AN INDEPENDENT PERSON.
A person who is independent knows not of currying favors. A person who is independent will always have pride in themselves.
A person who is independent, when they hear their Alii or Nation being maligned, they would be cowardly and fearful should they not stand up to those words and actions.
(Hawaii Holomua, 1/28/1893, p. 3)
