MARBLE HEADSTONES AT LOW COST

LIKE SLATE [PAPA?] HEADSTONES.

The person whose name appears at the bottom wishes to announce to the Hawaiian people that he has acquired material for Monuments and Tombstones which he wants to sell for a good price, from $8.00 up.

I can send images and prices of the tombstones to people on the other islands, should they ask me, so that it can be done without the large expense of travelling to Honolulu.

J. D. LANE.

Engraver of Marble Monuments of all types. Bethel Street, Honolulu.

[Found under: “LOCAL NEWS”]

The Kamehameha I Statue brought by the captain of the clipper ship Dalhousie [Earl of Dalhousie], and purchased by the Government, was set up on the Waikiki side of the grounds of the Government Building. A small structure was built and the statue stands within it. It is heard that the plan of the Managing Committee is that all the flaws be redone.
