THIS IS THE NEW BUILDING OF THE “SECRET SOCIETY I. O. O. F.” [“HUI MALU I. O. O. F.”] BEING BUILT A LITTLE MAUKA OF THE CORNER OF KING AND FORT STREETS, ON THE EWA SIDE. IT WAS THIS ORGANIZATION THAT HAD THE FIRST BRICK BUILDING BUILT IN HAWAII AT ITS ESTABLISHMENT IN THIS ARCHIPELAGO, THE REASON WHY THE NAME “SECRET SOCIETY” [“HUI MU”] BECAME FAMOUS AMONGST THE HAWAIIANS.

The other week we reported on the death of David Kahalepouli Piikoi at Kapaa, Kauai, on the 18th of October past, and this week, we are showing how he figures into the Royal line of Haloa gone by.
He is a man closely related by blood to Kamehameha IV and Kamehameha V, and Lunalilo I who recently passed on, and this is his relationship.
Kamehemeha IV and Kamehameha V,
Keawepoepoe (m) dwelt with Kumaiku (w), born was Keaumoku (m), Alapai (m), Kaulunae (f).
Keaumoku (m) dwelt with Namahana (f), born was Kuakini (m), Kaahumanu 1 (f), Kaheiheimalie (f), Kahekili (k), Kekuaipiia (k), Kuakini (lame) (m).
Kaheiheimalie (f) dwelt with Kamehameha I, born was Kinau (f).
Kinau (f) dwelt with Kekuanaoa (m), born were Kamehameha IV and V.
Pertaining to Lunalilo I.
Kaheiheimalie (f) dwelt with Kalaimamahu, born was Kekauluohi (f); Kekauluohi with Kanaina, born was Lunalilo I.
Pertaining to David Kahalepouli Piikoi.
Alapai (m) dwelt with Kamokuiki (f), born was Kekahili (f); Kekahili dwelt with Piikoi, born was Kahalepouli.
It is through Keawepoepoe that this man, Kahalepouli, is related to Kalakaua I and Keelikolani; and through Kumaiku, the wahine of Keawepoepoe, his blood is part of Keelikolani; and by way of his grandmother Kamokuiki, his blood is then part of the Royal Family currently on the throne.
His kanikau was sent to us, but because this issue is very full, we will put it aside temporarily until next week.
He has a royal wife, Kekaulike Kinoiki, the younger sister of the Queen, along with the three children, Davida Kawananakoa, Ed Keliiahonui, and Kuhio, who mourn over his remains.
We have published this because of our regret that all of the royal descendants are leaving, and our minds are somewhat relieved [kanahai] to know that he has children who are currently alive. Our deep felt aloha goes to those in mourning.

The names above, are the Hawaiian sailors aboard the ships mentioned above, that were pirated by the Shenandoah in 1865.
Those who received the aforementioned money, should not come again—as for those who did not receive the money, they must come at once to my office in Honolulu.
Should one of these people have died, then relatives or heirs should come.

Fishing women.—The girls of this area [Pueopaku, Hilo], go fishing often for oopu with small arched nets at the river in the daytime, and at night they go down to pick the famous wi of Hilo. They head down to Papaikou Plantation to sell them, and they come into the cry of the turkey [palahu].¹
¹Whereas the cry of the nene, “unele, unele,” is associated with lacking, the cry of the turkey, “pokeokeo,” is associated with riches.

NUMBER 5.
Nene Bird.
The Nene is a bird from the high uplands, and it is a big bird; it resembles a Turkey [Pelehu] and it is that height, its legs are long, and its toes are flat, its neck is nicely slim, its head is small, its eyes are like the eyes of a Chicken [Moa], its beak is short, it has a fine loud voice, and its call sounds like, “unele, unele, unele.”
It is said in the old Hawaiian stories, that the Nene and the Fly [Nalo] were deprived of their wealth, and that is why the Nene cries in that manner, “unele, unele” [“without, without”] and the Nalo chose its place to live as Kapalapilau [“Rotting dab of excreta”], and that is still what they do.
The Nene does not eat Rats [Iole] and other things like the Hawk [Io], and the Owl [Pueo], it only eats leaves of vegetation and flowers of grasses. Continue reading
Last week, two men living and working at the Kilauea National Park came to Honokaa School, their names being Gunther Olsen and friend. The school was filled with its 496 students from 1st grade to 6th, to see pictures of the mountains of this island. Olsen described the different birds while his companion showed pictures of the birds on a white cloth. Truly beautiful were the pictures of the mamo, O-o, Elepaio, Iiwi, Apapane, and so forth. The names of the birds of ours were clearly pronounced in Hawaii by that man.
According what was said by this man, in Keaau is being cared for at the home of Herbert Shipman, NENE birds, which are believed to be going extinct, but they are increasing. Our birds were much more beautiful in the olden days before other birds were imported from all over, the birds that are a problem for the crops growing in our gardens. They eat flowers of the peppers [nioi], and that is why the nioi doesn’t fruit as they did in years past.
After the pictures of the birds were shown, pictures were shown of the burning fires of Pele atop Mokuaweoweo last year. These men climbed up Mokuaweoweo on horseback and when they reached a certain point, the horses were left and they went on foot until the crater. Where they were was scorching. While the fires were boiling, snow was seen on both sides covering the ground. Continue reading
Before a crowd of spectators estimated to number between twelve and thirteen thousand, the football teams of Kamehameha and Sana Lui stood upon the battlefield for the championship of the year, in the afternoon of this past Saturday, on the Kamehameha School field, without there being a victor between those teams; they were tied with no score on either side.
This game between the two teams were one of the most fierce seen in Honolulu nei, filled with emotion; and there were many behind each team, and the worry of a great many spectator was relieved because neither side took the victory for themselves. Continue reading
