When Mr. Bliss’s house was completed, a few days afterward Mr. Bailey erected his house, in the Hawaiian style also. At its erection, and completed except one corner, one side was then undone and rethatched. Kaili again remarked, as he had done of the house of Mr. Bliss. They lived in those two houses nearly two years, after which they moved to Iole,1 and in A.D. 1841, Mr. Bliss left for America, while Mr. E. Bailey removed to Wailuku, Maui. This was the fulfillment of his priestly knowledge. From that time down to A.D. 1854, in the month of June, I heard from time to time of the order of priesthood.
