[Page 2 of 2] [Letter Cover] Na Bingham Translation: [Page 1 of 2] Greetings to you, my dear friend, Bingham, I have a message for you. Should I sign my name in this document? The document is from the stores that sell liquor and is actually about the days cash transactions are prohibited. J.W. Land says I should sign my name. I am thinking that if later on I stop the sale of liquor, what then? Take a look at whether this is right or wrong. Adams, Kuakini Fort Send me back a letter. �[Page 2 of 2] [Letter Cover] For Bingham Notes: 1. Adams Kuakini – John Adams Kiʻipalaokū Kuakini was an adviser of Kamehameha I and brother of Kamehameha's favorite wife, Kaʻahumanu. He became governor of Oʻahu and in his later years moved to Hawaiʻi Island. 2. Binaham – Rev. Hiram Bingham arrived with the first company of missionaries, serving as the first reverend at Kawaiahaʻo Church. 3. ka palapala o na hale kuailama - This reference to a petition or edict concerning the liquorselling establishments is unclear, as the letter is undated. 4. JW Land – The background of J.W. Land is unknown, but he appears to have talked with Kuakini concerning liquor sales prior to this letter to Bingham. 5. Papu – The Pāpū, or fort, mentioned in this letter might be the Honolulu Fort, where he resided as Commander in Chief, or could be the Kailua Fort in Kailua-Kona Hawaiʻi. Adams Kuakini moved to Hawaiʻi island during the mid-1830s and lived there until his death in Kailua-Kona in 1844. � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.
