In the night of this past Tuesday, Mrs. Elizabeth J. Monsarrat left this life at her home on the corner of Union and Adams streets, the place she was born almost 88 years ago, and the place where she was married in 1852. She is the mother of the Monsarrat family.

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.

HUMAN LEG.–This past Monday, found was a human leg at Ainahou. It was floating in the ocean when it was noticed. When it was brought to shore, and examined, lo and behold, it was a human leg; it was said to be the leg of the Chinese person that was amputated by the Doctor and thrown into the sea. The bad thing about it is that it was thrown into the ocean where fishing is done. The person who threw it into the ocean should be punished. It is terrible, because some of the fish we eat comes from there; and it will decompose quickly. Perhaps they were too lazy to bury it. “Yes, my fingers will become filthy with dirt, and my nails will become sore from the exertion.”

MANY DEATHS.
On the 27th of November, three people died in the Pailolo Channel, that being the sea between Maui, Molokai, and Lanai. Six people went out to sea; three survived and three died; a woman was one of those who died. Here are the names of the dead: Kealiimahiai, Kahakauila, and Upai (a woman).
This is how they died. They sailed to Lanai from Lahaina to fish. They all went out to sea, got their fish, and returned. When they all returned to Lahaina, their canoe sank because of the stormy winds. They attempted to right the canoe, but it did not work. They left the canoe behind and swam; and three of them died. When their friends in Lahaina heard, there was much crying and grief.

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?
M. J. K.
