Settd King Pomare had a ingagment the same
day the king Gorge left here and through provedance
of God gained the victory without many lives lost -
Pomare have got the goverment of Taheite a
gain - after the war was over the King sent for Oro
ther princable god of Taheite and the neibouring Isla
nds and fired musket bals through it and birnt great
ter part of it ther is a great maney of there gods
destroyed both here and the Luard Islands also
the King sem sincer in aboleshing idolatery and to
establish Christianity there is but a verey few of
the people here now but what have imbracd
our religin I hope the Lod will go on to be
grasheaus tel he have brout a great multatude to
Sho forth his praise - ples to give my respcts
