"The expressed intent of the proprietor Rev. Samuel Chenery Damon Seaman's Chaplain for Honolulu was to produce a 'Temperance paper' for the benefit of seamen and the subjects found on its pages particularly during the first decade reflected Damon's work in this vein among sailors and crews of whale ships . Damon however also made an effort to include general information and news of interest to those in the Pacific and in New England. Extensive coverage was given to the whaling industry. Shipping lists were reproduced. 'Marine Intelligence' columns gave detailed reportage on whale ships throughout the Pacific. Considerable effort was made to fill other columns with arrival and departure lists of vessels and their passengers . Occasionally editor Damon included notes on his visits to Kauai Maui and Hawaii" Forbes. Of particular note in these early issues is a register of foreign residents in Honolulu January 15 1847.
