Mrs. Bishop’s will provided that the bulk of her estate should be placed in a charitable trust “to erect and maintain in the Hawaiian Islands two schools, each for boarding and day scholars, one for boys and one for girls, to be known as, and called the Kamehameha Schools.” Mrs. Bishop’s will also directed that “the teachers of said schools shall forever be persons of the Protestant religion.” 1
