland for
+more than a century.
+<span class="left"><a name="Page_48" id="Page_48">[Pg&nbsp;48]</a></span>
+But the expedition contemplated by the Bishop was more particularly
+designed to open Sandwich and Esquimaux Bays to the much-needed
+Missionary.</p>
+
+<p>These projects it was determined, in the good providence of God, were
+not to be realized. Archdeacon Bridge was prematurely carried off, in
+the midst of his zealous and successful labours, at the end of
+February, 1856. "He worked himself to death!" said the Bishop. "His
+death was felt in the colony as a public loss."</p>
+
+<h4>Intelligence from Newfoundland</h4>
+<span class="right"><a class="contents" href="#Page_5">[Go to Table of Contents]</a></span>
+<br /><p>The author of this memoir had written to Kallihirua, whilst he was at
+St. Augustine's, and had received from him a letter shortly, and
+plainly expressed, which the Warden stated to have been composed and
+written by the youth himself, and which proved how anxious he was to
+do well that which was given him to do. The author afterwards often
+thought of the amiable Kalli, and was in hopes of soon hearing from
+him in his new abode in Newfoundland. But man proposeth, and God
+disposeth. A St. John's paper, <i>The Newfoundland Express</i>, taken up
+casually in July, 1856, conveyed the intelligence that Kallihirua had
+passed away from this busy anxious
+<span class="left"><a name="Page_49" id="Page_49">[Pg&nbsp;49]</a></span>
+world to another, and, we humbly and reasonably hope, a better and
+happier.</p>
+
+<p>A melancholy interest generally attaches to the history of individuals
+dying in a foreign and strange land, far from friends and home. The
+separation from all they have known and loved is, in their case, so
+entire, the change of their circumstances, habits, and associations,
+so great, that such a dispensation specially appeals to the sympathy
+of all Christian hearts.</p>
+
+<h4>Allusion to Prince Le Boo</h4>
+<span class="right"><a class="contents" href="#Page_5">[Go to Table of Contents]</a></span>
+<br /><p>Feelings of this kind are excited by the narrative of the early death
+of Prince Le Boo, a youthful native of the Pelew Islands, who was
+brought over to this country in July, 1784, and who, in the
+spring-time of life, after little more than five months' stay in
+England, fell a victim, to the small pox. In the memoir of that young
+prince, who died at Rotherhithe, and was buried in the church-yard
+there, in December, 1784, there are some points of resemblance to the
+case under our notice. The natural and unforced politeness of the
+youth, his aptness at conforming, in all proper things, to the habits
+and customs of those to whose hospitality he was intrusted; his warm
+and single-hearted
+<span class="left"><a name="Page_50" id="Page_50">[Pg&nbsp;50]</a></span>
+affection for such persons, in whatever station, as showed him kind
+offices, his desire for mental improvement; his resignation and
+submission in his last illness to the will of God, these are features
+which remind us of the subject of our present memoir. Many are the
+tears which have fallen over the story of the young and amiable Prince
+Le Boo.</p>
+
+<h4>Accounts from St. John's</h4>
+<span class="right"><a class="contents" href="#Page_5">[Go to Table of Contents]</a></span>
+<br /><p>But to resume the thread of the narrative respecting Kalli. During the
+winter of 1855 and 1856 he had suffered frequently from cough, and
+shown other signs of constitutional weakness. His cheerfulness,
+however, had seldom failed him; his readiness to please, and be
+pleased, to oblige, and be obliged, never. In letters which he sent to
+friends in England, he always spoke with gratitude of the kindness
+shown him, and of being very happy.</p>
+
+<h4>Letter from Kalli</h4>
+<span class="right"><a class="contents" href="#Page_5">[Go to Table of Contents]</a></span>
+<br /><p>The following letter to Mr. Blunsom, who, as it will have been seen,
+had treated him with constant kindness, and done him much good
+service, will be read with interest.</p>
+
+<p><span style="margin-left: 10em;">"St John's College, Newfoundland,</span><br />
+<span style="margin-left: 12em;">January 7, 1856.</span><br /></p>
+
+<p>"I received your kind letter by the December
+<span class="left"><a name="Page_51" id="Page_51">[Pg&nbsp;51]</a></span>
+mail, and am very sorry to hear of your illness. The weather here is
+very cold, I feel it more than at Cape York. I have begun to skate,
+and find it a pleasant amusement. There is a lake a little distance
+from the College, called, 'Quidi Vidi,' on which we practise. The
+Bishop is very kind and good to me. College here is not so large and
+fine a place as St. Augustine's: nor are there so many students. I
+hope that all my kind friends at Canterbury are quite well. Please
+remember me kindly to Mr. and Mrs. Gipps, and all at St. Augustine's.

+
+<h4>Kalli's Illness and Death</h4>
+<span class="right"><a class="contents" href="#Page_5">[Go to Table of Contents]</a></span>
+<br /><p>With respect to the fatal attack under which he soon sunk, it has to
+be mentioned, that he had gone out to bathe with one of his
+fellow-students at St. John's, on Saturday, the 7th June. From
+continuing too long in the water, which was very cold, he caught a
+chill, and showed many symptoms of inflammation for some days. On
+Wednesday, good medical assistance was called in, but his constitution
+had received too violent a shock. The Surgeon had fears from the first
+that his patient
+<span class="left"><a name="Page_52" id="Page_52">[Pg&nbsp;52]</a></span>
+would not recover. It has been observed by medical men, that Esquimaux
+have but little stamina, and generally fail under the first attack of
+serious illness. Kalli was kindly watched and assisted by the Rev. J.
+G. Mountain, and Mrs. Mountain, and his fellow-students. He got
+rapidly worse. On the Thursday he seemed utterly powerless, and could
+not lift up his arms, nor put them out of his bed. He was very
+restless during the greater part of Friday night.</p>
+
+<p>"Soon after ten o'clock on Saturday morning, June 14th," said the
+Bishop of Newfoundland, "his gentle soul departed. I saw him
+frequently during his illness (three times the last day), and he
+always assented most readily, when I reminded him of God's gracious
+goodness in visiting him; and that it would be better for him to
+depart, and be with Christ. It was remarkable that his English was
+more clear and distinct in his illness than I had ever known it; and
+though he said but very little, he seemed to understand better than
+ever before. The last seizure was so sudden and violent, that he did
+not articulate at all. He expired, whilst I was commending his soul to
+his faithful Creator and most merciful Saviour."</p>
+
+<span class="left"><a name="Page_53" id="Page_53">[Pg&nbsp;53]</a></span>
+<p>He is stated to have died of "melanosis of the lungs," a
+disease in which the whole substance of the lungs turns completely
+black. It is very slow in its first advances, but fearfully rapid in
+its latter stages. The Bishop had the chest examined after death, and
+sent a copy of the Surgeon's report to the Warden of St. Augustine's.</p>
+
+<p>In a full communication, made to the Warden, the Bishop said, "The
+almost suddenness of our good gentle Kalli's removal makes it
+difficult to realize the fact that 'he is gone.' I still look for his
+familiar strange face among the students, wondering at his unwonted
+absence. He seemed quite identified with our little company. We all
+miss him greatly, but he has now entered on that perfect rest which he
+seemed made for, and is delivered from a troublesome, naughty world
+for which he was certainly not made."</p>
+
+<p>The Bishop also spoke of Kalli's <i>submission to those set over him;
+his kindness to all around him, and his attention to all his religious
+duties</i>.</p>
+
+<p>Many young persons, born and bred in our own country, and brought up
+from the cradle in the very midst of Christian instruction, may glean
+a valuable lesson from the character of this lamented
+<span class="left"><a name="Page_54" id="Page_54">[Pg&nbsp;54]</a></span>
+Esquimaux Christian. They may ask themselves, with some feeling of
+self-reproof, whether they should have merited such praise from one so
+revered, and so well qualified to judge. "Perhaps," added Bishop
+Feild, "I was a little proud at being able to exhibit a far-off
+Esquimaux brought near, and among my own scholars."</p>
+
+<p>During Kalli's last illness, which, though short, was not without
+considerable suffering, the same spirit of resignation and
+thankfulness, which he had always shown, was evinced. "Mr. D&mdash;&mdash; very
+kind," "K&mdash;&mdash; very kind," "Mrs.&mdash;&mdash; very kind," "Sorry to give so much
+trouble," were expressions continually on his lips, as he was visited
+and assisted by his fellow-students, and other friends in succession.
+His gentle spirit departed in the presence of the Rev. Thomas Wood,
+the Rev. Principal of the College, and all his fellow-students.</p>
+
+<p>The Rev. J. F. Phelps, Vice-Principal of St. John's College,
+Newfoundland, who had been a fellow-student of Kalli's, at St.
+Augustine's, wrote thus, June 25, 1856, respecting him.</p>
+
+<p>"I have every reason to believe and hope that he has been translated
+to a better state,
+<span class="left"><a name="Page_55" id="Page_55">[Pg&nbsp;55]</a></span>
+and that he now rests in his Saviour: for though he had not much
+knowledge, yet few indeed act up to their knowledge so well and
+consistently as he did to his. It must be a comfort to you, Sir, to be
+assured that in his last moments he was cared for, and attended by all
+members of the College here, the students constantly being with him,
+as well as Mr. and Mrs. Mountain and myself. He showed himself very
+grateful for all that was being done for him, and expressed great
+sorrow at giving so much trouble. He always spoke of his friends in
+England with great affection, and was delighted whenever he received
+letters from them, which he was always eager to answer. Altogether,
+his was a very amiable character, and we all felt his loss very much."</p>
+
+<p>In another letter from Mr. Phelps is the following passage:&mdash;</p>
+
+<p>"During his last illness, in his conversation with me, it was evident
+that he quite understood the principle on which we Christians ought to
+bear our sufferings, patiently, and even thankfully, because of the
+still greater sufferings which we deserve, and which our Divine
+Saviour bore for us. I was, I confess, surprised at the readiness
+<span class="left"><a name="Page_56" id="Page_56">[Pg&nbsp;56]</a></span>
+with which he realized the truth and the force of this reasoning."</p>
+
+<h4>Legacy to a Friend</h4>
+<span class="right"><a class="contents" href="#Page_5">[Go to Table of Contents]</a></span>
+<br /><p>The author had often remarked the very grateful manner in which the
+youth acknowledged any kindness shown towards him. He spoke with the
+utmost affection of his dear friends, Captain Ommanney, Captain
+Austin, R.N., the Rev. the Warden of St. Augustine's College, and Mrs.
