description This series contains miscellaneous papers relating to the South Seas mission field which would not fit into the above series of records. Listing of these records is somewhat limited, but the lists should be consulted as much useful material can be found. Papers often give interesting information on the organisation of individual missions that may not be found elsewhere. The series includes papers of Deputational visits to LMS missions, minute books and ships' papers. The latter include material relating to LMS mission ships including The Duff, The Camden, The Harriet, The Messenger of Peace, The Olive Branch and the John Williams line, and include correspondence, publicity materials, blueprints, photographs and records such as Chief Officers' log books for The Olive Branch, 1900-1901, John Williams IV, 1909, 1920, 1927-1929, and John Williams V, 1930.
