H.M. Tahitian Consul, Mr. Pritchard... receiving the petition of a native chief, 1844

H.M. Tahitian Consul, Mr. Pritchard, in his official dress, receiving the petition of a native chief, 1844. We gather from the statement of Mr. Josiah Conder, at a meeting held at Finsbury Chapel, Moorfields, on Tuesday evening, that principally to the generosity of Mr. [George] Pritchard is Queen Pomare indebted for aiding her to pay the fine inflicted upon her by the French. It appears that Mr. Pritchard left Tahiti early in 1841, and did not return till 1843: and it was during his absence that those events took place which ended in the dethronement of Queen Pomare. From " Illustrated London News", 1844, Vol I
