The Hawaiian Islands are among the greatest of the marvels of
missionary success.
During the five years ending June, 1841, 7,557 persons were
received into the Church at Hilo, constituting three-fourths
of the whole adult population of the parish. When Titus Coan
left Hilo, in 1870, he had himself received and baptized 11,960
persons.--PIERSON, “The Miracles of Missions.”
