Here is what she told me to present to you in writing. Give her raw flour - perhaps a whole barrel or a portion thereof, or perhaps a single bucket, whichever of those you think proper to give. If you are to give her one of those things, you should perhaps notify her in writing of the appropriate payments in your opinion, for her to help out with whatever is given to her. That is what I am saying, but it is up to you. From me, John Ii Halekauila December 28, 1837 [Page 2 of 2] [Letter Cover] John Ii December 28, 1837 L. Chamberlain Notes: 1.

Honolulu Oahu Translation: [Page 1 of 4] Luaehu, April 6, 1843. Greetings to the two of you, Mr. and Mrs. Cooke, and to the girls and Sarai, We landed here in Lahaina yesterday, Wednesday, at four in the afternoon. Because of the fair winds, the boys did not suffer; Lota was the only boy weak from vomiting, and recovery was quick upon reaching the shore. The men's strong paddling was one of the reasons for arriving quickly. From morning time on they paddled that day until we neared our anchorage. All the canoes were already at hand and took all of us, the boys, Dr. Judd and Kekūanāoʻa. We saw Auhea and [Page 2 of 4] Kuakini, who both give their greetings to the two of you and all the girls. The king has not reached during these days; he is in Wailuku and may or may not arrive tomorrow. This Sabbath day is up to me, and the work begins. We slept here in Luaehu last night along with Dr. Judd, and he and I talked with Auhea about how we should go inland, and for Judd to stay with her; and that seems to be what was decided. Auhea and I went up there this morning to put things in order and the boys came up too. By 10 am, all of us, the boys and Dr. Judd, mounted horses, and we rode to Lahainaluna for the presentation. We returned in the evening [Page 3 of 4] before dinner. Dr. Judd went to Mr. Baldwin’s place for the foreigner's meeting to abolish liquor. At nine, he returned. At that meeting, there were twenty foreigners as well as the officer of the ship. They are liquor abolitionists. Many whaling ships are anchored here these days. There are perhaps thirty ships anchored, and the rest are coming, according to what we saw of the ships between yesterday and today. The nature of the boys at this time is not clear enough for me to report to you their rights and wrongs.

Cooke Honolulu Oahu [Page 1 of 2, right side] Wainee, April 10, 1843. Greetings to you two, Mr. and Mrs. Cooke, Because we are apart these days, unable to converse one mouth to another, it is necessary to clarify by letter the various aspects of our stay. Because of that, I am informing you about us and the boys of ours. From the first day of our stay here until now, it has been as it is when we all stay together, either there or here. They do not resist, and they are not a burden; our stay here is pleasant. The domicile is peaceful, staying here at the house and going [Page 2 of 2, left side] to the ocean to swim last Saturday, horseback riding that evening, and going to church yesterday. The boys went to English-language services twice, all of us in the morning and then just Dr. Judd and the four boys went again. And that night we sailed to the ship, the four boys and the two of us. Dr. Judd took over Sunday School. We saw someone talking with Dr. Judd, possible help for all of us, however it was not clear. Maybe Mose has written to you two about this. We miss you folks very much and pray to God on your behalf, to help you folks and us as well. Much affection to the two of you and the young [Page 2 of 2, right side] girls, Pauahi Loeau Maheha Kekaaniau Emma Kamamalu Kamakaeha and Sarai. From John Ii Notes: 1. Mi.

