Listen, Mr. Chamberlain,
�I am requesting from you shoes for my boy, David. He is lacking any shoes. If you would
furnish them, let me know the amount of money you would like.
Charles Kanaina
Notes:
1. Mi Kamalani - Mr. Levi Chamberlain was a member of the second company of
missionaries, superintendent of secular affairs for the mission and served as a
missionary teacher.
2. David - In his 1874 book "The Friend, Or, Advocate of Truth," M.T.C. Gould
references David as a first son of Kanaʻina and Kekāuluohi who died young, and
this could be a reference to him. It could also possibly refer to David Kalākaua,
later the seventh sovereign of the kingdom, who was a student at the Chiefs’
Children’s School in Honolulu and not directly related to Charles Kanaʻina.
3. Charles Kanaina - Charles Kanaʻina was a man of chiefly lineage who married
Miriam Kekāuluohi. Their son, William Charles Lunalilo, was the sixth monarch
of the Hawaiian Kingdom.
