We are saddened to hear of the death of Mrs. Maraea Brown, on the second of this month, at Hilo. She was ill for a lengthy six months, until the day she died. This is a woman familiar to those of this town from the time she lived here with her first husband, the Alii, John Ii; and familiar to Hilo people because of her new husband, John T. Brown. She was 30 or so years old.
At the band assembly given at Emma Square [Ema Kuea] on this past Saturday Monday, it was David Naope Naone who whirled the conductor’s baton [ka laau alakai himeni] with great deft. It is indeed a task that Hawaiians can do.

O Hawaiians, do not approach at all areas where the land thieves are meeting, for their deeds are evil and filthy; let them be and bring shame upon themselves.

For Hawaiian women’s lei palaoa, or boar tusk, or perhaps elephant ivory fashioned into stick pins, they can certainly be cleaned with turpentine [aila hoomaloo], and dried out in the sun for two or three days; and its shine will be like a new one.

Ahuula, the father, the son of Keawe, the King of Hawaii; and Kaupekamoku, the mother. Kaiana sailed for Kauai and his brothers stayed on Kauai, they being Namakeha and Nahiolea.
When Kaiana stopped at Hawaii, he met with Kamehameha, and Kamehameha made Kaiana one of his favorites (as is usual of Kamehameha, who cherished all of the living). Kaiana gave Kamehameha many rifles and cannons. Kamehameha held back Kaiana to remain on Hawaii, saying:

On this return of Kaiana from China, the ship did not stop here in Hawaii first, but past all the shores of America, and there the ship went trading for a long period; so all of the animals that were given him died. On the ship’s sail to Hawaii, they heard of Kaeo’s bad intentions toward him, so they sailed all the way and arrived at Hana, Maui on December 6, 1788 and from there they arrived at Kealakekua.

There were a great many ships from other lands that stopped here in Hawaii from 1786 to 1790, the year that Kamehameha traveled to war with Maui.
In the month of August 1786, the ship Nootka, commanded by captain Meares, stopped here. And this is the ship that took Kaiana to Kahiki, that being Canton, China. It is said that there were three Hawaiians who traveled with Kaiana on this journey to China, to the city of Canton. It was reported that when Kaiana folks were in the city of Canton, they were welcomed by the British who were living there.
