No William Pitt Leleiohoku Kalahoolewa o Kaleiopapa.

He inoa keia e Hoku—e,
Pua lei aloha a Anoiu—e,
Nani wale kuu ipo Anolani—e,
Ua nohi uli wale i ka la—e,
Ka maka mohala o ka lehua—e,
Ka nonohi ukulii o ka pua—e,
I pu-a i ka uka o Malama—e,
Ahi awela no Heeia—e,
Kohaihai pua i ka uka—e,
O ke oho laulii o ke koa—e,
Maholehole wale oia la—e,
Ka awihi lihilihi a ka maka—e,
O ka maka kai ike hauna wale—e,
O no no e ka puu kuhikuhi—e,
I ka wai ohelo ohelo—e,
O ka ua noe ia i ka poli—e,
E halia mai nei ke aloha—e,
Aulii oiala oiala—e,
Ka hiwahiwa a loko e piana—e,
Kuu kihei pili mae ole—e,
He aloha—e kaua—e.

20th birthday of Prince Leleiohoku, 1875.

Birthday of the Heir Apparent.

On this coming Sunday, the 10th of January, that is the birthday of Prince W. P. Leleiohoku, and it will be the twentieth year of his life. He was born on the 10th of January, 1855, on the day of the funeral of King Kauikeaouli, and for that reason he was named Kalahoolewa. From what we hear, that day will be celebrated as a holiday [la kulaia]; however, because it falls on the Sabbath, the celebration will be postponed until Monday, that being the 11th of January of this year; and this will be the first time that his birthday will be widely celebrated, as we respectfully give commemoration to the Heir Apparent in place of his Elder Brother Monarch who has left for foreign lands. With feelings of hope, we wish that the holiday will be celebrated all over the nation suitably.

E kiai ma ka Ri-no
Kupaa a kuo-o!

TANDY MACKENZIE RETURNS TO HAWAII NEI WITH HIS WIFE

With the landing of the steamship Montery in town, Tandy Mackenzie, the famous singer, came home accompanied by his wife to spend a month on vacation before returning back to America and perhaps going all the way to Italy.

The successful singing performances given by Tandy Mackinzie at theaters in California boosted his singing popularity.

While here in town, they will be staying at the Royal Hawaiian Hotel, and before the couple goes back to America, his friends here want him to put on a concert so that people here have a chance to hear his beautiful singing voice.

[Check out this nice biography found on the Kamehameha Schools Archives page! They have some pretty cool information up about the history of Kamehameha Schools and its graduates if you do some clicking around.]
