Coffin is destined to have an important
part in the lineage Of Pitcairners. There
are but seven family names among the
100 inhabitants. They are Young, Nc
Coy. Christian, Buffet. Warren, Butler
and Coffin. and only Coffin of the original
families now lives.
When the Pitcairn was ready to leave
the island. her captain desired man to
sail before the mast. None of the island
ers were willing to leave. but Brother
Coffin just longed for another trip to sea-
He consulted with the powers of the
island, and to his great delight he was
permitted to go as an able seaman in the
Pitcairn to Tahiti the general impression
being that he would return to Pitcairn
when the missionary ship made her next
call.
The Pitcairn went 70 Tahiti, and there
Brother Coffin bade her good-by. The
San Francisco brig Galilee was about to
leave for California and Coffin left with
her. On the brig was also a missionary
returning from Pitcairn. and he and
Brother Coffin frequently discussed the
pest and the future Coffin always as
sured his friend that it was his intention
to return to Pitcairn after he had spent
q goodly period among the enjoyments of
his native country, but the missionary
says 1t will not be surprising If Coffin
never goes back.
Coffin is now 60 years old. Over thirty
years ago he was a sailor on board one
of the United States vessels at the cap
ture of Fort Donelson in the Civil War
On this particular occasion Coffin was on
one of the river boats acting in conjunc-
ton with the land forces under General
Grant. He declares that he is entitled to
a considerable amount of prize money,
and that the matter was being adjudi-
Gated when he sailed on his last voyage
which ended so abruptly at Pitcairn. He
has now gone East to look up the record
and see If he be rich or poor In any
event, he insists that he will have no diff
ficulty in proving his right to a pension
