ly require, that our supervision over the
islands should take. To abandon the is
laEis now would be to abandon them to
chaos, to humiliate ourselves and with
gross and wanton breach Of faith to turn
over the natives who have been friendly to
us to the tender mercies Of the insurgent
chiefs. We are not only giving order to the
islands, but We are already giving far
greater measure of liberty than they have

loving nations understand the word), we
would stay in the islands until we have
done honestly and fairly the work which
Providence has allotted US to do.
