EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving depicts the Right Reverend Thomas Nettleship Staley, D.D., the first Anglican Bishop of Hawaii, taken from a photograph by the Mayer Brothers in 1862. Staley, a former Fellow of Queen's College, Cambridge, was appointed by the Archbishop of Canterbury and consecrated on December 15, 1861, alongside the Bishops of Gloucester and Bristol, London, and Oxford acting as assessors. Since his consecration, Bishop Staley has been dedicated to raising funds to establish the Church in his new diocese. On August 18, 1862, he embarked on the Tasmania from Southampton, accompanied by two clergymen, one of whom had already preceded him. Upon his arrival in Honolulu, his first official act would be the baptism of the Prince of Hawaii, a three-year-old child who was next in line for the crown. The Queen had graciously consented to act as the child's sponsor by proxy.
