Nahaolelua Translation: [Page 1 of 2] Fort, Lahaina May 7, 1852 To Baldwin, my teacher Greetings to the two of you, A short message to the two of you, lest you hear from someone else about this large gathering of people in our town here, from Dr. Dow's place to Kapihi's first hotel. A son of that old foreign man who recently died, Alika being the boy's name, nearly died today. Here is the setting, he was held, nearly dead, in a room by P., our chief of police. But he was not beaten or whipped [there] [Page 2 of 2] but was only very weak, or so the police officers told me. This is what spared him, the men bringing Dr. Dow and giving him medicine. But his condition is not certain, and the doctors are saying that he is damaged. Here is why this wrong occurred, money belonging to a certain foreigner was possibly stolen and it was assumed that it was a particular boy, who was held and whipped with a lash on his back until badly hurt. His hands were tied and his feet secured, then he was whipped, while being questioned about the money so as to hurt him without investigating first. When I heard, I went to release him. He was hurt, and that is what angers me. There should be no inflicting of injury without a previous trial. Regards to the two of you, P. Nahaolelua Baldwin and wife, Honolulu �Notes: 1. Papu - Pāpū, fort, refers to the Fort at Lahaina, Maui. It was demolished two years after this letter. 2. Nahaolelua - P. Nāhaolelua was from Kawaihae and was appointed Governor of Maui from 1852 to 1874. His name, which literally means "the two foreigners," is a reference to the two advisors of Kamehameha I, John Young and Isaac Davis. 3. Palauina - Rev. Dwight Baldwin was a member of the fourth company missionaries that arrived in 1831. A trained doctor, he resided on Maui, but was in Honolulu at the time of this letter. 4. Kauka Kao - Dr. Kao [Dow] is mentioned in Hawaiian accounts by that spelling, but Dow seems to be his English name. His full name and background is unknown. He is acknowledged as a good doctor in Maui. 5. Hokela mua o Kapihi - This reference to the "Kapihi's first hotel" is obscure. Hokela is a variant of Hōkele, or "hotel". There are multiple Kapihi, one a guardian for Kamehameha III and another a ship captain, but neither is known to have had hotels in Lahaina. 6. Keiki a kela haole i make aku nei - This reference to Alika, the accused, as a "son of that foreigner who recently died," doesn't give the name of the father, but implies a well-known foreigner who died prior to the event. 7. P. ka makai nui a kakou - P. is likely a reference to William Cooper Parke, the Marshal of the Hawaiian Islands from 1850 to 1884. 8. make - This word has many meanings, from defeated, to beaten, to killed. It is used in multiple ways in this letter. 9. lolo (lōlō) - This word, describing the condition of the beaten youth, can mean brain damaged, crazy, paralyzed, numb, crippled, enfeebled, etc., and the actual state of the young man is not clear in this context. � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Nahaolelua �[Page 2 of 2] [Letter Cover] Gov. P. Nahaolelua Hon. Ap. 13/53 Translation: [Page 1 of 2] Honolulu Oahu April 13, 1853 Greetings to you and all those of your household. Kimoke’s dispute regarding joining the Legislature is over, the claim in the petition did not come to pass. There is nothing new happening at the moment, but the sickness of the king remains upon him, and he is in pain, which is unlikely to end soon. Legislative bills have not been brought out these days because those of both houses are unprepared, the main problem with the House of Representatives is due to the building being reserved for jury trials, with 7 o'clock at night being work time, so the work is unfinished because so little gets done. The King is considering selecting again those who will return to the House of Nobles. Reverend With regards to you, Baldwin P.. Nahaolelua [Page 2 of 2] [Letter cover] Gov. P. Nahaolelua Hon. Ap. 13/53 Notes: 1. Kimoke - Possibly Timothy, but uncertain. This could refer to T. Keaweiwi, a member of the House of Representatives in the 1853 session. 2. hale makaainana - House of Representatives, elected by public vote. 3. aha olelo Alii - A reference to the House of Nobles, the members of which were appointed by the king. 4.

