  John Coleridge Patteson - LoveToKnow 1911   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-07)
JOHN COLERIDGE PATTESON (1827-1871), English missionary, bishop of Melanesia, was born in London on the 1st of April 1827, the eldest son of Sir John Patteson, justice of the King's Bench, and Frances Duke Coleridge, a near relative of Samuel Taylor Coleridge.
He was killed by natives at Nukapu, in the Santa Cruz group, on the 10th of September 1871, the victim of a tragic error.
His murderers evidently found out their mistake and repented of it, for the bishop's body was found at sea floating in a canoe, covered with a palm fibre matting, and a palm-branch in his hand.

On 20 September 1871 the Right Reverend John Coleridge ("Coley") Patteson, the first Anglican Bishop of Melanesia, met his death in the hands of natives in the Santa Cruz Islands.
He, too, was killed in the line of duty, and for the sixteen years of his ministry in the New Hebridean, Banks and Solomon Islands he had protected his dusky parishioners as best he could against the white man's raids.

These latter drawbacks are doubled when the subject of the biography has passed away in comparatively early life: when the persons with whom his life is chiefly interwoven are still in full activity; and when he has only lived to sow his seed in many waters, and has barely gathered any portion of his harvest.
Thus what I have written of Bishop Patteson, far more what I have copied of his letters, is necessarily only partial, although his nearest relations and closest friends have most kindly permitted the full use of all that could build up a complete idea of the man as he was.
Many letters relate to home and family matters, such as it would be useless and impertinent to divulge; and yet it is necessary to mention that these exist, because without them we might not know how deep was the lonely man's interest and sympathy in all that concerned his kindred and friends.

On a sunny afternoon in 1871, in a palm-thatched hut on the island of Nukapu, the first bishop of Melanesia, John Coleridge Patteson, was clobbered to death by islanders he'd been trying to convert.
Inspired by the Patteson legend, he had left his comfortable post as bishop of Tasmania and embarked on a mission to convert the inhabitants of the hundreds of islands in the Melanesian archipelago, which stretches from Fiji to New Guinea.
From the old tale of Bishop Patteson's demise to the latest headlines from the region's bloody unrest, "The Shark God" is an embrace of myth-making - religious, secular and political.