+Bailey. Mrs. Bailey, he said, taught him constantly his readings in
+the New Testament, heard him his hymns, and corrected his
+writing-exercises. The Rev. A. P. Moor, Sub-Warden of the College, was
+also very kind to him, and gained his regard.</p>
+
+<p>Of the moderate means placed at his disposal he was always properly
+careful, expending very little upon himself. He had a few pounds laid
+up in the Savings' Bank at Canterbury. This amount, together with his
+humble store of goods and chattels, consisting chiefly of the prints
+which had adorned his room, he left, by a kind of will, to his
+untiring and constant friend, Captain Ommanney, in token of gratitude
+and regard.</p>
+
+<h4>Kalli's Funeral</h4>
+<span class="right"><a class="contents" href="#Page_5">[Go to Table of Contents]</a></span>
+<br /><p>The remains of Kallihirua were borne to the grave by his
+fellow-students, and followed by the Vice-Principal of the College,
+and by the Bishop
+<span class="left"><a name="Page_57" id="Page_57">[Pg&nbsp;57]</a></span>
+of Newfoundland, as chief mourner. The Burial Service in the church
+(St. Thomas's) was conducted by the Rev. Mr. Wood, and in the cemetery
+by the Rev. Mr. Mountain, the Principal of the College. The quiet
+solemnity of the service was in keeping with the life and death of the
+gentle Kalli.</p>
+
+<p>Mrs. Mountain, of St. John's, Newfoundland, in whose house he lived,
+and who had kindly assisted in instructing him, wrote as follows:&mdash;</p>
+
+<p>"It is in sincere sorrow and mourning that I write to inform you that
+we yesterday followed to the grave our poor Erasmus Kallihirua. He
+died after only a few days' illness, brought on by incautiously going
+out to bathe with one of our other students. On the following day,
+when he came to me to read, as usual, he complained of great pain in
+the chest and side, and so rapid was the inflammation, that the usual
+remedies were unavailing.</p>
+
+<p>"Poor fellow, he was as patient and gentle during his illness, as he
+always was when he was well and strong, and expressed perfect
+resignation to God's will, and much thankfulness to those who
+ministered to him. We all loved him for his unvarying kindness and
+gentleness, his submission to those set over him, and his willingness
+to serve<span class="left"><a name="Page_58" id="Page_58">[Pg&nbsp;58]</a></span>
+all. I miss him so very much, not only in his daily lessons, but in
+his constant knock at our door, to know whether I had any thing for
+him to do in the garden, or a message in the town when he was going
+out for a walk.</p>
+
+<p>"He looked very nice, lying in his silver-white coffin, covered with
+flowers, and a bunch of lilies and wild pear-blossoms on his bosom. We
+trust that he was one of the blessed meek who shall inherit the earth.
+We were all with him when he breathed his last, the Bishop, and the
+Principal of St. John's College, commending his soul to his faithful
+Creator."</p>
+
+<h4>Intended Memorial</h4>
+<span class="right"><a class="contents" href="#Page_5">[Go to Table of Contents]</a></span>
+<br /><p>It is proposed to inscribe a record of Kalli, and of other deceased
+students of St. Augustine's College, on a tablet in the crypt under
+the College Chapel. A memorial stone will be erected over Kalli's
+grave in St. John's, Newfoundland.</p>
+
+<p>With reference to the recent decease of some hopeful students of St.
+Augustine's, who, after giving promise of much usefulness in the cause
+of missions, had been removed from this earthly scene, Mr. Phelps
+observed in a letter lately printed at the St. Augustine's College
+Press:&mdash;</p>
+
+<p>"The whole College is again reminded, that 'all
+<span class="left"><a name="Page_59" id="Page_59">[Pg&nbsp;59]</a></span>
+flesh is grass,' and that our life 'is even a vapour that appeareth
+for a little time, and then vanisheth away.' Poor Kalli is no longer
+with us. He has been made fit for the Master's use, and has been taken
+back by Him who lent him to us."</p>
+
+<h4>Practical Reflections</h4>
+<span class="right"><a class="contents" href="#Page_5">[Go to Table of Contents]</a></span>
+<br /><p>The writer in the "Newfoundland Express" made the following practical
+reflections on Kalli's early death, which suggest serious though
+cheering thoughts:&mdash;</p>
+
+<p>"It may seem to some persons but folly, and to others but mere
+boasting, to point to this young man, as any fruit of, or recompense
+for, the costly and calamitous Arctic expeditions. But others may not
+think it all in vain, if thereby one soul has been saved, and an
+example left to a few young men, of thankfulness and kindness to men,
+duty and devotion towards God. Such was Erasmus Augustine Kallihirua,
+once a poor benighted Esquimaux, but brought out of darkness into the
+marvellous light of the Gospel, to be a pattern to some, who, with
+much greater advantages, are far inferior in the best graces of the
+Christian."</p>
+
+<h4>Conclusion</h4>
+<span class="right"><a class="contents" href="#Page_5">[Go to Table of Contents]</a></span>
+<br /><p>All that has been written will tend to show that Kallihirua was held
+in much esteem and affection
+<span class="left"><a name="Page_60" id="Page_60">[Pg&nbsp;60]</a></span>
+by those who knew him, and that some tribute, (such as even this
+little memoir,) is due to the memory of one who was well called
+"Erasmus," or "beloved."</p>
+
+<p>This, however, is not the chief end which the author had in view in
+presenting an account of Kalli's short career among his adopted
+countrymen. He would fain convey, amidst other wholesome lessons, that
+of the uncertainty of life, and the necessity of working while it is
+day. When we reflect on the departure of one, whose face and figure
+still dwell in the minds of many of us, it would be wise to remember,
+that we ourselves are making for the same point of our journey, the
+concluding scene of this short existence, the end of our probation.
+How trifling and insignificant do all other events appear, compared
+with the close of the race, and the arrival at the looked-for goal!
+May God grant us grace to act constantly on this conviction, as to all
+our plans and prospects!</p>

+
+To protect the Project Gutenberg-tm mission of promoting the free
+distribution of electronic works, by using or distributing this work
+(or any other work associated in any way with the phrase "Project
+Gutenberg"), you agree to comply with all the terms of the Full Project
+Gutenberg-tm License (available with this file or online at

+
+
+Section 1. General Terms of Use and Redistributing Project Gutenberg-tm
+electronic works
+
+1.A. By reading or using any part of this Project Gutenberg-tm
+electronic work, you indicate that you have read, understand, agree to
+and accept all the terms of this license and intellectual property
+(trademark/copyright) agreement. If you do not agree to abide by all
+the terms of this agreement, you must cease using and return or destroy
+all copies of Project Gutenberg-tm electronic works in your possession.
+If you paid a fee for obtaining a copy of or access to a Project
+Gutenberg-tm electronic work and you do not agree to be bound by the
+terms of this agreement, you may obtain a refund from the person or
+entity to whom you paid the fee as set forth in paragraph 1.E.8.
+
+1.B. "Project Gutenberg" is a registered trademark. It may only be
+used on or associated in any way with an electronic work by people who
+agree to be bound by the terms of this agreement. There are a few
+things that you can do with most Project Gutenberg-tm electronic works
+even without complying with the full terms of this agreement. See
+paragraph 1.C below. There are a lot of things you can do with Project
+Gutenberg-tm electronic works if you follow the terms of this agreement
+and help preserve free future access to Project Gutenberg-tm electronic
+works. See paragraph 1.E below.
+
+1.C. The Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation ("the Foundation"
+or PGLAF), owns a compilation copyright in the collection of Project
+Gutenberg-tm electronic works. Nearly all the individual works in the
+collection are in the public domain in the United States. If an
+individual work is in the public domain in the United States and you are
+located in the United States, we do not claim a right to prevent you from
+copying, distributing, performing, displaying or creating derivative
+works based on the work as long as all references to Project Gutenberg
+are removed. Of course, we hope that you will support the Project
+Gutenberg-tm mission of promoting free access to electronic works by
+freely sharing Project Gutenberg-tm works in compliance with the terms of
+this agreement for keeping the Project Gutenberg-tm name associated with
+the work. You can easily comply with the terms of this agreement by
+keeping this work in the same format with its attached full Project
+Gutenberg-tm License when you share it without charge with others.
+
+1.D. The copyright laws of the place where you are located also govern
+what you can do with this work. Copyright laws in most countries are in
+a constant state of change. If you are outside the United States, check
+the laws of your country in addition to the terms of this agreement
+before downloading, copying, displaying, performing, distributing or
+creating derivative works based on this work or any other Project
+Gutenberg-tm work. The Foundation makes no representations concerning
+the copyright status of any work in any country outside the United
+States.
+
+1.E. Unless you have removed all references to Project Gutenberg:
+
+1.E.1. The following sentence, with active links to, or other immediate
+access to, the full Project Gutenberg-tm License must appear prominently
+whenever any copy of a Project Gutenberg-tm work (any work on which the
+phrase "Project Gutenberg" appears, or with which the phrase "Project
+Gutenberg" is associated) is accessed, displayed, performed, viewed,
+copied or distributed:
+
+This eBook is for the use of anyone anywhere at no cost and with
+almost no restrictions whatsoever. You may copy it, give it away or
+re-use it under the terms of the Project Gutenberg License included
+with this eBook or online at www.gutenberg.org
+
+1.E.2. If an individual Project Gutenberg-tm electronic work is derived
+from the public domain (does not contain a notice indicating that it is
+posted with permission of the copyright holder), the work can be copied
+and distributed to anyone in the United States without paying any fees
+or charges. If you are redistributing or providing access to a work
+with the phrase "Project Gutenberg" associated with or appearing on the
+work, you must comply either with the requirements of paragraphs 1.E.1
+through 1.E.7 or obtain permission for the use of the work and the
+Project Gutenberg-tm trademark as set forth in paragraphs 1.E.8 or
+1.E.9.
+
+1.E.3. If an individual Project Gutenberg-tm electronic work is posted
+with the permission of the copyright holder, your use and distribution
+must comply with both paragraphs 1.E.1 through 1.E.7 and any additional
+terms imposed by the copyright holder. Additional terms will be linked
+to the Project Gutenberg-tm License for all works posted with the
+permission of the copyright holder found at the beginning of this work.
+
+1.E.4. Do not unlink or detach or remove the full Project Gutenberg-tm
+License terms from this work, or any files containing a part of this
+work or any other work associated with Project Gutenberg-tm.
+
+1.E.5. Do not copy, display, perform, distribute or redistribute this
+electronic work, or any part of this electronic work, without
+prominently displaying the sentence set forth in paragraph 1.E.1 with
+active links or immediate access to the full terms of the Project
+Gutenberg-tm License.
