description Journal of Geroge Turner and Henry Nisbet, July - August 1848, describing their visit to the islands of the New Hebrides [Vanuatu] - Anatom, Tanna, Niua, Fate (or Sandwich Island) [Efate], the Loyalty Islands - Lifu and Mare, and Niue (or Savage Island), where they reported on the progress of the mission and the native teachers previously settled there. The lives of the native teachers were frequently threatened by islanders who attributed to them the outbreak of various epidemics. Also mentions visits of Roman Catholic priests and contains lists of the islands with information about their stations and the names of the native teachers.
