192812860Various locations in Hawaii and Japan 1928. 12 leaves illustrated with 123 mounted sepia-toned photographs many captioned in the image area occasional manuscript captions on the album leaves. Oblong folio. Contemporary pictorial cloth illustrated with various Japanese motifs string tied. Minor wear to cloth. Internally clean. Very good. An attractive and informative vernacular photograph album memorializing the experiences of Protestant missionaries in the Pacific. Protestant missionaries came to Hawaii starting in the 1820s and eventually became quite socially and politically influential. The first Protestant missionaries arrived in Japan in the mid-1840s. They were relegated to treaty ports and prohibited from proselytizing but once these restrictions were lifted they were fairly successful with 300 churches and 34000 converts by 1889. Their main avenue was education and by the 1920s they were well established in this sector. The present album of photographs were taken by an American missionary in Hawaii and Japan in 1927 and 1928. It is not entirely clear whether the photographer did any missionary work in Hawaii or if it was just a stop on the way to Japan; the photos from Hawaii show Honolulu harbor from the deck of the President Madison the "Club House" and Diamond Head.<br /> <br /> The photographs from Japan are more clearly missionary. The photographer was involved in teaching in Kyoto; captions include "Kami Kyoku Bishamon Cho" listed as a theological school in the 1928 Japan Mission Year Book "Japanese Language School" "The Faculty" "Nihongo Faculty" and "St Agnes Ena -- Music." There are two St. Agneses in the Year Book both middle schools one in Tokyo and one in Kyoto. Two photos of an older Japanese man in a clerical collar captioned "Mr Hayakawa" suggest this is the St. Agnes in Kyoto as Mr. K. Hayakawa is listed as the head of that school. Other individuals listed in the Year Book include Sally Rembert Thora Johnson and "Maxine" who is probably Maxine Schannep with the ABCFM. Generally the school shots are exteriors of buildings and people posing outside of them; there are also shots of Christmas trees at St. Agnes the students of "Helen’s Kindergarten" in Koriyama girls in school uniform with deer at Nara Park and several of the nurse's home at St. Luke's Hospital in Tokyo.<br /> <br /> Other photos show life around Kyoto and other cities including Nikko and Fukui. Most of the men are in Western dress while the women and children wear kimono. Two photos of Buddhist monks included in the album were taken by Japanese photographer Kurokawa Suizan; these show a KomusŠin a tengai hat playing the flute and a kasa-hatted monk on the steps of a building. Finally some uncaptioned shots show a procession taking place in front of an audience. Some in the procession carry flags a few are on horseback and a few carry plants on their heads and part of the procession carries a litter.<br /> <br /> Overall the album documents both religious education and everyday life in late 1920s Japan; of particular interest to historians of Protestant missionaries. unknown

This noteworthy archive consisting of over 820 original photographs and over 1000 individual negative images provides an essential visual record of the historic archaeological and architectural surveys carried out by the Frosts for the Hawaiian Mission Children’s Society beginning in 1967 in the Bond Historic District located in the Iole Ahupua’a one of the few remaining traditional land divisions in Hawaii. The Bond homestead Kalahikiola Church the Kohala Seminary and attached medical doctor’s office are all located within the Bond District and the well preserved homestead was first established by Rev. Elias Bond 1813-1896 in 1841 with the Kalahikiola Church completed in 1855 rebuilt after devastating earthquake in 2006 and the Kohala girl’s school founded in 1872. The hundreds of photos show the household objects textiles tools furnishings documents artwork books equipment and more all accumulated from 1841 through 1930 by the Bond family. Elias and his wife Ellen had sailed with the Ninth Company of Missionaries from Boston and settled at Kohala HI in the mission established by Rev. Isaac Bliss who had completed the main building before their arrival. The Bond’s immediately began adding additional buildings such as the wash house archway & walls foundations of woodshed and carpenter sheds as well as begun work on the Kalahikiola Church. Rev. Bond had founded the Kohala Sugar Co. in 1862 as “The Missionary Plantation†to support his church and schools and he refused to institute the slave-like labor conditions of other sugar growers in the Hawaiian Islands. The profits made the Kohala Sugar Co. one of the largest benefactors to other missions operating for 110 years. Many of the artifacts depicted appear to have been accumulated and used by Dr. Benjamin Bond 1853-1930 his son who finished medical school at the Univ. of Michigan in 1882 and returned to live and work on the homestead with a doctor’s office attached to the main house in 1884 for his practice. After Dr. Bond married Emma Mary Renton 1866-1951 in 1889 a wood-framed cottage was added at the East end for them. In addition a small shed was expanded to shelter a horse carriage and single horse stall for emergency medical calls. A series of photos shows the scene of the Frost’s driving to the homestead and then heading into the Bond properties. The photos meticulously document the china glassware stoneware needlepoint & embroidery samples an ABC sampler by Eliza Bond signed 1817 silver flatware bellows original photos & illustrations of homestead buildings chairs large benches and sideboards. The kitchen cooking implements cookware and equipment receive significant attention with photos showing the ancient kitchen burners hot water tank propane or oil-fired stove historic coral stone chimney dining chairs and more. Of particular interest are the extended series of images depicting the artifacts medical instruments and furnishings in Dr. Bond’s office including his book collection Chautauqua desk large safe dried medical herbs razors astronomy atlas anatomy atlas diagrams eyeglasses glass beakers pharmacy tools and much more. Also included are photos of abandoned boxes for chemical and pharmaceutical supplies in the attic. The breadth of clothing textiles toiletry items jewelry rope beds architectural elements family photos a Chinese compass art easel and more reflect the growing affluence of the family not only from Dr. Bond’s practice but also as the sugar production and mill expand however with much of the profit still being devoted to Mission Society projects. The negatives and photos also show the wagons used by the doctor and his family the extensive tools employed on the homestead to maintain not only the family holdings but also the Church and Girl’s School buildings. Photos also show a bookpress bottles sawmill equipment a rock crusher installed for road paving and more. After Dr. Bond’s death the buildings were maintained by a special trust fund which terminated in 1968 and subsequent to that time a family corporation helped finance the care of the estate. The manuscript diagrams and notes by the Frost indicate where windows were replaced from the original when electrical work was done on the property improvements to the buildings where the hallway from the shop to kitchen was located the women’s toilet pantry cupboards and rough charts and maps of locations of buildings and objects on some of the walls. For a time the Industrial Building housing 12 occupational students and one teacher continued to operate but in 1955 the school stopped functioning. For over a decade the properties were used for conferences retreats and camping grounds but eventually they became unoccupied and unused so they were in very poor condition when surveyed by the Frosts over three years. The Frosts prepared a very scarce photo album and report consisting of 6 pages of text and 12 leaves containing 82 tipped-in photos in January 1968 followed by a Feasibility Study for the Hawaiian Mission Children’s Society in 1969 but we could find no similar extant collection of these photographs or records of this historical survey. The National Register Survey was completed in 1973 and then filed in 1977 finally approved in 1978 for adding the properties to the National Register.
