"Journal of Residence in the New Hebrides, S.W. Pacific Ocean" by Revds. C. Bice and A. Brittain is a historical account written in the late 19th century. This journal chronicles the experiences and observations of the authors during their time working with the Melanesian Mission in the New Hebrides islands. The focus of the work is on their missionary activities, interactions with the local populations, and descriptions of the islands' landscapes and
cultures. The beginning of this journal sets the stage for the authors' journey, detailing their departure from Norfolk Island, where they are warmly bid farewell by the local community. The narrative quickly moves to their experiences at sea, including their struggles with seasickness and the challenges posed by bad weather. As they journey towards the New Hebrides, they introduce the islands and their varying populations, providing insight into the ongoing mission work. The authors highlight their hopes for the Melanesians, noting both the beauty of the islands and the difficulties faced by the inhabitants, as they seek to spread education and Christianity among the local communities.