+
+1.E.6. You may convert to and distribute this work in any binary,
+compressed, marked up, nonproprietary or proprietary form, including any
+word processing or hypertext form. However, if you provide access to or
+distribute copies of a Project Gutenberg-tm work in a format other than
+"Plain Vanilla ASCII" or other format used in the official version
+posted on the official Project Gutenberg-tm web site (www.gutenberg.org),
+you must, at no additional cost, fee or expense to the user, provide a
+copy, a means of exporting a copy, or a means of obtaining a copy upon
+request, of the work in its original "Plain Vanilla ASCII" or other
+form. Any alternate format must include the full Project Gutenberg-tm
+License as specified in paragraph 1.E.1.
+
+1.E.7. Do not charge a fee for access to, viewing, displaying,
+performing, copying or distributing any Project Gutenberg-tm works
+unless you comply with paragraph 1.E.8 or 1.E.9.
+
+1.E.8. You may charge a reasonable fee for copies of or providing
+access to or distributing Project Gutenberg-tm electronic works provided

+- You pay a royalty fee of 20% of the gross profits you derive from
+ the use of Project Gutenberg-tm works calculated using the method
+ you already use to calculate your applicable taxes. The fee is
+ owed to the owner of the Project Gutenberg-tm trademark, but he
+ has agreed to donate royalties under this paragraph to the
+ Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation. Royalty payments
+ must be paid within 60 days following each date on which you
+ prepare (or are legally required to prepare) your periodic tax
+ returns. Royalty payments should be clearly marked as such and
+ sent to the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation at the
+ address specified in Section 4, "Information about donations to
+ the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation."
+
+- You provide a full refund of any money paid by a user who notifies
+ you in writing (or by e-mail) within 30 days of receipt that s/he
+ does not agree to the terms of the full Project Gutenberg-tm
+ License. You must require such a user to return or
+ destroy all copies of the works possessed in a physical medium
+ and discontinue all use of and all access to other copies of
+ Project Gutenberg-tm works.
+
+- You provide, in accordance with paragraph 1.F.3, a full refund of any
+ money paid for a work or a replacement copy, if a defect in the
+ electronic work is discovered and reported to you within 90 days
+ of receipt of the work.
+
+- You comply with all other terms of this agreement for free
+ distribution of Project Gutenberg-tm works.
+
+1.E.9. If you wish to charge a fee or distribute a Project Gutenberg-tm

+
+1.F.
+
+1.F.1. Project Gutenberg volunteers and employees expend considerable
+effort to identify, do copyright research on, transcribe and proofread
+public domain works in creating the Project Gutenberg-tm
+collection. Despite these efforts, Project Gutenberg-tm electronic
+works, and the medium on which they may be stored, may contain
+"Defects," such as, but not limited to, incomplete, inaccurate or
+corrupt data, transcription errors, a copyright or other intellectual
+property infringement, a defective or damaged disk or other medium, a
+computer virus, or computer codes that damage or cannot be read by
+your equipment.
+
+1.F.2. LIMITED WARRANTY, DISCLAIMER OF DAMAGES - Except for the "Right
+of Replacement or Refund" described in paragraph 1.F.3, the Project
+Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation, the owner of the Project
+Gutenberg-tm trademark, and any other party distributing a Project
+Gutenberg-tm electronic work under this agreement, disclaim all
+liability to you for damages, costs and expenses, including legal
+fees. YOU AGREE THAT YOU HAVE NO REMEDIES FOR NEGLIGENCE, STRICT
+LIABILITY, BREACH OF WARRANTY OR BREACH OF CONTRACT EXCEPT THOSE
+PROVIDED IN PARAGRAPH F3. YOU AGREE THAT THE FOUNDATION, THE
+TRADEMARK OWNER, AND ANY DISTRIBUTOR UNDER THIS AGREEMENT WILL NOT BE
+LIABLE TO YOU FOR ACTUAL, DIRECT, INDIRECT, CONSEQUENTIAL, PUNITIVE OR
+INCIDENTAL DAMAGES EVEN IF YOU GIVE NOTICE OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH
+DAMAGE.
+
+1.F.3. LIMITED RIGHT OF REPLACEMENT OR REFUND - If you discover a
+defect in this electronic work within 90 days of receiving it, you can
+receive a refund of the money (if any) you paid for it by sending a
+written explanation to the person you received the work from. If you
+received the work on a physical medium, you must return the medium with
+your written explanation. The person or entity that provided you with
+the defective work may elect to provide a replacement copy in lieu of a
+refund. If you received the work electronically, the person or entity
+providing it to you may choose to give you a second opportunity to
+receive the work electronically in lieu of a refund. If the second copy
+is also defective, you may demand a refund in writing without further
+opportunities to fix the problem.
+
+1.F.4. Except for the limited right of replacement or refund set forth
+in paragraph 1.F.3, this work is provided to you 'AS-IS,' WITH NO OTHER
+WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO
+WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTIBILITY OR FITNESS FOR ANY PURPOSE.
+
+1.F.5. Some states do not allow disclaimers of certain implied
+warranties or the exclusion or limitation of certain types of damages.
+If any disclaimer or limitation set forth in this agreement violates the
+law of the state applicable to this agreement, the agreement shall be
+interpreted to make the maximum disclaimer or limitation permitted by
+the applicable state law. The invalidity or unenforceability of any
+provision of this agreement shall not void the remaining provisions.
+
+1.F.6. INDEMNITY - You agree to indemnify and hold the Foundation, the
+trademark owner, any agent or employee of the Foundation, anyone
+providing copies of Project Gutenberg-tm electronic works in accordance
+with this agreement, and any volunteers associated with the production,
+promotion and distribution of Project Gutenberg-tm electronic works,
+harmless from all liability, costs and expenses, including legal fees,
+that arise directly or indirectly from any of the following which you do
+or cause to occur: (a) distribution of this or any Project Gutenberg-tm
+work, (b) alteration, modification, or additions or deletions to any
+Project Gutenberg-tm work, and (c) any Defect you cause.
+
+
+Section 2. Information about the Mission of Project Gutenberg-tm
+
+Project Gutenberg-tm is synonymous with the free distribution of
+electronic works in formats readable by the widest variety of computers
+including obsolete, old, middle-aged and new computers. It exists
+because of the efforts of hundreds of volunteers and donations from
+people in all walks of life.
+
+Volunteers and financial support to provide volunteers with the
+assistance they need, is critical to reaching Project Gutenberg-tm's
+goals and ensuring that the Project Gutenberg-tm collection will
+remain freely available for generations to come. In 2001, the Project
+Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a secure
+and permanent future for Project Gutenberg-tm and future generations.
+To learn more about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation
+and how your efforts and donations can help, see Sections 3 and 4
+and the Foundation web page at http://www.gutenberg.org/fundraising/pglaf.
+
+
+Section 3. Information about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive
+Foundation
+
+The Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation is a non profit
+501(c)(3) educational corporation organized under the laws of the
+state of Mississippi and granted tax exempt status by the Internal
+Revenue Service. The Foundation's EIN or federal tax identification
+number is 64-6221541. Contributions to the Project Gutenberg
+Literary Archive Foundation are tax deductible to the full extent
+permitted by U.S. federal laws and your state's laws.

+
+Section 4. Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg
+Literary Archive Foundation
+
+Project Gutenberg-tm depends upon and cannot survive without wide
+spread public support and donations to carry out its mission of
+increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be
+freely distributed in machine readable form accessible by the widest
+array of equipment including outdated equipment. Many small donations
+($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt
+status with the IRS.
+
+The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating
+charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United
+States. Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a
+considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up
+with these requirements. We do not solicit donations in locations
+where we have not received written confirmation of compliance. To
+SEND DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any
+particular state visit http://www.gutenberg.org/fundraising/pglaf
+
+While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we
+have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition
+against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who
+approach us with offers to donate.
+
+International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make
+any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from
+outside the United States. U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff.
+
+Please check the Project Gutenberg Web pages for current donation
+methods and addresses. Donations are accepted in a number of other
+ways including checks, online payments and credit card donations.
+To donate, please visit: http://www.gutenberg.org/fundraising/donate
+
+
+Section 5. General Information About Project Gutenberg-tm electronic
+works.
+
+Professor Michael S. Hart is the originator of the Project Gutenberg-tm
+concept of a library of electronic works that could be freely shared
+with anyone. For thirty years, he produced and distributed Project
+Gutenberg-tm eBooks with only a loose network of volunteer support.
+
+Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks are often created from several printed
+editions, all of which are confirmed as Public Domain in the U.S.
+unless a copyright notice is included. Thus, we do not necessarily
+keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper edition.
+
+Each eBook is in a subdirectory of the same number as the eBook's
+eBook number, often in several formats including plain vanilla ASCII,
+compressed (zipped), HTML and others.
+
+Corrected EDITIONS of our eBooks replace the old file and take over
+the old filename and etext number. The replaced older file is renamed.
+VERSIONS based on separate sources are treated as new eBooks receiving
+new filenames and etext numbers.
+
+Most people start at our Web site which has the main PG search facility:
+
+<a href="http://www.gutenberg.org">http://www.gutenberg.org</a>
+
+This Web site includes information about Project Gutenberg-tm,
+including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary
+Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how to
+subscribe to our email newsletter to hear about new eBooks.
+
+EBooks posted prior to November 2003, with eBook numbers BELOW #10000,
+are filed in directories based on their release date. If you want to
+download any of these eBooks directly, rather than using the regular
+search system you may utilize the following addresses and just
+download by the etext year.
+
+<a href="http://www.gutenberg.org/dirs/etext06/">http://www.gutenberg.org/dirs/etext06/</a>
+
+ (Or /etext 05, 04, 03, 02, 01, 00, 99,
+ 98, 97, 96, 95, 94, 93, 92, 92, 91 or 90)
+
+EBooks posted since November 2003, with etext numbers OVER #10000, are
+filed in a different way. The year of a release date is no longer part
+of the directory path. The path is based on the etext number (which is
+identical to the filename). The path to the file is made up of single
+digits corresponding to all but the last digit in the filename. For
+example an eBook of filename 10234 would be found at:
+
+http://www.gutenberg.org/dirs/1/0/2/3/10234
+
+or filename 24689 would be found at:
+http://www.gutenberg.org/dirs/2/4/6/8/24689
+
+An alternative method of locating eBooks:
+<a href="http://www.gutenberg.org/dirs/GUTINDEX.ALL">http://www.gutenberg.org/dirs/GUTINDEX.ALL</a>

+KALLIHIRUA THE ESQUIMAUX.
+
+
+Kallihirua, notwithstanding the disadvantages of person (for he was
+plain, and short of stature, and _looked_ what he was,--an Esquimaux),
+excited a feeling of interest and regard in those who were acquainted
+with his history, and who knew his docile mind, and the sweetness of
+his disposition.
