Vernal missionary describes early Hawaii buildings
A reader letter from Morley Jones, a missionary in Hawaii, details early Hawaiian dwellings. Structures ranged from grass huts with palm leaf thatch to lattice tents, built to withstand rain and sun. roofs used pole frames and thatch, sometimes windproof. Some settlements featured palm leaf walls with woven interiors, ground floors covered by mats, and camps of thatched huts. The piece notes changes as horses arrive and new cooking stoves replace older methods, with references to palm leaf roofs and improvised shelters.