Cooke, I received your letter on the evening of the 10th after my second letter to you. I set forth in that letter the character of our living here, perhaps not known to you. I declared in that letter the peace of our government, because there is no hindrance to us and the children. According to the instructions you gave me, so have we done. The little children have gone to bed at seven or eight at times and the larger children at nine oclock. They have not read much at this time. The little children awaken in the morning before 6 and the older children later and in a half hour is our family prayers. This morning they read Psalms 97. After prayers, at 7:30 breakfast was prepared and after breakfast there was a period for play until 10 a.m., when the four children went with me to the Legislature and I placed Manaku in charge of the little children because of the illness of Kinimaka, but he has come here today, perhaps in good health. �[Page 6 of 7] J Ii to CookeApr. 12, 1843 p.2 2. After lunch, there is more play and at four oclock there is horseback riding every day until 6. There are two days for bathing a week, on Wednesday and Saturday at 3 p.m. and at 1 p.m. and 2 p.m. boating if we have boats. They have not read much of the papers which you gave; this is their greatest lack. Peter was in trouble yesterdy seizing the rope of the horse behind and being pulled by the horse and falling down, hitting his left eyebrow in a dirt mound, perhaps a stone. On our returning from Luaehu we saw it was painful and I reported it to Dr. Judd and he gave him some gum and it is now all right. We are very happy that Mrs. Cooke is resting a little. The children send love to her and to you, but they do not write to you and the girls, something evident to you. I am very desirous that you write a letter about the activities which we thought about formerly, like you reported to me, that I may be clear in my mind the right time to speak [Page 7 of 7] to the parents. But you have reported and perhaps it is stopped, but it its up to you. Because love is more valuable than everything else, I remember you ^all with love, all the girls, Mrs. Cooke and Joseph and Martha, Sarah and Victoria. Much love, John Ii �Translation: [Page 1 of 7] Wainee April 12, 1843 Greetings to you, Amos S. Cooke, I received your letter in the evening of the 10th, after my second letter to you. I explained in that letter how we are doing here, which might not have been clear. I told in that letter about the peacefulness of our domain, for nothing hinders us or the children. Just as you have instructed me, that is what we are doing. The younger boys sleep at eight, sometimes at seven. Nine is when the older boys sleep, however they sometimes do not read much at that point. In the mornings the younger boys wake before six o'clock while the older boys wake up after them, and at half-past is when we do devotions. This morning they reached Psalms 97 in the reading. We [Page 2 of 7] finish our prayer at half-past seven, if food is not ready before then. After eating, it is playtime. At 10, the four boys go with me to the legislature and I leave the younger boys with Manaku, due to the illness of Kinimaka, though he came today, perhaps having recovered. After lunch they play again, and at four in the afternoon, they ride horseback. That is how the afternoons are spent all six days. There are two swimming days of the week, Wednesday and Saturday at three o’clock. At one and two, we go boating and paddling when we have boats to use. They do not often read the papers you have given, that is one of their shortcomings. Peter had a slight accident yesterday, having seized the rope of a horse from behind and being pulled by the horse until he fell. He hit his left eyebrow against a clod of dirt or a rock. When we returned from Luaehu, we [Page 3 of 7] realized he was hurt. I told Dr. Judd, and he gave me a plaster, and it might be done. We were very pleased Mrs. Cooke got some rest. Her boys care greatly for her and for you, but the fact that they do not write many letters to the two of you and the girls should make it clear to you all why I offer reports. I would like for you to write in a letter about the activities that we considered previously, like that which you shared with me, so I may know the appropriate time to speak with the parents. But you have recently expressed that it may be cancelled, but it is your decision. Because love is the most valuable of all riches, I am lovingly remembering all of you, the girls, Mrs. Cooke, Iosepa, Mareta, Sarai and Victoria.

