The picture was taken of the Committee who delivered the Memoriala of the Hawaiian Nation and placed it before the Honorable James H. Blount (Balana) on the 1st of April, 1883 totaling 19 members. Should there be anyone who wants a copy of this, go to the Office of Ka Leo o ka Lahui and ask John Kapamawaho Prendergast for the cost to purchase an image and he will tell you.
[Anybody know if there is a copy of this somewhere?]
(Leo o ka Lahui, 4/25/1893, p. 3)

I’m almost certain that this is the famous picture of the Hui Aloha ‘Āina Men’s Branch, Nāwahī, Bush, and many others in it, that you’ll find in Tom Coffman’s Nation Within (p. 132), or Noenoe Silva’s Aloha Betrayed (p. 130). (Sorry, couldn’t find a copy through a quick search on the internet.) I counted the men–19.
