Celebration of the birthday of Queen Emma at the Queen’s Hospital, 1945.
Our Day
THE CALM SEAS OF KONA
KAHALA, Honolulu, January 5, 1945—The nurses and all the employees of The Queen’s Hospital gave a luau in the memory of the birthday of Queen Emma Kaleleonalani, on the grounds of the hospital. There were many people who were invited, and there were many who attended. We two [Evelyn Desha and Stephen Desha Jr.] were among the invited, and my companion [Mr. Desha] was invited to speak on the life of Queen Emma. There were many who entertained at that luau. Singing groups with their hula girls. Something that really made the two of us happy was our meeting and shaking hands with Admiral Nimitz, General Smith, and Governor Stainback. The ideas below are some that were spoken of by my friend on that afternoon.
Owana Wilcox Belliveau tries to break the will of Princess Pauahi, 1918.
FIGHTING OVER THE ESTATE OF PAUAHI
Honolulu, Dec. 29—Perhaps because the desire of Mrs. Owana Wilcox Belliveau for the estate of Queen Liliuokalani was not fulfilled, she is now trying to fight for the estate of the Chiefess Pauahi, and is looking for a way to break the Will because of her relationship with Chiefess Pauahi. Why does she keep trying to start this kind of thing? Continue reading
Eo, e Napelakapu! 1881.
[Found under: “NA NU HOU HAWAII.”]
On this day, Queen Kapiolani has made 46 years old, and they have been ruling this land for eight years. She has gone off from the royal court today, perhaps to enjoy the calm of Ehu [Kona, Hawaii], and we pray that her days are lengthened and their reign is blessed from here on.

John L. Stevens’ outrageous impudence, 1893.
HAWAII BELONGS TO THE HAWAIIANS.
The administration at Washington has the unqualified support of this magazine (The Illustrated American) in its course of conduct in the Hawaiian affair.In acknowledging the tremendous wrong committed by ex-Minister Stevens, while acting as the nation’s, representative at the Court of Queen Liliuokalani, President Cleveland and his Secretary of State have shown splendid courage and refreshing disdain of buncombe. All the facts in the case proves Stevens’ behavior while Minister at Honolulu to have been prompted by rank ignorance or complete disregard of right or decency. Stevens openly encouraged a portion of the Queen’s subjects in their preparations for rebellion and promised them every possible material assistance, the moment they furnished him with the shadow of an excuse for such a step.

Bernice A. Pauahi Bishop?
With the birthday of ka wahine hele la o Kaiona coming up tomorrow, I am still in search of what the initial “A.” stands for in her name. She is referred to a number of times as “B. A. Pauahi Bishop,” “A. Pauahi Bishop,” “A. Pauahi,” &c.
“A hua a pane, pane mai.”
A fire to celebrate the birthday of Kamehameha V? 1868.
Commotion-Inciting Fire.—The fire bells of Honolulu rang out in the evening of this past Friday, and off went the firemen; come to find out, the fire was the work of Miss Bingham folk. The large fire that they set was purportedly to honor the birthday of the King. If this was done with good intentions, why were the members of the fire department not informed prior to this? We saw in the P. C. A. paper a clarification of their apology to the fire department; Continue reading
