Writing to his brother, Father Pamphile, in August of 1864, Blessed Damien of Moloka'i said of his new home in the Hawaiian islands:
For two months, June and July, we have the sun directly over our heads; still the heat is not so great as I thought. The climate is delightful, so that strangers easily become accustomed to it, and generally enjoy better health here than in their own country.
I know this to be true.
