"Never again with there be anything quite like that hopeful band of German missioners who in 1842 set off in the general direction of New Zealand and more by chance than guidance ended up on the Chatham Islands. They reached the Chathams not long after invading Maoris had crushed the native Morioris who declined to resist. Enslaved, they were killed if they did not work hard enough, or just for food."