Halekula lii Honolulu Translation: [Page 1 of 4] Luaehu June 12, 1845 Greetings to you all, Mr.Cooke and company, Someone told me yesterday that Koana had informed him about the things that you folks had told him to report to me, but the two of us did not meet in person before they all left last Friday night. I regret not having seen them. But when someone told that your situation is good, I was happy at that, since nothing has troubled you during those days that have now passed. That is due to the benevolence of the Lord, or so deems [Page 2 of 4] my heart. And as for our existence here, it is equally comfortable, though our king, Kamehameha III, is ill, with an ache in the right foot, a pounding in the head, and swelling in the knee. These were treated by the doctor of the warship, who is now going back. He did not receive what he wanted; not one thing that he thought he would get did he acquire. He left empty handed. The way I see it, the one thing he got was entry into house after house, day after day, his coming here and his leaving. We have just gotten word that he will take Leleiōhoku and settle him at Dr. Judd's place, to join them. This not by the king, but by his own plan. Dr. Judd has the king’s letter, you will likely hear from him. [Page 3 of 4] He is angry at Dr. Judd, Baldwin and the missionaries, or so I hear from some folks here. The chiefs have no concerns regarding the statement about Ha’alilio and how an American ridiculed him as a trifle, according to them. Because they are happy at this point, and also troubled by G. Paulet, that is all. I am not sure when I will return. Regards to you all, From John ʻĪʻī [Page 4 of 4] [Letter Cover] John Ii 1843 Lahaina June 12th Recd 13th ans For Amos S. Cooke and company.

Greetings to you all, Amos S. Cooke and Mrs. Cooke, and to all of our children, and our beloved fellow worker, Mr. Sturges. I am very pleased at receiving the letters from you and Sarai today off the ship Keoua. Captain Kaina gave them to me. I looked your letter over from the top to bottom of the message. And what you folks have heard there concerning the letters and the works of the leaders, Richards and the others, is the same as what we have heard. Baldwin is a bit uncertain about the chiefs, because of a statement made to Haalilio by one of the servants of the steamship on which those two sailed. It was translated into English by Lord G. Paulet from a French newspaper that came from Spain, and Baldwin translated it into Hawaiian. The chiefs do not pay mind to it; they are happy about Richards' counsel on those things. They are happy at hearing that it progressed and that the work of those two among the great nations is nearing success. I am happy as well about the king’s steadiness concerning the intentions of that warship commander, Paulet. [Page 2 of 4] [Letter Cover] John Ii, Lahaina June 16, 1843 Rec’d 17th ans To Mr. Amos S. Cooke and company Chiefs’ School Honolulu [Page 3 of 4] If he is equally determined against all temptations, then my heart is glad. The king was happy to hear the thoughts of the United States’ President. �I approve of the children’s anger towards that dark flag, for that is how I feel when I look at Lord G. Paulet. Some may have made his acquaintenance, but I did not meet him while he was anchored here. When he first met with the king, I was in distress, and when the king sailed out to the ship, I was sad and my food had no taste. Then when the king returned from the ship and I heard the actions of those on board, my sadness was over. That is how I felt when he started to meet at the king's place to demand his wishes for the king to fulfill. Therefore, I wrote to the king about the messages in Proverbs 7, 2, 5, and the king prevailed because he attained none of his wishes. I did not meet with the chiefs at this point, because of the short time before the ship sailed to you folks. But I quickly asked Kapena, the secretary, concerning our [Page 4 of 4] actions that you had indicated to discuss with the chiefs. He said the Minister, Mr. Judd should address those things. But I will investigate that here in the coming days. There is this too, that Mr. Kekina has repeatedly asked me about my stay and the work that brought me to stay here during these days. Contemplating those repeated questions, he seems uncertain as to why I am staying here, and he perhaps thinks that I and my work here are to help the king. That may be what he thinks and if it is, that is up to him. The chiefs seem comfortable when I observe or speak with them, but I do not know their insides. I am waiting for a message from my friend and then I will know when to return. Because one thought is to stay here until the French warship comes, but that might not be appropriate. From me, your fellow laborer Ioane Ii Notes: 1. Amosa S. Cooke - Amos Starr Cooke was selected to become the headmaster of the Chiefs' Children's School in the Kingdom of Hawai‘i. 2. Mr. Sturges - Mr. Sturges is possibly Albert A. Sturges, a missionary. 3. Sarai - Sarai was the wife of John Papa ‘Ī‘ī , assisting at the Chiefs' Children's School at the time of this letter. 4. Kapena Kaina - Captain Kaina was the captain of the ship Keoua when this letter was written. 5.
