(Ed Ahnne Orsmond Henry Walker Papeete 1923)
"In the harassed times that followed the French occupation of Tahiti, Rev Orsmond, realizing the English government was not going to interfere, opposed the action of the missionaries in encouraging the natives to resist the French. Accused of aiding the French, he was dismissed by the London Missonary Society on July 2, 1844. Subsequently made government pastor at Papeete under the French Protestant Mission."
