Baldwin
Greetings to you,
The two houses of the Legislature are at work. 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. The closure is not clear, now being almost
into June.
Baldwin
Me, with regard,
May 6, 1853
