Tuesday last, the 16th, was the birthday of Her Highness, the Princess Kaiulani, the Heir to the Crown of Hawaii nei, and she has made twelve years old. We pray, being that the efforts behind our Nation are not over, that her life is extended until she inhales once again the comforting air of her homeland, and not in a position of ridicule by the shameless hairy-handed [lima huluhulu]¹ usurpers, but as one treasured by her people; and may God Almighty care for her always.

¹Biblical reference to Esau.
