Eight year old Augusta Ruggles sewed the final stitches in her silk pieced quilt. Her older sister Sarah, her mother, and a number of her mother's friends from their regular sewing circle helped. This communal and social practice was and still is common in quilting. The year was 1830 and this New England ladies' group was working on a typical New England-style quilt-except they were sewing it in the Sandwich Islands.In October 1819 seven families sailed from Boston on the haddeus, arriving on April 4, 1820 in Kailua, Oahu in what is now known as Hawai'i. These families, mostly young married couples, were the first company of Christian missionaries sent to the islands by the American Board of Commissioners or Foreign Missions. Among the group were Connecticut newlyweds Samuel Ruggles, a teacher, and his wife, Nancy Wells Ruggles.The Ruggles and other New England missionaries brought their faith, their customs, their skills, and their aterial culture with them; all of which was shared and some of which
Augusta and her sister returned to the United States after 1830 to attend school. The rest of their family followed in 1834. Augusta's treasured island quilt traveled with her and was eventually passed along to her son, Samuel Ruggles Stevens. Stevens, [born in 1852] moved to Colorado City near Colorado Springs in 1895 where he operated a shoe shop. In 1967 five of his children donated the fragile but lovely silk quilt to the Colorado Springs Pioneers Museum in his memory.
At this time his daughters Hulda Garnhart, Katherine Pearl Rogula, Hazel Madonna, Myrtle Cave and Clara Jones, also provided the long-held family tradition that Augusta's quilt was "made of cast-off robes of kings and queens" of the Sandwich Islands. There is a companion Ruggles quilt residing in the Mission Houses Museum in Honolulu, Hawai'i where museum volunteer, Diana Francese, saw it on display. This experience, she says, reinforced her love for historic artifacts and opened her heart to a new understanding of Hawaii's culture. She introduced the Mission Houses Museum's astonished staff to Augusta's quilt by providing them with photos and documentation from the CSPM. The "sister" quilts were reunited at

The color schemes are nearly mirror images: Augusta's quilt is primarily gold with blue h i g h l i g h t s , whi le the one in Honolulu is primari ly blue with gold accents. There are several identical fabrics in both quilts. The quilts were both made in 1830, and the Mission Houses Museum records indicate that the blue quilt was made by either Augusta's sister
Sarah or their mother, Nancy Ruggles. It seems plausible that the two girls were making their quilts together under the instruction of their mother and her circle of sewing friends.The Hawaiians imported expensive Chinese silk fabric so that the missionaries could sew Western-style clothing for the Hawaiian royalty. The unused scraps were then used to make quilts including the two Ruggles quilts. In addition to the scraps, Augusta's quilt incorporates a piece of white floral fabric, with a visible curved seam that appears to be a scrap of a used woman's dress bodice. Could it have belonged to Nancy Ruggles? Augusta's quilt and the story of early nineteenth-century missionary life it represents are among an infinite number of history lessons embedded in the CSPM's collections. By preserving and studying them, we can bring the stories from the past alive once again.

249 Hawaiian Mission Houses Historic Site and Archives (Mission Houses) collaborated with Awaiaulu Foundation to digitize, transcribe, translate and annotate over 200-letters written by 33-Chiefs.

The letters, written between 1823 and 1887, are assembled from three different collections: the ABCFM Collection held by Harvard's Houghton Library, the HEA Collection of the Hawaii Conference-United Church of Christ and the Hawaiian Mission Children's Society.

These letters provide insight into what the Ali'i (Chiefs) were doing and thinking at the time, as well as demonstrate the close working relationship and collaboration between the ali?i and the missionaries.

In this letter, Gideon La?anui writes to Mr. and Mrs. Ruggles regarding cloth, expressing his affection to people there, and promoting faith in God.

The letter is addressed to Keiki. This is a name of endearment for Mr. Samuel Ruggles who arrived with the first company of missionaries.

Gideon Peleioholani La?anui born in 1797, was a native of Waimea, Hawai?i who was partly raised in the court of Kamehameha I, and married Namahana, a sister of Ka?ahumanu. After the arrival of the missionaries, he was an early convert and became an active member of the church, living in Waialua.

"May 29, 1827 Oahu"

"Greetings to you, Mr. and Mrs. Ruggles, and to all your retainers, as well as Kamahiainui and Haole."

"Great affection to you all; may we all be saved through Jesus."

"Here is my little message to you, Ruggles. Deliver my cloth. If it is with Maalo, then Kamahiainui should go get it, and once you see it, send it on one of your people's ships, then document that and give it to Mr. Chamberlain."

"Finished, that is all."

"Relay my affectionate thoughts to the faithful men there and the faithful women there."

