The amazing cases of Sheriff Samuel Kaholookalani Pua, 1914.

SHERIFF SAMUEL K. PUA, THE FAMED DETECTIVE OF THE ISLAND OF KEAWE

HIS AMAZING WORK OVER THESE PAST YEARS

HIS ACCOMPLISHMENTS ARE A “PROUD LEI FOR THE PEOPLE TO WEAR FOR ALL TIMES.”

[This is the headline to an in-depth three-page story complete with pictures of the detective work of Sam K. Pua (10/27/1867–8/1/1932), as appears in the final issue of Hoku o Hawaii for 1914! I have yet to come across another story given that much coverage in one issue of a newspaper.

The issues of Hoku o Hawaii before 5/31/1917 are as of yet not available online.]