Few bills have been brought out from the House of Representatives, and from our house a bill came out regarding the suppression of wine, but the bill was defeated in our house. From the House of Representatives came another bill concerning liquor-selling establishments, to reduce them to just eight liquor stores here in Honolulu, but there were 10 previously. It was defeated in our house, so ten will remain, not eight. In the next issue of the Elele you will see all the things done by the two houses. There is great desire to finish and return home.

Nahaolelua Kahuna pule [Page 3 of 3] [Letter Cover] P. Nahaolelua Hon. Iune 22/53 Translation: [Page 1 of 3] Honolulu June 22. 1853 �D. Baldwin, Greetings to you and your household. I happened to hear about your opinions opposing the travel of people from this island to your island, for fear of this terrible sickness. Yes, you are right to think that way, because some of our group have met with people who had come into contact with this sickness, and others have stayed with a sick person and tended to them. Here, however, is my thought: it might be proper for us to be quarantined when we return, perhaps at the hospital. I do not intend to stay with others who come back with me, but I should have a separate house, for it is not known where others have stayed. But I will consider where I should stay. Also, people should not be around us when we come back. This sickness may have clung to us, because, as per the Health Committee members’ announcement, [Page 2 of 3] this disease can be carried on the wind, and the wind may have actually brought it to us. If we are separated and people who want to see us come, it would not be because of us, but likely due to intentional disregard [on their part]. Here is this, maybe my wife could be around me, if she is not fearful, but if she is afraid, that would be alright. All these statements above, they will be nothing if you folks hold no fears about us, about us having entered the town of Honolulu, the place where this sickness has spread about. That would be the end of it, to become a non-issue. Me, truly, with regards to all, Baldwin P. Nahaolelua Reverend [Page 3 of 3] [Letter cover] P. Nahaolelua Hon. Iune 22/53 Notes: 1. D.

Nahaolelua [Letter Cover] Gov. P. Nahaolelua May 20. 1854 Translation: [Page 1 of 1] Honolulu May 20. / 54 Baldwin, Greetings to you. I have a bit of something to tell you, as follows: this Legislature is not like the Legislature of the past year, 1853. Here is the difference, in my opinion: there is no foreigner in the House of Nobles now to oppose the statements of Wyllie, when previously, Judd was the one who would oppose. Wyllie’s statements nearly always prevail. No foreigner opposes him, only a few Hawaiians do. They are the only ones who pose opposition. That is my only concern, for you have heard about Wyllie's previous actions. My thoughts are relieved, though, at the work of the House of Representatives; they are working to abolish beer establishments and the great amount of liquor sold at Polo's place. Regards to the entire household, With gratitude, P. Nahaolelua [Letter Cover] Gov. P. Nahaolelua May 20. 1854 Notes: 1. Parauina – Rev. Dwight Baldwin arrived with the fourth company of missionaries and served as a physician on Maui. �2. Wale - R.C. Wale, Robert Crichton Wyllie, a doctor and businessman from Scotland who settled in Hawaiʻi in 1844. He became a member of the House of Nobles and served many years as the Minister of Foreign Affairs for the Kingdom of Hawaiʻi. 3. Kauka - Dr. Gerrit Parmele Judd, known as Kauka, was a member of the 3rd company of missionaries, arriving in Hawaiʻi in 1828. A medical doctor by training, he became an important advisor to the king and the government, holding a number of official positions and resigning from the mission in 1842. 4. Polo - The identity of Polo is uncertain, but is likely either an area in Honolulu, the name of a liquor establishment or the name of someone who owned such a place. Polelewa, sometimes spelled Pololewa, was a portion of Honolulu town with shops and bars. 5. P. Nahaolelua - Paul Nāhaolelua served in various government positions. At the time of this letter he was the royal governor of Maui and a member of the House of Nobles. � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.
