	Henry Williams - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Henry Williams used what is known to be as "Missionary Maori", which are not traditional Maori, but made up by the missionairies.
		Henry Williams was one of the many European Missionaries that arrive in New Zealand, in an attempt to bring Christianity to the Maori people.
		For the American college football coach, see Henry L. Williams.

	Bishop Patteson of Melanesia
		The practice of the missionary vessels as they visited each island of persuading the young men who came out to visit them to come with them to be trained as missionaries must surely have influenced the locals to believe that the missionary's vessel and the blackbirder's vessel had something in common.
		The withdrawal of John Henry Newman from her pale had transferred at once the greatest mind and one of the noblest natures from the University to the Church of Rome.
		The people had become deeply attached to their missionary, and the native teachers whom he had instructed in the doctrines of the faith were bravely carrying on the work.

	A Church Leaders' Statement for 1990: A Backgrounder
		At the initial signing of the Treaty at Waitangi there were several missionaries present on the official dais, including Samuel Ironside and John Warren, of the Wesleyan Missionary Society, and Henry Williams and Richard Taylor of the Church Missionary Society who acted as official interpreters and the Catholic Bishop Pompallier.
		One of these, Henry Williams, with Edward his son, translated the Treaty into Maori.
		An important aspect of the Treaty resulted from a discussion of what we would call religious freedom and customary law by the Anglican missionary, William Colenso, and Bishop Pompallier.

	William Carey, D. D. (1761-1834): Biographical Studies (Twentieth Century)
		In a phenomenon not unknown to missionary experience, Felix and his younger brother William were unruly and of an impetuous temperament, though their outrageous conduct seems to have stopped short of outright defiance.
		Bowie's section on Carey appears alongside brief material similarly introducing Roger Williams and Adoniram Judson.
		William Ward, the Serampore printer, offering attention that was in arrears from preoccupied parents, called Felix, with exotic irony, the "Tiger." Perhaps Ward realized that Felix suffered from "unhealthy premature development," which was, according to Chaterjee, natural "among European children who resided in the tropics in their teens"(p.18).

	Torturing History: Reason reviews Victor Davis Hanson's Carnage & Culture (with Davis's reply)
		Surgeon Reynolds, Otto Witt and the Reverend George Smith <../defenders/smith.htm>, a local Anglican missionary and Chaplain of the Weenen Yeomanry, a local volunteer unit, who was serving as a volunteer Chaplain to Number Three Column, climbed to the top of the Oskarberg and peered through a telescope towards Isandlwana.
		Hook found himself in a room containing nine sick men, until John Williams, who informed Hook of Joseph Williams’s fate, Horrigan was dead, joined him also, he had stumbled in the wrong direction after exiting the escape hole and blundered into some Zulus in the smoke and confusion.
		John Williams seized a pick-axe and began knocking a hole in a partition wall, then the Zulus grabbed hold of Joseph Williams's rifle and manhandled him out of the room, spread-eagled him and assegaied him.

		The people had become deeply attached to their missionary, and the native teachers whom he had instructed in the doctrines of the faith were bravely carrying on the work.
		The ship sailed again, passing Erromanga, the scene of the martyrdom of John Williams, and arrived at Fate - an island of very evil repute, as the natives were cannibals and had already murdered their Samoan teacher.

	Betty Harris
		It was originally recorded by Henry Lumpkin on Motown (co-written by Andre Williams - the lyrics bear his humorous touch), and was also be covered by Larry Williams as ‘Louisiana Hannah’ and would later be a big New Orleans hit for Tami Lynn.
		She was born 1941 (or 1943 depending on the reference) in Florida to a Minister father and a missionary mother.
		Yet in a seven year recording career that yielded 8 sides for Jubilee Records, 18 for Sansu and 2 for SSS, Betty Harris left a legacy of soul vocals that rival any of her contemporaries for complexity, imagination and pure soul.

	Project Canterbury: Tractarianism
		The Oxford Movement proper ended with Newman's secession to Roman Catholicism in 1845, but Tractarianism as a distinct movement in the English Church continued well into the second half of the century under the leadership of Keble, Pusey, Isaac Williams and a large body of parochial clergy.
		Tractarianism found a welcoming audience in the United States and British North America, and it encouraged missionary endeavours to Africa, New Zealand, Australia and Asia.
		The sermon's assertion of the spiritual independence of the Church of England from the interference of Parliament became a rallying-cry for a group of clerical dons and Churchmen, including Keble himself, John Henry Newman, Richard Hurrell Froude and John William Bowden.

	The Chartists
		Chartist lodges were springing up everywhere, largely due to the missionary zeal of Henry Vincent, one of the most charismatic speakers of his day, and William Edwards, known as the Newport Baker.
		On the grounds of a legal technicality brilliantly argued by the defending barrister, Sir Frederick Pollock, the death sentence was commuted and on February 2nd, 1840 Frost, Williams and Jones set sail for Tasmania to begin their new sentence of transportation for life.
		John Frost was arrested that evening in the house of a friend in Newport, David Lewis was found hiding in a chest at the King Crispin on November 5th, and William Jones was arrested after a brief struggle near the Navigation Inn at Crumlin.

	Aitutaki : In Depth Frommers.com
		The monument in front is to John Williams, the exploring missionary who came to Aitutaki in October 1821, and to Papeiha, the Tahitian teacher who came with him and stayed for 2 years, during which time he converted the entire island.
		The late Sir Albert Henry was born and raised on Aitutaki, and the divided road to the wharf is named for him and his wife, Elizabeth (one lane for Sir Albert and one lane for Lady Elizabeth).
		The volcanic part of Aitutaki is joined to the reef on the island's north end, and it was here that some U.S. forces -- with considerable help from the local residents -- built the large airstrip during World War II.

	Britain's Carry On films
		When the Carry On team crash into Henry VIII's England, Cleopatra's Egypt, or Louis XVI's France, it's to prove that base instincts and bodily processes are just as prevalent in a world pseudo-sanitized by wealth, grandeur, or history as in the seaside-postcard context that commentators see as the movie saga's matrix.
		Jacques is a frustrated spinster of tentlike proportions, Charles Hawtrey a campily dotty shrink, and Williams a psychological stretcher-case: he is afraid, amid other hypochondrias, that he is changing sex.
		The Livingstone character in Carry On Up the Jungle turns out to be no mythic missionary but merely Charles Hawtrey as a gone-native English nutter.

	Definition of Auckland
		On the initial recommendation of the missionary Henry Williams, supported by the Surveyor General, Felton Mathew, Hobson selected the south side of the Waitemata Harbour as his future capital.
		The Chief Magistrate, Captain William Cornwallis Symonds, soon purchased the necessary land from the Ngati Whatua owners, and a foundation ceremony took place at 1pm on 18 September 1840, probably on the higher ground at the top end of present-day Queen Street.
		Hobson named the new settlement in honour of George Eden, 1st Earl of Auckland, a patron and friend of his.

	Sermon - 18 May 2005
		In 1836 Te Rauparaha himself wrote to Henry Williams asking for a missionary to be sent down, but, at that time, no one was available.
		Te Rauparaha was the Ngati Toa chief who terrorised people down the west coast of the North Island from Kawhia south, and the northern parts of the South Island, early in the 19th Century.
		Te Rauparaha and Tamihana went that one stage further, and shared the Gospel truth with the people with whom they had been fighting.