+
+Compliance with the precept in the Old Testament, "Love ye the
+stranger[1]," becomes a delight as well as a duty in such an instance
+as that about to be recorded, especially when we consider the
+affecting injunction conveyed in the Epistle to the Hebrews, "Be not
+forgetful to entertain strangers, for thereby some have entertained
+angels unawares[2]."
+
+[Footnote 1: Deut. x 18.]
+
+[Footnote 2: Heb. xiii 2.]
+
+
+
+
+Her Majesty's Ship "Assistance"
+
+
+Erasmus Augustine York, whose native name was Kallihirua, was brought
+to England on board Her Majesty's ship "Assistance," Captain Erasmus
+Ommanney, in 1851. Captain Ommanney was second in command of the
+expedition under the orders of Captain Horatio Austin, C.B., which was
+dispatched in May, 1850, in search of the missing vessels of Sir John
+Franklin, the "Erebus" and "Terror". Franklin had quitted England on his
+perilous and fatal enterprise in May, 1845.
+
+Much interest was attached to the young Esquimaux, who was considered
+to be about sixteen years of age in August, 1850. He was one of a
+tribe inhabiting the country in the vicinity of Wolstenholme Sound, at
+the head of Baffin's Bay, in 76 deg. 3' north latitude, the nearest
+residents to the North Pole of any human beings known to exist on the
+globe. He was the only person ever brought to this country from so
+high a northern latitude. His tribe was met with by the late Sir John
+Ross, during his voyage in 1818, and was by him called the Arctic
+Highlanders.
+
+
+
+
+Cape York
+
+
+It appears that, when the expedition under Captain Austin's command
+was passing Cape York, in August, 1850, after its release from the ice
+in Melville Bay, natives were seen from the "Assistance".
+Captain Ommanney went with the "Intrepid" (one of the vessels
+comprising the expedition) to communicate with them, when it was
+ascertained that H.M.S., "North Star," had passed the winter in the
+neighbourhood. The fate of this vessel was then a matter of anxiety,
+as by her instructions she had been cautioned to avoid passing the
+winter in those regions. The tribe thus discovered consisted of only
+three families, residing in their summer huts at Cape York. As no
+steamer had ever before found its way to these seas, it was
+interesting to watch the impression upon the singular beings now
+visited, when they descended into the engine-room. The large furnaces
+and machinery astonished them. The latter, on being put in motion,
+made them take to their heels with fright, and they ran out of the
+engine-room on deck as fast as they could.
+
+
+
+
+Kallihirua on board the "Assistance"
+
+
+It was after this first interview that the report was raised of the
+massacre of two ships' crews in 1846. Captain Ommanney, accompanied by
+Captain Penny, with his interpreter, immediately returned to Cape
+York, and had a long interview with the natives. They most
+emphatically denied the whole statement, adding, that no ship had
+ever been on their coasts except the "North Star," and passing
+whalers. Then it was, that Kallihirua consented to show Captain
+Ommanney where the "North Star" had wintered, and to join the ship,
+for the purpose of being useful as an interpreter, in the event of
+their meeting with any natives during the search for the missing
+expedition under Sir John Franklin. Parting (for awhile, as he
+supposed) with his immediate relatives, and with the only people whom
+he knew on earth, he threw himself into the hands of strangers in
+perfect confidence. Having arrived on board the "Assistance," he put
+off his rough native costume, submitted to the process of a good
+washing, and, being soon clad in ordinary European clothing, which was
+cheerfully contributed by the officers, the young Esquimaux with much
+intelligence performed the duty of pilot to the place where the "North
+Star" had wintered.
+
+
+
+
+The Esquimaux Graves
+
+
+On entering Wolstenholme Sound[3], Kallihirua, or, as he was
+familiarly called, KALLI, directed Captain Ommanney and the officers
+to the late winter-station of his tribe, the spot having been
+abandoned in consequence of some epidemic, probably influenza, which
+had carried off several persons. On entering the huts, a most
+distressing sight presented itself. A heap of dead bodies, about
+seven, in a state of decomposition, lay, one over the other, clad in
+their skin-clothing, as if suddenly cut off by the hand of death. The
+survivors, from fear of infection, had left the remains of their
+relatives unburied. It was an affecting scene in such a remote and
+desolate region, separated from all communication with the human race.
+Near the huts was the burial-ground, with several well-formed graves
+of heaps of stones. On one lay a spear, which one of the officers of
+the "Assistance" took up, to bring away. Some of the crew were
+examining the graves to see whether they contained any of our missing
+countrymen. Seeing this, Kalli ran up to the officer, and, with tears
+and entreaties, as well as he could make himself understood, begged
+him and the men to desist from the work of desecration.
+

+
+
+
+
+Kallihirua's Family
+
+
+Poor Kalli's lamentations were quite heartrending. His feelings were,
+of course, respected, the graves were at once built up again, and the
+spear replaced. Captain Ommanney learnt afterwards from Kalli, that
+it was his father's grave, over which the spear had been placed by
+friends of the deceased. They have a tradition that in a future state
+the means of hunting are still required, and, because in this world
+the search of food is the chief object of life, the hunting-lance is
+deposited on the grave.
+
+The young stranger subsequently lived on board the "Assistance". He
+was placed under the care of the serjeant of Marines, who instructed
+Kalli in the rudiments of reading and writing, and to whom he became
+much attached. By his amiable disposition he made himself welcome and
+agreeable to all the expedition, and, as, in consequence of the state
+of the ice, no opportunity was offered of landing him on his native
+shores, on the return of the vessel past York Inlet, he was brought to
+England. The leaders of the expedition conferred the surname of York
+upon him, from the locality in which he was found. To this the name of
+Erasmus was prefixed, after that of the gallant Captain Ommanney.
+
+
+
+
+Lines on "Kallihirua in the Ship"
+
+
+Kalli was a twin. His father, whose grave has been mentioned, had been
+dead for some years, but he had a mother living, of whom he often
+spoke with duty and affection. His father's name was Kirshung-oak. His
+mother's Sa-toor-ney. He had two sisters living with their mother. A
+touching circumstance, connected with his first introduction to our
+countrymen, has been adverted to, which gave rise to the following
+lines by the writer of this memoir. They were published in the "Gospel
+Missionary," in the year of the arrival of Kallihirua, and are
+supposed to be spoken by a British sailor on board the "Assistance"--
+
+
+KALLI IN THE SHIP
+
+A frost, like iron, held the air,
+ A calm was on the sea,
+But fields of ice were spreading there,
+ And closing on our lee.
+
+Our ship half bound, as if aground,
+ Was scarcely seen to go.
+All hands on deck were gather'd round
+ The little ESKIMAUX.
+
+For he had come amongst our crew,
+ A week or so before,
+And now we knew not what to do
+ To put him safe ashore.
+
+Poor lad, he strain'd his eyes in vain,
+ Till tears began to come,
+And tried if he could see again
+ His mother and his home.
+
+The Captain then saw through his glass
+ The Inlet, and the Bay,
+But floes of ice, as green as grass,
+ And icebergs block'd the way.
+
+"Up with the sail!--the wind's awake!"
+ Hark to the Captain's call,
+"I see, my boys, we shall not make
+ York Inlet, after all."
+
+We look'd upon the swarthy lad,
+ Then look'd upon each other,
+And all were sure that he was sad
+ With thinking of his mother.
+
+We cheer'd him up, and soon he grew
+ So useful and so kind,
+The crew were glad, and Kalli too,
+ He was not left behind.
+
+He learn'd to make the best of it,
+ And now, by time and care,
+They tell us he can read a bit,
+ And say an easy prayer.
+
+O Kalli, fail not, day by day,
+ To kneel to God above;
+Then He will hear you when you pray,
+ And guard you with his love.
+
+Go on, my friend, in years and grace,
+ Your precious time employ,
+And you will pass, in wisdom's race,
+ The idle English boy.
+
+Nay, if you learn and practise too
+ The lessons of your youth,
+Some heathen tribes may gain from you
+ The light of Gospel truth.
+
+
+
+
+Description of the Esquimaux
+
+
+It may here be interesting to say a few words respecting the people
+who inhabit the gloomy abodes whence Kallihirua came, and where he had
+passed the greater part of his life.
+
+[Illustration: ENTRANCE TO A SNOW-HUT]
+
+
+
+
+Admiral Beechey's Account
+
+
+"The characteristic features of the Esquimaux," says Admiral Beechey,
+"are large fat round faces, high cheek-bones, small hazel eyes,
+eyebrows slanting like the Chinese, and wide mouths." They are
+generally under five feet high, and have brown complexions. Beechey,
+in his Narrative of a Voyage to Behring's Strait, &c., in H.M.S.
+"Blossom," gave a curious and particular description of the habits and
+customs of the Esquimaux, their wretched hovels, or "yourts,"
+snow-dwellings, and underground huts, and the general want of
+cleanliness in their persons and dwellings.
+
+Speaking of a tribe which he visited, he says, "We found them very
+honest, extremely good-natured and friendly. Their tents were
+constructed of skins, loosely stretched over a few spars of
+drift-wood, and were neither wind nor water tight. The tents were, as
+usual, filthy, but suitable to the taste of their inhabitants, who no
+doubt saw nothing in them that was revolting. The natives testified
+much pleasure at our visit, and placed before us several dishes,
+amongst which were two of their choicest,--the entrails of a fine
+seal, and a bowl of coagulated blood. But desirous as we were to
+oblige them, there was not one of our party that could be induced to
+partake of their hospitality. Seeing our reluctance, they tried us
+with another dish, consisting of the raw flesh of the narwhal, nicely
+cut into lumps, with an equal distribution of black and white fat, but
+they were not more successful here than at first."
+
+
+
+
+The Seal
+
+
+The seal's flesh supplies the natives with their most palatable and
+substantial food, which however has a fishy flavour, as the creatures
+feed chiefly on fish. Seals are sometimes taken on land, when
+surprised basking in the sun, with their young. As soon as they are
+alarmed by the sight of their enemies, they scuttle away, and make for
+the sea[4]. It is on the great deep that the Esquimaux, driven by
+hunger, chiefly seeks his precarious food. In his light canoe, which
+is made of seal-skins stretched over a slight framework of wood, he
+hunts, in all weathers, for his prey, especially for the much-prized
+Narwhal.
+
+There, tumbling in their seal-skin boat,
+Fearless, the hungry fishers float,
+And from the teeming seas supply
+The food their niggard plains deny.
+
+[Footnote 4: See ZOOLOGICAL SKETCHES, _Common Seal_. Published by the
+Society for Promoting Christian Knowledge.]
