Typescript: [Page 1 of 2] Honolulu- 2 March 1847 Sir I do not send to you the notes by Mr Wylie and respect to the 22 articles which you propose in Hawaiian, because you do not understand our language. I am am sorry not to agree with you in many points, but I cannot consent that the King should not be Sovereign and Supreme in his own dominions or that he should be less etc, over your fellow citizens, his own natives or other foreigners. Nor can I consent that foreigners should dictate laws to us, or enjoy privileges enabling them to come into the country, without permission of the authorities, to supplant the natives of these lands, and take the whole power into their own hands. I know you do not wish to do this but your treaty would have that effect and in many things it would favor bad Americans, and prevent the govern- �ment from appointing those who are great men to attain justice from those who wish to cheat them. I cannot consent that any treaty should be formed contrary to the resolutions of the last Legislature. We desire to live quietly and in peace & not to be always in trouble. Give us a treaty that will present peace & not create troubles - one that will not restrain us in punishing the bad, nor in appointing the good. I am sure you will l endeavor to do so, for the President of the United States [Page 2 of 2] has recommended you as a good man, and I believe you to be our friend.

J. Ii. Translation: [Page 1 of 4] Letter from John Ii [Page 2 of 4] Hon. John Ii Waiawa 15 Dec. 1869 To the chairman of the Island Ministerial Conference Greetings to all of you Because of my problem with insufficient time to edit a copy or copies of the historical fragments for our newspaper, copies that might meet the wishes of one from the Supreme Court, according to what he had earlier commanded of me this past month. I am supposed to send it to him next Friday. And as to things and [Page 3 of 4] folks of this district, their vigor has diminished in the services and Sunday school, but those services have continued to this time. Volunteers have decreased as well, but no commotion or arguing is heard. Also the disagreement between myself and J. Kahauolono concerning the book is over, and we get along fine. There have not been many deaths, and there have been 19 healthy births, while 9 have died. Some are pregnant – perhaps 19. There is not much drunkenness, only very little, and it is the same for awa intoxication. It is not certain [Page 4 of 4] when these ways will end, and the same with pagan ways and such. But the Lord is the one who knows all. Also, if some item or items are considered for the days ahead, they can be seen in our newspaper. Additionally, I have continually pressed for the outstanding debts of the subscribers, 52 dollars. This should be submitted before the stated deadline – it is 53 total, and I have one dollar in hand. If the subscribers are amenable, they will pay in full, and thus the remainders shall be brought in. With love, your speaker, J. Ii Notes: 1.

Ina mai ke ^kope a Bihopa mai o wau no kau kauwa, J. Ii Translation: [Page 1 of 1] Dr. L.H. Gulick, Regards be to you, �Our little private meeting yesterday at Holo's store was about Bishop's money in my hand. Just afterwards, sadness and great embarrassment came upon me, coming from the two of you. This is the first time that I have come upon this, having mistakenly climbed onto a man-o-war jellyfish, like Kamalalawalu and the others. And therefore I ask you and all your fellow church pastors of my beloved island to please release me from duties in the services of the beloved Lord. A copy from Bishop will be forthcoming. I am your humble servant. J. Ii Notes: 1. L.H. Kulika - Dr. Luther Halsey Gulick, born in Honolulu in 1828, was the son of Rev. Peter J. Gulick, who arrived with the third company of missionaries. He was a physician and chief organizer of the Hawaiian Mission Children's Society. 2. paimalau - Paʻimalau is called a Portuguese man-o-war today, a small stinging jellyfish type of sea creature that floats on the ocean surface. 3. Kamalalawalu - Kamalālāwalu, a Maui chief, mistook a paʻimalau as a canoe, whereupon he and his group climbed up onto it, causing the paʻimalau to sink and them to lose their fishing gear. ʻĪʻī's reference to that legendary event seems to be acknowledging that he has made a grave error in judgment. 4. John Ii - John Papa ʻĪʻī began his service in the royal court when he served as an attendant to Kalanikualiholiho, Kamehameha II. Īʻī later became a trusted advisor and chief in the court of Kauikeaouli, Kamehameha III and continued to serve the sovereigns of Hawaiʻi until his death in 1870. � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.
