    1844c.: Local entire letter addressed to "Ma Misi Taluali at Falealili" care of Rev. G. (George) Stallworthy, a member of the London Missionary Society who first arrived in Tahiti in March 1834 and thereafter, in February 1844 he joined the Samoan Mission at Falealisi, Upolu, Samoa and was later in the New Hebrides Islands between May and August 1858. Shocking contents: "Leaumrega, wed. ½ past 10 am, Dear Henry, Mr. Heath is dead and I am grievous beyond expression. It is for me to add that he committed suicide. This awful affair took place at Sapapatu last night. He cut his throat with his razor in the little house between 7 and 8 in the evening...". A rare and early local entire, together with poorly folded local entire letter written in Samoan from Lifu to Malua carried by hand.