+
+
+
+
+The Narwhal
+
+
+[Illustration: ESQUIMAUX STRIKING A NARWHAL]
+
+The same intrepid boldness is shown in their chase of the reindeer,
+the bear, and the fox. Over the boundless deserts of snow they are
+borne rapidly along by their faithful dogs, which are harnessed to a
+sledge, six or seven to the team, and which scamper away, often in
+seeming confusion, but with a precision of aim and object which is
+perfectly surprising. No country presents a finer specimen of that
+honest, affectionate, much-enduring creature, the dog. Kindness to
+animals is always praiseworthy, and to the honour of the Esquimaux
+women it must be said, that they are remarked for their humane
+treatment of these dogs. They take care of them when they are ill, and
+use them better than the men do. Still under blows and hard usage the
+dogs are faithful, and willing to labour.
+
+
+
+
+Sir W. Edward Parry's Account
+
+
+The Esquimaux sometimes use slabs of ice for the walls of their huts,
+cementing them together with snow and water. Kennels for their dogs
+are also made of the same material. The late Admiral Sir W. Edward
+Parry, in the course of a voyage commenced in May, 1821, the chief
+object of which was the discovery of the North-West passage, availed
+himself of a winter's imprisonment in the ice, to observe and record
+the ways and manners of the Esquimaux, whose guest he was. His account
+is on the whole satisfactory. "I can safely affirm," said he, "that,
+whilst thus lodged beneath their roof, I know no people whom I would
+more confidently trust, as respects either my person or my property,
+than the Esquimaux."
+
+He also described their domestic character. The affection of the
+parents towards their children showed itself in a thousand ways, and
+the children on their part have so much gentleness and docility as to
+render any kind of chastisement unnecessary. Even from their earliest
+infancy, they are said to possess that quietness of disposition,
+gentleness of demeanour, and uncommon evenness of temper, for which in
+more mature age they are for the most part distinguished. Disobedience
+is scarcely ever known; a word or even a look from a parent is enough.
+
+These traits, added to industry and endurance of various kinds of
+difficulty, form the fair side of the picture, such as that amiable
+and distinguished officer was fond of presenting. The exhibition of
+these features of character was probably called forth, in a great
+degree, by his own kindness and good management, whilst living among
+them.
+
+
+
+
+Need of Christian Instruction
+
+
+But doubtless there are other and less favourable points of view in
+which these people must be sometimes considered. At all events, it is
+sad to learn, from the silence of some travellers, and the actual
+statements of others, that the Esquimaux do not appear to have any
+idea of the existence of a Supreme Being, or to hold any notion of
+religion. Separated from the whole civilized world, and frequently
+finding it a struggle to live, even with the help of their faithful
+dogs, they are objects of pity and concern, rather than of sanguine
+hope and expectation to the Christian mind. But were an opportunity to
+occur of carrying the Gospel to their snow-clad land, there is little
+doubt that the remark of Parry, applied to an individual of one of
+their tribes, might be used of all: "On dispositions thus naturally
+charitable, what might not Christian education, and Christian
+principles effect?"
+
+
+
+
+Kallihirua's Tribe
+
+
+Certainly, the instance now before the reader affords a good
+illustration of this view of the Esquimaux character. It is Captain
+Ommanney's opinion that Kallihirua's tribe may be regarded as a
+remnant of the pure race which, no doubt, in ages past migrated from
+Asia along the coasts of the Parry Group of Islands and Barrow's
+Straits. The features, and formation of skull, bespeak Tartar
+extraction. "Their isolated position," he adds, "being far north of
+the Danish settlements in Greenland, and far removed from the American
+continent, has kept them uncontaminated with any of the various mixed
+breeds of which the Esquimaux in those regions must be composed."
+
+
+
+
+Kallihirua in England
+
+
+Captain Ommanney, soon after his arrival in England, brought young
+Kallihirua to the Society for Promoting Christian Knowledge. At that
+time he could only speak a few words, such as "Ship," "Sea," "Very
+sick;" "England, things very nice," "Captain very good". From his
+language and gesture it was gathered, that he had suffered much from
+sea-sickness on the voyage; that he had been treated with the utmost
+care and kindness on board, and that he was highly pleased with
+English fare, and with the reception which he had met with in this
+country.
+
+His manners were so gentle, and even polite, without any seeming
+effort, as to excite astonishment in those who knew how short a time
+he had enjoyed the advantages of education. It was clear that great
+pains had been taken with him on board the "Assistance," where his
+great study had been to adapt himself to the habits and manners of
+those among whom his lot was so singularly cast. "In this," says
+Captain Ommanney, "he succeeded; for people were surprised at his good
+address, when he reached England."
+
+
+
+
+His Fondness for Prints and Drawings
+
+
+He was always much pleased with the company of young people, and
+appeared quite at home with them. Some books and prints were placed in
+the hands of the youth, and he expressed the greatest delight in
+seeing views of ships in the ice, and the figure of an Esquimaux
+watching for a seal. After gazing for a few moments at the latter, he
+uttered a cry of pleasure, and said, "This one of my people!" It
+seemed as if, for the time, he had been carried back to his own land,
+which, however homely, was once his home. Had any proof been wanting
+of the faithfulness of the representation, his hearty and joyous
+approval of it would have afforded sufficient evidence of its
+accuracy.
+
+The reader shall see the engraving of the lonely seal-hunter which so
+much pleased poor Kalli.
+
+
+
+
+Seal Hunter
+
+[Illustration: Seal Hunter]
+
+
+In this situation, we are told, a man will sit quietly for ten or
+twelve hours together, at a temperature of thirty or forty degrees
+below zero, watching for the opportunity of killing and taking the
+seal, which is supposed to be at work making its hole beneath in the
+ice. The Esquimaux, partly sheltered from the "winter's wind," and
+fast-falling snow, by a snow-wall, has got his spear and lines ready,
+and he has tied his knees together, to prevent his disturbing the seal
+by making the slightest noise.
+
+
+
+
+Sights in England
+
+
+Kalli, whilst in London, on a visit to the author, was taken to the
+British Museum. With some of the objects there he was much gratified.
+The antiquities, sculpture, and specimens of art and science, had not
+such charms in his sight as had the life-like forms of stuffed animals
+in that great national collection. With the seals, reindeer, and a
+gigantic walrus, with bright glass eyes, he was especially struck and
+amused, lingering for some time in the attractive apartment which
+contained them.
+
+He had now and then much to bear from rudeness and incivility on the
+part of some thoughtless persons, who derided his personal appearance,
+though they were not successful in putting him out of temper. The
+author recollects an instance of this in a street in London. He was
+walking with Kalli, when two young men, who ought to have known
+better, stared at the youth in passing, and laughed in his face: then
+presently turning round, they said, as they pointed at him, "There
+goes a Chinese!" He merely looked up, smiling, as if at their
+ignorance, and want of proper feeling.
+
+It has been observed of the people of his nation, that they evince
+little or no surprise or excitement at such things as occasion
+admiration in others. When Kalli first came up the river Thames with
+Captain Ommanney, and travelled from Woolwich by the railway, thence
+proceeding through the wonderful thoroughfare from London Bridge to
+the West End of the town, passing St. Paul's Cathedral, and Charing
+Cross, he merely said, _It was all very good_.
+
+"I took him with me," said the Captain, "to the Great Exhibition, the
+Crystal Palace, in Hyde Park. He beheld all the treasures around him
+with great coolness, and only expressed his wonder at the vast
+multitude of people."
+
+
+
+
+Great Exhibition of 1851
+
+
+This is natural enough. Many of our readers may recall the feelings of
+astonishment with which they viewed that large assemblage. On one of
+the shilling days, in October, 1851, ninety-two thousand human beings
+were collected together in the Crystal Palace at one time[5]. The
+force of contrast could perhaps go no further than in this instance.
+A young stranger who, in his own country, in a space of hundreds of
+miles around him, had only three families (probably twelve persons) to
+count, makes one of a multitude of more than ninety thousand of his
+fellow-creatures, in a building of glass, covering only eighteen acres
+of ground!
+
+[Footnote 5: This was the case on Tuesday, Oct. 7, 1851. The total
+number of visitors on that day alone was 109,915.]
+
+He was taken to see the Horse Guards' Stables. On seeing a trooper
+mount his charger, (both being fully accoutred,) Kalli was puzzled. He
+could not account for the perfect order and discipline of the animal,
+and the mutual fitness of the man and his horse, the one for the
+other.
+
+
+
+
+St. Augustine's College
+
+
+In November, 1851, Kallihirua was placed, by direction of the Lords of
+the Admiralty, at the suggestion of the Society for the Propagation of
+the Gospel, in the Missionary College of St. Augustine's, at
+Canterbury. This college, built on the site of the ancient monastery
+of St. Augustine, was established in 1848, for the reception of
+students intended for the work of the sacred Ministry in the colonies
+and dependencies of the British Empire, as well as among the heathen.
+The College, to which the Queen gave a charter of incorporation, owes
+its origin chiefly to the munificence of A. J. B. Beresford Hope,
+Esq., who purchased the ground, and gave the site. The College Chapel
+was consecrated on the morning of St. Peter's Day, June 29th, 1848,
+when seven prelates, with the Archbishop of Canterbury at their head,
+were present.
+
+
+
+
+College Studies
+
+
+Kallihirua remained a student of the College, attending to the
+instruction given him, and conducting himself well and properly in all
+respects. Under the kind auspices of the Rev. H. Bailey, the learned
+and judicious Warden of the College, who took the greatest interest in
+him, he availed himself, as far as his powers admitted, of the
+advantages of the institution. He appeared rightly to understand and
+value the blessings of education in a civilized community, and
+received with reverence the simple and saving truths of the Gospel. It
+was hoped, that, should he willingly and intelligently embrace the
+Christian faith, he might at no distant period convey the "glad
+tidings of good things" as a missionary or catechist to his own
+benighted friends and countrymen.
+
+In September, 1852, the Warden, in a letter, informed the author, that
+Kallihirua had been in good health all the summer. "We consider him,"
+said he, "a youth of intelligence, and quick observation. His progress
+in reading is necessarily slow, though he can manage words of four or
+five letters, he is fond of writing, and succeeds very well. He is
+very devout at prayers, and attentive to the religious instruction
+given him. I think he will one day be of essential use to a missionary
+in some northern region. He is grateful to you for your kind offer of
+books, and will write a letter of acknowledgment."
+
+
+
+
+His Reverence for Sacred Places
+
+
+It was but a short time after his settling at St. Augustine's College,
+that one of the students took him to see Canterbury Cathedral. The
+reverent regard with which he had been taught to look upon a church,
+as a place where prayer was made to God, manifested itself in his
+inquiry, when entering the nave, "Whether he might cough there?" This
+tendency to cough, arising from an ailment, the seeds of which had
+probably been sown long before, was often observable; and he was very
+susceptible of cold.
