Image title	“’Dayspring’ - the missionary ship of 160 tons. Loaded up and ready to start to settle four missionaries in the New Hebrides [Vanuatu] Islands. Captain Braithwaite in front; his wife on the left; bananas on the right. Mr. Paton has raised £9000 to buy a steamer. Calms constitute the great difficulty of New Hebrides sailing. Two former vessels were lost in calms.” ❧ Exterior view of the deck of the ship. John Gibson Paton (1824-1907), mentioned, was ordained in 1858. He and his wife, Mary Ann Robson (1840-1859), arrived at Aneityum [Anatom] on 30 August 1858. When he and his followers were forced to flea the island of Tanna in 1862, Paton was sent to the Australian colonies to promote the Presbyterian cause and to raise funds for a mission vessel. He raised interest and revenue by allowing Sunday-school children to become sixpenny shareholders in this new mission ship, Dayspring, built in Nova Scotia in 1863. Among Australian Presbyterians support for the New Hebrides mission became a popular cause, and Paton raised £5000.
