Typescript:
[Page 1 of 4]
New York City
June 8th 1850
My dear Mrs. Bates
Your kind note was received
while we were in Boston, and I thought I
would sit right down, and answer it but
we were so much engaged with Company, &amp; calls,
and all those things that Lions have to undergo, that I really found it impossible. I received
one from Nelly a very short one to be sure,
and just long enough, short enough I mean,
as to let me know that ^she had some faint ideas
of such a being ^as myself somewhere, And then again
it was ^so distant, so top lofty, that I was almost
afraid to answer it but finally I summoned
courage, but I haven't sent sent it yetI did not know but ^what widowers are getting
scarce there - I was sorry to hear from you
that you did had not received one from meI wrote you in Paris but perhaps, as yours
was dated the 7th March, that the letters did

�not arrive till the 9th as I have heard Yours are the only regular letters that I
[Page 2 of 4]
receive. William also wrote very regularly, but I have received only one from
the King thus far, eight months from home,
the Queen has written oftener, and her
letters are very affectionate. John Young
wrote once &amp; I received one from the
Governor notifying me of the death of my
step mother. But that great composition
writer, the all powerful, the never tiring
letter writer, Miss. E. H. Judd not a
single word, very true I never wrote,
but then friends are nothing else but
such, and sometimes they are placed in
different circumstances. Nelly, she has
written of course “tres pen”. But Bernice
she has no course to pursue, but to say
that she has cut me, that is all, the I
wrote her in San Francisco, was acknowledged indirectly by another person to
Lot but merely mentioning the fact that
she has received it. I see no excuse except that more other objects of more interest
than letter writing have taken her round,
in plain, that she is to be married, as
I hear, of course there is no use of
[Page 3 of 4]
expecting any, but perhaps she might have
written to let me know ^that I am sure that
that would be a very good piece of news, at
any rate it would be gratifying but perhaps
all forgotten, the world, its cares; its every thing;
^everything looking on ahead to future happiness &amp; bliss-true
happiness in Wedded life, settling down, keeping
house, money from the Hawaii Plantationdelightful- exquisite happiness I say: Go it

�when you are young” Now I have spent
3/4ths of my sheet blowing ^up the whole town of
Honolulu, now I will tell how we are doing.
The Doctor is fat, well, gained 20 pounds since he
left home. Lot &amp; myself ditto every thing goes on
well. Just returned from Washington, saw
General Taylor, went to his reception, visited
Congress saw most of the Great Men of the
United States. Henry Clay was making a good
deal of fuss about a compromise between the
Northern &amp; Southern States, about the Slavery Question.
We first arrived from England at Boston, was
made Lions of there by the Mayor &amp; City
Authorities and also by the American
Board. The Country seats around there are very
Few. Monday we shall attend a grand
[Page 4 of 4]
file-champetre a 200 $3000 affair
Some 4 or 500 invitations given out,
the party expressly for us. It is given
by some friends of Mr. Jarves. One
of the princely merchants of
Staten Island. We are to spend
the night there and the next
morning morn we are to have a
dejeuner a la fouchette. We are
going up to Niagra falls, visit the
Lakes, and your Mother, and then
we shall be Homeward Bound.
When in Paris I wrote, I did not
come like to come home so very
soon, but it was only because I
had got out of the sphere of growth
attraction. But the nearer I draw
towards home I feel liking jumping
some where I know not. But the
idea of seeing you again some few
weeks after you receive this is
horrid, it seems as if time was

�slacking her pace to torment meBut patience and ^all will come and
in due time. My love to all friends
and Enemies ditto- Brothers Sisters &amp; all ditto[in margin, continuing in same hand]
Remember me to Mr. Bates, the boys, and especially to Sissy
I shall bring her some sugar candy- See you 31st-49th
But I must bid you farewell - till we meet at the
Ileue[?] I remain your ^affectionate adopted son Alexander

Washington Place March 14th 1907
Hon J.O. Carter
Dear Sir,
I learn from this
mornings paper of the death
of Mrs. Mary Castle. Will you
kindly write for me a letter
to the members of that family,
expressing my sympathy with
them in their deep sorrow.
Lets not forget the great
good they have done for my
people in their lifetime and it
shows one how wonderful are
the ways of Providence.
[Page 2 of 2]
Will you kindly see that six
seats may be reserved at the
church for the Prince &amp; Princess

�Kalanianaole &amp; myself, my
two boys and Mr. Senittiso[?].
Sincerely Yours
Liliuokalani
P.S. I wrote the above because I
understood services was to be on
Sunday, but if before that then
it would be impossible ^for us to attend.

Notes:
1. A.O. Forbes - Anderson Oliver Forbes, born in Hawaiʻi, was a pastor at Kaluaʻaha and
then Kaumakapili Church. He was secretary of the Board of the Hawaiian Evangelical
Association at the time of this letter.
2. H.R.H. Princess Liliuokalani - Her Royal Highness Princess Liliʻuokalani was sister to
the sovereign, King David Kalākaua, and his designated heir at the time of this letter.
3. about 1887 - Either this letter was not dated or any dated covering went unpreserved. A
note in the top right corner in a different hand, likely an archivist's, suggests it might have
been penned “about 1887.”