+
+
+
+
+Illness from Changes in the Weather
+
+
+In the spring of 1853 he suffered much from the variableness of the
+season. The mode in which he described his state to a friend is very
+simple and affecting. The original letter, which was entirely his own,
+both in composition and handwriting, is here copied verbatim. It
+commences with his signature:--
+
+"E. YORK, St. Augustine's College. April, 1853.
+
+"My dear Sir,
+
+ "I am very glad to tell, How do you do, Sir? I been
+ England, long time none very well. Long time none
+ very well. Very bad weather. I know very well, very
+ bad cough. I very sorry, very bad weather,
+ dreadful. Country very difference. Another day
+ cold. Another day wet, I miserable.
+
+ "Another summer come. Very glad. Great many trees.
+ Many wood. Summer beautiful, country Canterbury."
+
+Should any reader be disposed to look with the smile of a critic on
+this humble but genuine effort, let him bear in mind the difficulties
+which poor _English_ adults have to encounter in learning to read and
+write; and then let him judge of the obstacles in the way of one whose
+existence had been spent with his native tribe, on fields of ice, and
+in dark snow-huts.
+
+In all attacks of illness he was attended with assiduous kindness by
+Mr. Hallowes, of Canterbury, the skilful surgeon employed by the
+College, who showed much hospitality to Kalli. One of Mr. Hallowes'
+family circle on Christmas-day was always the good-humoured
+broad-faced Esquimaux. At their juvenile parties, the youth joined
+cheerfully in the sports of the children, and he sometimes sung them
+some of the wild and plaintive airs peculiar to his tribe.
+
+It is believed that Kalli never omitted his morning and evening
+prayers by his bed-side, and his utterance was full of devout
+earnestness. Mr. Bailey remembers once travelling with him to Deal,
+and while in the railway carriage, the youth quietly took out of his
+pocket a little book, which was afterwards found to be a collection of
+texts for each day in the year. For some time he was reading
+thoughtfully the text for the day. No notice was taken of this to him;
+and as for himself, never perhaps was any one more free from the least
+approach to ostentation.
+
+
+
+
+Greenland Esquimaux Vocabulary
+
+
+In the year 1853, Kalli rendered essential Service in the preparation
+of a Greenland Esquimaux Vocabulary, for the use of the Arctic
+Expedition of that year. The work was printed by direction of the
+Lords of the Admiralty, with a short Preface acknowledging the
+advantage of his assistance. Captain Washington, R.N., Hydrographer of
+the Admiralty, says in the Preface, "Every word has now been revised
+from the lips of a native. In the Midsummer vacation in 1852
+Kallihirua passed some days with me, and we went partly over the
+Vocabulary. I found him intelligent, speaking English very fairly,
+docile and imitative, his great pleasure appearing to be a pencil and
+paper, with which he drew animals and ships. At the Christmas
+holidays, we revised more of the Vocabulary, &c."
+
+A member of the Expedition afterwards visited St. Augustine's College
+and stated that the Vocabulary had been found to be of much service.
+
+
+
+
+Visit to Kalli at College
+
+
+The writer of this Memoir well recollects the circumstances of a visit
+which he paid with his family to St. Augustine's College, Canterbury,
+on a bright day, in August, 1853, when (it being the vacation) only
+three students remained in residence. These were 1. Kallihirua, 2. a
+young Hindoo by name Mark Pitamber Paul, and 3. Lambert McKenzie, a
+youth of colour, a native of Africa, sent to the College by the Bishop
+of Guiana. Kalli, who was the only one of these personally known to
+the author, did not at first appear. He had strolled out to witness a
+cricket-match in a field near Canterbury, but Blunsom, the College
+porter, said that he had promised to return by two o'clock, and that
+he was very punctual.
+
+It is here due both to Blunsom and his wife, to say that they were
+most kind friends to Kalli, watching over him with the most thoughtful
+attention, and the tenderest care throughout.
+
+As the Cathedral clock struck two, Kalli entered the College-gates.
+With hair black as the raven's wing, and eyes sparkling with
+good-humour, he made his appearance; and soon showed a desire to do
+the honours of the College. His dress was neat, like that of a young
+English gentleman, and he had a gaiety of look and manner, but far
+removed from foppery of apparel or demeanour. With true
+politeness--that of the heart--he accompanied the visitors over the
+Library, the Chapel, the Common Hall and the Dormitories of the
+College; each student having a small bed-room and study to himself.
+
+
+
+
+His Amusements and Occupations
+
+
+Kalli took great pleasure in exhibiting the carpenter's shop, a
+spacious crypt below the Library. Attention was there called to the
+wooden frame of a small house, in the construction of which, it
+appeared, he had borne a part. He said, when asked, that he should
+most probably find the knowledge of carpentering valuable some day,
+and that he should like to teach his countrymen the many good and
+useful things which he had learned in his College. He spoke little,
+and was evidently conscious of his imperfect pronunciation, but in
+answer to a question on the subject, he said he hoped to tell his
+people about religion, and the truths of the Gospel which he had been
+taught in England.
+
+His amusements were of a quiet and innocent kind. He made small models
+of his country sledges, one of which, a very creditable performance,
+is in the Museum in the College Library, and a rough rustic chair, now
+in the College garden, is of his manufacture. He was fond of drawing
+ships, and figures of the Seal, the Walrus, the Reindeer, the
+Esquimaux Dog, and other objects familiar to him in the Arctic
+regions.
+
+[Illustration: WALRUS AND SEAL.]
+
+His sketches of animals and ships were very correct, and he used
+sometimes to draw them for the amusement of children.
+
+When on board the "Assistance," he made a good sketch of the coast
+line of the region which his tribe frequented, from Cape York to
+Smith's Sound.
+
+The use which he made of the needle must not be forgotten. For a year
+and a half, whilst at Canterbury, he went regularly for five hours a
+day to a tailor to learn the trade, and was found very handy with his
+needle. He proved to be of much use in the ordinary work of the trade.
+
+
+
+
+Baptism of Kallihirua
+
+
+We now come to an important event in the history of Kallihirua; his
+Baptism, which took place on Advent Sunday, Nov. 27th, 1853, in St.
+Martin's Church, near Canterbury. "The visitors present on the
+occasion," said an eye-witness[6], "were, the Rev. John Philip Gell
+(late Warden of Christ's College, Tasmania), accompanied by Mrs. Gell,
+daughter of the late Sir John Franklin; Captain Erasmus Ommanney, R.N.
+(who brought Kallihirua to England), and Mrs. Ommanney, Captain
+Washington, R.N., of the Admiralty, and the Rev. W. T. Bullock. The
+Rev. T. B. Murray, Secretary of the Society for Promoting Christian
+Knowledge, who had been invited, was, in consequence of engagements in
+London, unfortunately unable to be present".
+
+[Footnote 6: St. Augustine's Occasional Paper.]
+
+[Illustration: St. Martin's Church]
+
+"Towards three o'clock in the afternoon, small parties began to issue
+from the College gateway in the direction of St. Martin's,--that
+picturesque little church, looking from its calm hill-side over the
+broad Stour valley, and over the cathedral and the steeples of the
+town half emerging from the smoke. In the interior of this oldest of
+the English churches there is an ancient font, which stands upon the
+spot (if it be not the very font itself), where King Ethelbert, the
+firstfruits of the Anglo-Saxon race, was baptized more than twelve
+hundred and fifty years ago by Augustine.
+
+"In the enclosure round this font sat Kallihirua, and his 'chosen
+witnesses' Captain Ommanney, and the Subwarden, Mrs. Bailey, and Mrs.
+Gell. The remainder of the church was quite filled with an attentive
+and apparently deeply-interested congregation, many of them of the
+poorer class to whom Kalli is well known either by face (as indeed he
+could not well fail to be), or as the comrade of their children in the
+spelling-class at school.
+
+"After the Second Lesson, the Warden proceeded to the font, and the
+Baptismal Service commenced. Kallihirua, as an adult, made the
+responses for himself, and in a clear firm tone, which seemed to
+intimate that he had made his choice for once and for ever, that he
+had cast in his lot with us, and taken our people for his people, and
+our God for his God, and felt with an intelligent appreciation the
+privilege of that new brotherhood into which he was admitted.
+
+"May his admission within the pale of Christ's holy Church be, (as was
+the prayer of many, beyond the walls of St. Martin's, on that day,)
+both to himself and to many of his race, an event pregnant of eternal
+issues! 'May the fulness of God's blessing,' to use the words of one
+of our most valued friends, 'rest upon it, and make it the first
+streak of a clear and steady light, shining from St. Augustine's into
+the far North.' The Christian names added to his original Esquimaux
+name, were 'Erasmus,' after Captain Ommanney, and 'Augustine,' in
+remembrance of the College.
+
+"The service being concluded, an excellent sermon was preached by the
+Rev. J. P. Gell, on the text, Isaiah lxv. 1: 'I am sought of them that
+asked not for me; I am found of them that sought me not: I said,
+Behold me, behold me, unto a nation that was not called by my name.'
+Afterwards the same kind friend attended our Sunday evening meeting in
+the Warden's house, and gave us some interesting details of the
+missionary work (in which he had himself borne a part) in Van Diemen's
+Land. The drift of his remarks was to give encouragement to the
+principle of steady faithful persevering energy, undamped by early
+difficulties, and not impatient of the day of small things; and to
+show by convincing examples (especially that of Mr. Davis, a devoted
+missionary in that country) how such conduct is sure in the end to
+meet with a success of the soundest and most permanent kind, because
+founded on the spontaneous sympathy of the people, and on the
+blessings of the poor, 'not loud but deep.'
+
+"Kallihirua had received a very handsome present in the shape of a
+beautifully bound Bible and Prayer Book, as a baptismal gift from the
+Society for Promoting Christian Knowledge."
+
+It may be interesting to add, that the water used in the baptism was
+from the river Jordan, and that it had been brought from thence by
+Captain Ommanney himself.
+
+In the _Gospel Missionary_ for February, 1854, was a pleasing
+description of the Baptism of Kallihirua: and this was the sound and
+practical conclusion:--
+
+ "Before we conclude, we may, perhaps, express the hope that
+ our young friends will sometimes think kindly of their new
+ Christian brother, ERASMUS AUGUSTINE KALLIHIRUA, and that
+ they will pray that God will bless him, and make him to
+ advance more and more in the knowledge and the love of His
+ dear Son JESUS CHRIST. When they thus think of him who is now
+ made their own brother by baptism, and is thus brought into
+ the family of CHRIST'S people, let them learn to value the
+ good things which GOD has given _them_ in such rich
+ abundance. Let them be thankful that they were born in a
+ Christian country, in which they have been taught from
+ children to know the Holy Scriptures, which are able to make
+ them wise unto salvation through faith which is in CHRIST
+ JESUS."
