The Pacific commercial advertiser. [volume] (Honolulu, Hawaiian Islands) 1885-1921, 1908-11-03

When the San Francisco newspapers
arrived on the Siberia yesterday Homo
lulu was confronted with the news of
the death of the Rev. Hiram Bingham,
the aged missionary Of Honolulu, known
to the Christian world as the great
missionary to the Gilbert Islands. The
dispatch was dated Baltimore, October
26, and stated that DR.. Bingham died
from an operation at the Johns Hopkins
hospital. No previous intimation had
been received here of his death and
even at the Hawaiian Board of Mis-
sions, the officers were 10th to believe
the report to be true.
Theodore Richards said he had read
the report but inasmuch as no cable
gram had been received of such an i'm
pOrtant event in Christian circles, he
could not say whether it might be true
or not. He stated that he had received
a postal dated October %, from DR..
Bingham, in which the writer stated
he would be operated on the following
day. The dispatch reads:
BALTIMORE, October 26.-Rev. DR..
Hiram Bingham, the noted Congrega-
tional missionary, who underwent a sur
gieal operation at Johns Hopkins hos
pital last week, died there yesterday.
DR.. Bingham was born in Honolulu in
ls3l, to which place his parents had
gone from America in 1920 as pioneer
In 1856 he went to the
jlbert Islands as a missionary.
