Japanese Teapot With Imperial Crest Recalls Tale Of First Issei, Manjiro
HONOLULU. — Sherman H.
White, who owns an old Japa­
nese teapot here, and Bonnie Al­
den Phillips, who told its story,
have turned up another link in
the history of Manjiro, the ship­
wrecked Japanese1 fisherman who
helped open Japan to the western
world in the mid-19th century.
The pot, which bears two Ja­
panese Imperial symbols may be
one of the first Imperial gifts
ever to be taken out of Japan.

Mrs. Phillips, who
recently
sold it here, said she inherited
the teapot from her New Eng­
land forebearers, Mr. and Mrs.
Ebenezer Alden, to whom Ma­
njiro presented it in appreciation
of their kindness to him after he
was rescued in the Pacific Ocean
by a whaling captain who took
him to Massachusetts.
She believes the pot was a
gift to Manjiro for distinguished
service to his’ country when he re­

turned there from America.
Rescued in 1841
Picked up off the coast of Ja­
pan in 1841 when he was 14 years
old, Manjiro was taken to Fai­
rhaven, Mass., and educated. It
was there the Aldens befriended
him.
In 1851 Manjiro risked
the
death penalty under the Japanese
Exclusion Edict by returning to
Japan.
His valuable knowledge of we­

stern navigation and whaling me­
thods enabled him to forestall his
execution and he became a tea­
cher and ship builder in Japan.
Two years later, when Commo­
dore Maththew C. Perry arrived
to conclude the first American
trade
agreement with Japan,
Manjiro served as translator and
advisor in the negotiations.
Returns to U.S.
In 1859 he sailed again from
Japan, traveling as interpreter

for the first Japanese embassy
to the United States. On that
journey he returned to Fairhaven
bearing gifts for the families who
had sheltered him and given him
his education when he was a
youth. Mrs. Phillips said she had
been told the teapot she inheri­
ted was given by Manjiro to her
great grandparents in Fairhaven.
“My grandmother used to tell
us about Manjiro,” Mrs. Phillips