+
+
+
+
+Stanzas by the Warden
+
+
+The following stanzas, written by the Warden on the occasion of the
+baptism, will be read with pleasure, especially by those who are aware
+how faithfully the amiable writer of them fulfilled his part in
+preparing Kallihirua, not only for the right performance of such
+duties as seemed to await him in life, but (what was far more
+important) for an early death.
+
+
+THE BAPTISM OF KALLIHIRUA
+
+"I WILL TAKE YOU ONE OF A CITY, AND TWO OF A FAMILY, AND I WILL BRING
+YOU TO ZION."--Jer. iii. 14.
+
+ Far through the icy bounds
+ Of Greenland's barren shore,
+ At duty's call, on mercy sent,
+ The brave are gone before.
+
+ Beyond the haunts of men
+ They urge their tedious way,
+ When lo! a wandering tribe appears
+ By yonder northern bay.
+
+ But who so wild, so lost
+ In ignorance and sin!
+ No God they know, no Saviour own,
+ Is there a soul to win?
+
+ Yes, in that heathen race
+ One heart at least is found
+ That yearns for better things, by grace
+ In unseen fetters bound.
+
+ Warm is the Christian's heart,
+ Outstretch'd the Christian's hand,
+ "Assistance" lends her friendly aid
+ To reach a Christian land.
+
+ In this our calm retreat
+ He finds a peaceful home,
+ Is taught such learning as is meet,
+ In store for years to come.
+
+ He learns to know and love
+ His Saviour and his God,
+ And now he is a brother dear,
+ By faith in Jesu's blood.
+
+ O gracious Spirit! hear
+ Our prayer with one accord;
+ And train this new-born Christian heart
+ In thy most holy Word.
+
+ Have pity on his race!
+ And bring them still to see
+ Their wretched state, and teach them all
+ The Father, Son, and Thee!
+
+ To God the Father, Son,
+ And Spirit, glory be,
+ Who call'd, and saved, and sanctifies,
+ The co-eternal Three!
+
+Some of these verses were sung in the College Chapel on the evening of
+Advent Sunday, 1853.
+
+
+
+
+Kalli at St. John's, Newfoundland
+
+
+The time having now arrived at which, according to the opinion of the
+Bishop of Newfoundland, and the Warden of St. Augustine's, the
+qualifications of Kallihirua might be turned to some account, as an
+aid to missionaries in their efforts among the Esquimaux of Labrador,
+he left England, in the autumn of the year 1855, for further training
+at St. John's, Newfoundland. This step was taken at the expense of the
+Admiralty, who agreed to allow him 25 pounds a year for three years.
+
+The following notice of his character appeared in the 'Occasional
+Paper,' published in St. Augustine's College at the time of his
+removal to Newfoundland. At every step of his short but remarkable
+course, such willing testimony always awaited him.
+
+"Kallihirua, whose name is known as widely as that of his College, has
+arrived at another crisis in his eventful history. Having resided more
+than three years in College, he has been transferred to the
+experienced care of the Bishop of Newfoundland, with the view to his
+probable usefulness among the Esquimaux of Labrador. If integrity of
+moral principle, gentleness of spirit, docility of manners,
+willingness to be useful, and true Christian politeness, are essential
+requisites in a Missionary, then is Kallihirua certain to fill his
+place well, if only the right place is found for him."
+
+Kalli arrived in St John's, Newfoundland, on the 2nd October, 1855,
+and, on the following day, wrote a letter to Captain Ommanney, telling
+him that he had suffered on the voyage from the motion of the vessel,
+which had caused severe headaches. He added, "St John's puts me in
+mind of my own country. I have already found a great number of kind
+friends, and feel so happy."
+
+He was immediately admitted into the College of the Theological
+Institution for further training, and it was the Bishop's intention to
+have taken him in the summer of 1856 in the Church-ship to the coast
+of Labrador, with the view particularly of comparing his language with
+that of the Esquimaux on the American continent, who are included
+under the government, and consequently in the diocese, of
+Newfoundland.
+
+That he was not unfitted for this task, appears from a passage in the
+preface to the Greenland-Esquimaux Vocabulary. Captain Washington
+observes: "On comparing the Labrador with the Greenland dialect of the
+Esquimaux, it was found that nearly one-half the words given by Mr.
+Platon were similar to the former. On going over the vocabulary with
+Kallihirua, generally speaking he recognized the Greenland word. When
+he did not do so, the Labrador was mentioned, which, in most cases, he
+caught at directly. These words have been added. There would thus
+appear to be even a greater degree of similarity between the Labrador
+and Greenland dialects than might have been expected, and it is
+evident that the Greenland dialect, as Mr. Platon states, is spoken by
+all the Esquimaux to the head of Baffin's Bay."
+
+Kalli had some conversation with a Moravian Missionary from Labrador.
+The language was in most respects similar, though there was evidently
+a difficulty in understanding each other.
+
+
+
+
+Death of Archdeacon Bridge
+
+
+It may be mentioned, as a circumstance of melancholy interest, that,
+besides Kallihirua, the late Venerable T. F. H. Bridge, Archdeacon of
+Newfoundland, was to have accompanied and assisted the Bishop in this
+voyage, which it was proposed should have extended to the Moravian
+settlement. Moravian Missions have been established in Greenland for
+more than a century. But the expedition contemplated by the Bishop
+was more particularly designed to open Sandwich and Esquimaux Bays to
+the much-needed Missionary.
+
+These projects it was determined, in the good providence of God, were
+not to be realized. Archdeacon Bridge was prematurely carried off, in
+the midst of his zealous and successful labours, at the end of
+February, 1856. "He worked himself to death!" said the Bishop. "His
+death was felt in the colony as a public loss."
+
+
+
+
+Intelligence from Newfoundland
+
+
+The author of this memoir had written to Kallihirua, whilst he was at
+St. Augustine's, and had received from him a letter shortly, and
+plainly expressed, which the Warden stated to have been composed and
+written by the youth himself, and which proved how anxious he was to
+do well that which was given him to do. The author afterwards often
+thought of the amiable Kalli, and was in hopes of soon hearing from
+him in his new abode in Newfoundland. But man proposeth, and God
+disposeth. A St. John's paper, _The Newfoundland Express_, taken up
+casually in July, 1856, conveyed the intelligence that Kallihirua had
+passed away from this busy anxious world to another, and, we humbly
+and reasonably hope, a better and happier.
+
+A melancholy interest generally attaches to the history of individuals
+dying in a foreign and strange land, far from friends and home. The
+separation from all they have known and loved is, in their case, so
+entire, the change of their circumstances, habits, and associations,
+so great, that such a dispensation specially appeals to the sympathy
+of all Christian hearts.
+
+
+
+
+Allusion to Prince Le Boo
+
+
+Feelings of this kind are excited by the narrative of the early death
+of Prince Le Boo, a youthful native of the Pelew Islands, who was
+brought over to this country in July, 1784, and who, in the
+spring-time of life, after little more than five months' stay in
+England, fell a victim, to the small pox. In the memoir of that young
+prince, who died at Rotherhithe, and was buried in the church-yard
+there, in December, 1784, there are some points of resemblance to the
+case under our notice. The natural and unforced politeness of the
+youth, his aptness at conforming, in all proper things, to the habits
+and customs of those to whose hospitality he was intrusted; his warm
+and single-hearted affection for such persons, in whatever station,
+as showed him kind offices, his desire for mental improvement; his
+resignation and submission in his last illness to the will of God,
+these are features which remind us of the subject of our present
+memoir. Many are the tears which have fallen over the story of the
+young and amiable Prince Le Boo.
+
+
+
+
+Accounts from St. John's
+
+
+But to resume the thread of the narrative respecting Kalli. During the
+winter of 1855 and 1856 he had suffered frequently from cough, and
+shown other signs of constitutional weakness. His cheerfulness,
+however, had seldom failed him; his readiness to please, and be
+pleased, to oblige, and be obliged, never. In letters which he sent to
+friends in England, he always spoke with gratitude of the kindness
+shown him, and of being very happy.
+
+
+
+
+Letter from Kalli
+
+
+The following letter to Mr. Blunsom, who, as it will have been seen,
+had treated him with constant kindness, and done him much good
+service, will be read with interest.
+
+"St John's College, Newfoundland,
+January 7, 1856.
+
+ "I received your kind letter by the December
+ mail, and am very sorry to hear of your illness. The
+ weather here is very cold, I feel it more than at
+ Cape York. I have begun to skate, and find it a
+ pleasant amusement. There is a lake a little
+ distance from the College, called, 'Quidi Vidi,' on
+ which we practise. The Bishop is very kind and good
+ to me. College here is not so large and fine a
+ place as St. Augustine's: nor are there so many
+ students. I hope that all my kind friends at
+ Canterbury are quite well. Please remember me
+ kindly to Mr. and Mrs. Gipps, and all at St.
+ Augustine's. With kind love to yourself,
+
+ "I remain, yours affectionately,
+
+ "KALLI."
+
+
+
+
+Kalli's Illness and Death
+
+
+With respect to the fatal attack under which he soon sunk, it has to
+be mentioned, that he had gone out to bathe with one of his
+fellow-students at St. John's, on Saturday, the 7th June. From
+continuing too long in the water, which was very cold, he caught a
+chill, and showed many symptoms of inflammation for some days. On
+Wednesday, good medical assistance was called in, but his constitution
+had received too violent a shock. The Surgeon had fears from the first
+that his patient would not recover. It has been observed by medical
+men, that Esquimaux have but little stamina, and generally fail under
+the first attack of serious illness. Kalli was kindly watched and
+assisted by the Rev. J. G. Mountain, and Mrs. Mountain, and his
+fellow-students. He got rapidly worse. On the Thursday he seemed
+utterly powerless, and could not lift up his arms, nor put them out of
+his bed. He was very restless during the greater part of Friday night.
+
+"Soon after ten o'clock on Saturday morning, June 14th," said the
+Bishop of Newfoundland, "his gentle soul departed. I saw him
+frequently during his illness (three times the last day), and he
+always assented most readily, when I reminded him of God's gracious
+goodness in visiting him; and that it would be better for him to
+depart, and be with Christ. It was remarkable that his English was
+more clear and distinct in his illness than I had ever known it; and
+though he said but very little, he seemed to understand better than
+ever before. The last seizure was so sudden and violent, that he did
+not articulate at all. He expired, whilst I was commending his soul to
+his faithful Creator and most merciful Saviour."
