Description: The documents copied include Bishop George Selwyn's navigational plot book (1852-1857), the diary of Mr Charles Hunter Brown who accompanied Bishop John Richardson Selwyn on the "Southern Cross" (Apr-Sep 1877), a five volume diary by Rev.David Ruddock (1880-1884) and Mr. Philip Walsh's (an Auckland priest, artist and architect) notebook (1880-1890). Twentieth century documents include a diary by Canon Richard Godfrey (1918-1932) which includes folk-lore stories of Opa [sic.], New Hebrides and correspondence between General Secretary MM and Miss H.R. Blake re: establishment of Fauabu Clinic (1930-1942). The collection also includes historical papers relating to the history of the Church of Melanesia in Norfolk Island (1926-1938). In 1854, at the recommendation of Bishop George Augustus Selwyn, Melanesia was created as a separate See which Bishop Selwyn toured in 1857 in the mission ship Southern Cross, visiting 66 of the islands. John Coleridge Patteson was consecrated Bishop of Melanesia in 1861. Patteson and several of his companions were killed in 1871 on Nakapu, in the Santa Cruz group, after slave-raiders had visited the area. In 1867, the Mission college at Mission Bay, Auckland, moved to Norfolk Island, in 1919 to Siota, Gela Island, and in 1970 to Guadalcanal where it was renamed Bishop Patteson Theological Centre (later college), Kohimarama. The first Melanesian to be ordained was George Sarawia from Mota Island, New Hebrides (Vanuatu) in 1873. Charles Elliot Fox joined the staff of the Anglican Melanesian Mission in 1903. During his 70 years as a missionary and teacher, Fox lived and worked in most of the islands of the Solomon chain, on the Banks, and in the New Hebrides. Ini Kopuria formed the Melanesian Brotherhood in 1925. The first two Melanesian bishops were Dudley Tuti from Ysabel and Leonard Alufurai from Malaita. They were consecrated in Honiara in 1963. The Church of Melanesia was inaugurated in 1975. Quantity: 4 microfilm reel(s).

Description: Shows a tent and shelter with camp fire on the nearer (south) side of the river. On the far side are two Maori whare and two food storage platforms. A range of foothills of the Southern Alps, including Mount Grey, is in the distance. In the centre foreground by the tent, are a European man, woman and child, probably the Godley family. Two further people are by the campfire and tent on the right. There are flax bushes and scrub on the south side of the river, and a cabbage tree on the north side Compare a very similar view in Canterbury Museum titled by Weld 'Camp, banks of Courtenay (Waimakariri) Canterbury Plains, Dec 5th, 1850'. The Canterbury Museum view contains more people and a clearer view of the shelter and camp fire on the right. On Dec 5th 1850, Weld camped on the south bank of the Waimakariri with John Robert Godley, Charlotte Godley and their three-year old son Arthur Godley, as well as Charles Torlesse, Charles Hunter Brown, E J Wakefield and a surveyor, Mr Boys. Charlotte Godley wrote to her mother about the camp 'The little tent, just big enough for a bed for us three ... The flax bushes and grass grew all about, higher than our tent ... As it got dark, a party of natives, who had been assembling at some huts just across the river, came over in a canoe to pay us a visit ... Next morning we were up early, and ... had to cross the river in a canoe, the horses having to be swum over' (Godley, Charlotte. Letters from early New Zealand. Christchurch, 1951, pp 143-144). The man seated in the tent is likely to be John Robert Godley, while Charlotte Godley will be the woman holding the hand of their small son Arthur by the river. Quantity: 1 watercolour(s).