"Let us all love God with great joy and with fear of God in our hearts for our many wrongdoings. That is my short message for you to tell them. It is done."

"By Gideon Laanui"

On October 23, 1819, the Pioneer Company of American Protestant missionaries from the northeast US, led by Hiram Bingham, set sail on the Thaddeus for the Sandwich Islands (now known as Hawai'i.) They arrived in the Islands and anchored at Kailua-Kona on April 4, 1820.

Over the course of a little over 40-years (1820-1863 – the "Missionary Period",) about 180-men and women in twelve Companies served in Hawai?i to carry out the mission of the American Board of Commissioners for Foreign Missions (ABCFM) in the Hawaiian Islands.

One of the earliest efforts of the missionaries, who arrived in 1820, was the identification and selection of important communities (generally near ports and ali?i residences) as "stations" for the regional church and school centers across the Hawaiian Islands.

Hawaiian Mission Houses' Strategic Plan themes note that the collaboration between Native Hawaiians and American Protestant missionaries resulted in the

The introduction of Christianity;
The development of a written Hawaiian language and establishment of schools that resulted in widespread literacy;
The promulgation of the concept of constitutional government;
The combination of Hawaiian with Western medicine, and
The evolution of a new and distinctive musical tradition (with harmony and choral singing).

250 Hawaiian Mission Houses Historic Site and Archives (Mission Houses) collaborated with Awaiaulu Foundation to digitize, transcribe, translate and annotate over 200-letters written by 33-Chiefs.

The letters, written between 1823 and 1887, are assembled from three different collections: the ABCFM Collection held by Harvard's Houghton Library, the HEA Collection of the Hawaii Conference-United Church of Christ and the Hawaiian Mission Children's Society.

These letters provide insight into what the Ali'i (Chiefs) were doing and thinking at the time, as well as demonstrate the close working relationship and collaboration between the ali?i and the missionaries.

In this letter, Kapi?olani writes to Reverend Samuel Ruggles and his wife about progress at Kuapehu, Hawai?i Island, and her wish for them to visit or write.

The letter is addressed to Keiki ma. Keiki was an affectionate nickname given by the Hawaiians to Rev. Samuel Ruggles. "Keiki ma" refers to Samuel Ruggles and company, in this case, probably his wife, Nancy Wells Ruggles.

In 1822, Naihe and Kapi?olani (husband and wife) were among the first chiefs to welcome instruction and accept Christianity. Kapi?olani was the daughter of Keawemauhili, who was the high chief of the district of Hilo (the uncle of Kiwala?o.)

"Ka'awaloa, Kuapehu, January 17, 1840"

"Greetings to the two of you, Reverend and Mrs. Ruggles,"

"Here is a message to you two to tell of the events of these years. The love of the Lord has been great in these years, converting many persons to his church through his love for us."

"Here too, a church was one of our endeavors. Parts of it are complete and others are not. The intention is, however, to complete it, for our teacher might not find physical comfort in a house that is bad, or might get sick."

"Listen, all of you, generate some compassion for us, those in need, for the minds of those in the land of ignorance have not matured to know righteousness, but the Lord sees the fruition of some, and others truly strive, so if the Lord sees it, that is good."

"There is also this: Namakelua is holding school here at Kuapehu. Also, all the chiefs have died; Kinau passed away, Lililiha died, Hoapili Kane has died, Keano is dead."

"I beseech you two to pray diligently for us so we may all live together in a good place. Thus I abide, yearning to meet together in a good place."

"Listen, both of you, you should generate love in the hearts of the brethren with my message. An expression of affection is my message to all of the brethren in America."

"Here is another message for you two, that I have no bundle to send to the two of you, it remains here in Kuapehu. On Sunday, I will go down and come back when that is done."

"All of you should know that Mr. Forbes and his wife are diligent in the work of the Lord, tender sometimes and forceful at other times."

"We also have new teachers, Mr. Ives and others, so the Lord has not deserted us here."

"Also, we have plans we are working on for our livelihood. We have planted sugar cane and the mill is processing, we planted cotton, but it is not certain. We are planting coffee again. The grape vines did not bear much fruit due to improper cultivation."

"You should write to me again about other good crops to plant so things flourish again here in Kuapehu."

"Why are you two not writing to me?"

"You should both write. Hale sends regards, Kamuela sends regards, Naihe sends regards, our mother/aunt sends regards."

"Say, you should sail here again and then return there. There are great efforts that our teacher is striving to do.

"Assisting in the new garden for the school teachers, that is up to the women, and as for the men, there is firewood for the church and other needs within the works of the Lord."

"Kapiolani Love to all the people"