+
+He is stated to have died of "melanosis of the lungs," a disease in
+which the whole substance of the lungs turns completely black. It is
+very slow in its first advances, but fearfully rapid in its latter
+stages. The Bishop had the chest examined after death, and sent a copy
+of the Surgeon's report to the Warden of St. Augustine's.
+
+In a full communication, made to the Warden, the Bishop said, "The
+almost suddenness of our good gentle Kalli's removal makes it
+difficult to realize the fact that 'he is gone.' I still look for his
+familiar strange face among the students, wondering at his unwonted
+absence. He seemed quite identified with our little company. We all
+miss him greatly, but he has now entered on that perfect rest which he
+seemed made for, and is delivered from a troublesome, naughty world
+for which he was certainly not made."
+
+The Bishop also spoke of Kalli's _submission to those set over him;
+his kindness to all around him, and his attention to all his religious
+duties_.
+
+Many young persons, born and bred in our own country, and brought up
+from the cradle in the very midst of Christian instruction, may glean
+a valuable lesson from the character of this lamented Esquimaux
+Christian. They may ask themselves, with some feeling of self-reproof,
+whether they should have merited such praise from one so revered, and
+so well qualified to judge. "Perhaps," added Bishop Feild, "I was a
+little proud at being able to exhibit a far-off Esquimaux brought
+near, and among my own scholars."
+
+During Kalli's last illness, which, though short, was not without
+considerable suffering, the same spirit of resignation and
+thankfulness, which he had always shown, was evinced. "Mr. D---- very
+kind," "K---- very kind," "Mrs.---- very kind," "Sorry to give so much
+trouble," were expressions continually on his lips, as he was visited
+and assisted by his fellow-students, and other friends in succession.
+His gentle spirit departed in the presence of the Rev. Thomas Wood,
+the Rev. Principal of the College, and all his fellow-students.
+
+The Rev. J. F. Phelps, Vice-Principal of St. John's College,
+Newfoundland, who had been a fellow-student of Kalli's, at St.
+Augustine's, wrote thus, June 25, 1856, respecting him.
+
+"I have every reason to believe and hope that he has been translated
+to a better state, and that he now rests in his Saviour: for though
+he had not much knowledge, yet few indeed act up to their knowledge so
+well and consistently as he did to his. It must be a comfort to you,
+Sir, to be assured that in his last moments he was cared for, and
+attended by all members of the College here, the students constantly
+being with him, as well as Mr. and Mrs. Mountain and myself. He showed
+himself very grateful for all that was being done for him, and
+expressed great sorrow at giving so much trouble. He always spoke of
+his friends in England with great affection, and was delighted
+whenever he received letters from them, which he was always eager to
+answer. Altogether, his was a very amiable character, and we all felt
+his loss very much."
+
+In another letter from Mr. Phelps is the following passage:--
+
+"During his last illness, in his conversation with me, it was evident
+that he quite understood the principle on which we Christians ought to
+bear our sufferings, patiently, and even thankfully, because of the
+still greater sufferings which we deserve, and which our Divine
+Saviour bore for us. I was, I confess, surprised at the readiness
+with which he realized the truth and the force of this reasoning."
+
+
+
+
+Legacy to a Friend
+
+
+The author had often remarked the very grateful manner in which the
+youth acknowledged any kindness shown towards him. He spoke with the
+utmost affection of his dear friends, Captain Ommanney, Captain
+Austin, R.N., the Rev. the Warden of St. Augustine's College, and Mrs.
+Bailey. Mrs. Bailey, he said, taught him constantly his readings in
+the New Testament, heard him his hymns, and corrected his
+writing-exercises. The Rev. A. P. Moor, Sub-Warden of the College, was
+also very kind to him, and gained his regard.
+
+Of the moderate means placed at his disposal he was always properly
+careful, expending very little upon himself. He had a few pounds laid
+up in the Savings' Bank at Canterbury. This amount, together with his
+humble store of goods and chattels, consisting chiefly of the prints
+which had adorned his room, he left, by a kind of will, to his
+untiring and constant friend, Captain Ommanney, in token of gratitude
+and regard.
+
+
+
+
+Kalli's Funeral
+
+
+The remains of Kallihirua were borne to the grave by his
+fellow-students, and followed by the Vice-Principal of the College,
+and by the Bishop of Newfoundland, as chief mourner. The Burial
+Service in the church (St. Thomas's) was conducted by the Rev. Mr.
+Wood, and in the cemetery by the Rev. Mr. Mountain, the Principal of
+the College. The quiet solemnity of the service was in keeping with
+the life and death of the gentle Kalli.
+
+Mrs. Mountain, of St. John's, Newfoundland, in whose house he lived,
+and who had kindly assisted in instructing him, wrote as follows:--
+
+"It is in sincere sorrow and mourning that I write to inform you that
+we yesterday followed to the grave our poor Erasmus Kallihirua. He
+died after only a few days' illness, brought on by incautiously going
+out to bathe with one of our other students. On the following day,
+when he came to me to read, as usual, he complained of great pain in
+the chest and side, and so rapid was the inflammation, that the usual
+remedies were unavailing.
+
+"Poor fellow, he was as patient and gentle during his illness, as he
+always was when he was well and strong, and expressed perfect
+resignation to God's will, and much thankfulness to those who
+ministered to him. We all loved him for his unvarying kindness and
+gentleness, his submission to those set over him, and his willingness
+to serve all. I miss him so very much, not only in his daily lessons,
+but in his constant knock at our door, to know whether I had any thing
+for him to do in the garden, or a message in the town when he was
+going out for a walk.
+
+"He looked very nice, lying in his silver-white coffin, covered with
+flowers, and a bunch of lilies and wild pear-blossoms on his bosom. We
+trust that he was one of the blessed meek who shall inherit the earth.
+We were all with him when he breathed his last, the Bishop, and the
+Principal of St. John's College, commending his soul to his faithful
+Creator."
+
+
+
+
+Intended Memorial
+
+
+It is proposed to inscribe a record of Kalli, and of other deceased
+students of St. Augustine's College, on a tablet in the crypt under
+the College Chapel. A memorial stone will be erected over Kalli's
+grave in St. John's, Newfoundland.
+
+With reference to the recent decease of some hopeful students of St.
+Augustine's, who, after giving promise of much usefulness in the cause
+of missions, had been removed from this earthly scene, Mr. Phelps
+observed in a letter lately printed at the St. Augustine's College
+Press:--
+
+"The whole College is again reminded, that 'all flesh is grass,' and
+that our life 'is even a vapour that appeareth for a little time, and
+then vanisheth away.' Poor Kalli is no longer with us. He has been
+made fit for the Master's use, and has been taken back by Him who lent
+him to us."
+
+
+
+
+Practical Reflections
+
+
+The writer in the "Newfoundland Express" made the following practical
+reflections on Kalli's early death, which suggest serious though
+cheering thoughts:--
+
+"It may seem to some persons but folly, and to others but mere
+boasting, to point to this young man, as any fruit of, or recompense
+for, the costly and calamitous Arctic expeditions. But others may not
+think it all in vain, if thereby one soul has been saved, and an
+example left to a few young men, of thankfulness and kindness to men,
+duty and devotion towards God. Such was Erasmus Augustine Kallihirua,
+once a poor benighted Esquimaux, but brought out of darkness into the
+marvellous light of the Gospel, to be a pattern to some, who, with
+much greater advantages, are far inferior in the best graces of the
+Christian."
+
+
+
+
+Conclusion
+
+
+All that has been written will tend to show that Kallihirua was held
+in much esteem and affection by those who knew him, and that some
+tribute, (such as even this little memoir,) is due to the memory of
+one who was well called "Erasmus," or "beloved."
+
+This, however, is not the chief end which the author had in view in
+presenting an account of Kalli's short career among his adopted
+countrymen. He would fain convey, amidst other wholesome lessons, that
+of the uncertainty of life, and the necessity of working while it is
+day. When we reflect on the departure of one, whose face and figure
+still dwell in the minds of many of us, it would be wise to remember,
+that we ourselves are making for the same point of our journey, the
+concluding scene of this short existence, the end of our probation.
+How trifling and insignificant do all other events appear, compared
+with the close of the race, and the arrival at the looked-for goal!
+May God grant us grace to act constantly on this conviction, as to all
+our plans and prospects!

+Section 2. Information about the Mission of Project Gutenberg-tm
+
+Project Gutenberg-tm is synonymous with the free distribution of
+electronic works in formats readable by the widest variety of computers
+including obsolete, old, middle-aged and new computers. It exists
+because of the efforts of hundreds of volunteers and donations from
+people in all walks of life.
+
+Volunteers and financial support to provide volunteers with the
+assistance they need, is critical to reaching Project Gutenberg-tm's
+goals and ensuring that the Project Gutenberg-tm collection will
+remain freely available for generations to come. In 2001, the Project
+Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a secure
+and permanent future for Project Gutenberg-tm and future generations.

+and how your efforts and donations can help, see Sections 3 and 4

+Section 4. Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg
+Literary Archive Foundation
+
+Project Gutenberg-tm depends upon and cannot survive without wide
+spread public support and donations to carry out its mission of
+increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be
+freely distributed in machine readable form accessible by the widest
+array of equipment including outdated equipment. Many small donations
+($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt
+status with the IRS.
+
+The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating
+charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United
+States. Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a
+considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up
+with these requirements. We do not solicit donations in locations
+where we have not received written confirmation of compliance. To
+SEND DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any
+particular state visit https://www.gutenberg.org/fundraising/donate
+
+While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we
+have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition
+against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who
+approach us with offers to donate.
+
+International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make
+any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from
+outside the United States. U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff.
+
+Please check the Project Gutenberg Web pages for current donation
+methods and addresses. Donations are accepted in a number of other
+ways including checks, online payments and credit card donations.
+To donate, please visit:

+
+Section 5. General Information About Project Gutenberg-tm electronic
+works.
+
+Professor Michael S. Hart was the originator of the Project Gutenberg-tm
+concept of a library of electronic works that could be freely shared
+with anyone. For thirty years, he produced and distributed Project
+Gutenberg-tm eBooks with only a loose network of volunteer support.
+
+Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks are often created from several printed
+editions, all of which are confirmed as Public Domain in the U.S.
+unless a copyright notice is included. Thus, we do not necessarily
+keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper edition.
+
+Most people start at our Web site which has the main PG search facility:
+
+ https://www.gutenberg.org
+
+This Web site includes information about Project Gutenberg-tm,
+including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary
+Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how to
+subscribe to our email newsletter to hear about new eBooks.
