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.

Words of Alapaki Kauka
Here are some statements made by A. F. Judd at the Armory on 25 November 1893: “Either we work together or we will hang one by one.”
We ask A. F. Judd: “Will your working together save you all from hanging one by one because of your treason?”
We assure you, O A. F. Judd, that Queen Liliuokalani will indeed be reinstated in these coming days: “Can you show us reasons why this belief of ours lacks truth?”
Is it not true that you and your people know the clear reason for you all being terminated in the Provisional Government? Why have you falsely announced in the Kuokoa that the Queen will not be returned?

William Saffery Wond (Bila Wanu) has been terminated as the Deputy Sheriff of Ewa for restricting the officers of Ewa from signing their names to the Annexation petition.

Fired with no Cause.
On this past 31st of December, William Wond (Bila Wanu) received from Marshal Hitchcock [Ilamuku Hikikoki] a document written on the 30th of that month, announcing that his position as deputy sheriff of the district of Ewa would be terminated, and Anakalea Kauhi would be appointed in his stead. He is to surrender all equipment related to law enforcement into the hands of Kauhi on the first of the year.
Wond was astonished that the Marshal did not make known his intent to terminate him days before. We say that in this the Marshal of the P. G. Government is very childish, and this is a cowardly act, the firing of someone without daring to call the man to meet face to face, and to reveal at that time the intent to terminate him.
Hitchcock nonetheless boasts that he tries to do the right thing in all he does. Is this the right thing you did, Marshal Hitchcock?
[It is interesting to note that the Hawaiian Gazette of 1/2/1894, p. 11, reports: “A. Kauhi has been appointed deputy sheriff of Ewa, in place of William Wond, resigned.”]

Hawaiian patriots of Hanalei, Kauai were brought suit against by the Census Taker and Tax Collector of the district of Hanalei, Kauai; and they were fined by the court. The two agreed to do go and do road work. The reason they went to do road work was not because they didn’t have the money, but it was because they did not want even a bit of their money going to help the Peacock Government. These Hawaiians have great steadfastness and true patriotism. The reason that F. K. Nanui, Jr. was quickly prosecuted because he was instructing people not to pay their taxes to this government.

Letters from the Islands to August 5, furnish some additional particulars relating to the restoration of the native government.—The doings of Lord Paulet’s Provisional Government were outrageous, and compelled the retirement of Dr. Judd from all participation in it. The following letter is from the Boston Daily Advertiser:
U. S. Ship Constellation,
Off Honolulu, Sandwich Islands, Aug. 1843.
It is probably known in the United States that in February last, his Lordship Captain George Paulet, of Her Majesty’s ship Carysfort, visit these Islands; and after urging upon King Kamehameha III., in succession, various demands, with many of which it was found impossible to comply, an making preparations to fire upon the city of Honolulu, compelled a cession of the Sovereignty to the Queen of Great Britain, and appointed a Commission of four, of which his Majesty or his deputy were permitted to be a member, for the provisional government of the Island, until her Majesty’s pleasure should be made known; which time the “existing laws, and those made at the ensuing council of the King and chiefs” were to continue in full force so far as natives were concerned,” and to for the basis of the administration of justice by the Commission between foreigns residents on these Islands, and all existing engagements of the King were to be executed and performed as if the cession had never been made.” Continue reading
