Kaluaikoolau addresses the Provisional Government, 1893.

Hero of the Koolau Cliffs.

A letter has reached us, speaking of the displeasure of the Hero of the jagged Koolau cliffs hearing the boasts by some about him, and his response being, “I will challenge them even if there be hundreds of soldiers of the new government, if they want to try to capture me again. I will send fiery bullets through each of their heads.” The letter was written on the 10th of December from the island of Kauai.
