my work. May their prayers be heard. And

here ten days and will then proceed slowly. I
will move hence to Big Island, two

food for the men. Whateveryou have to say
to me- my ears are open, with good heart,
as it has always been toward you. There

eleventh morning from this shall move on.
All my white men are well, but left them all
behind except my servant William, who is
with me. HENRY NJ. STANLEY.
