Baptized.–This past Tuesday, the young daughter of the Lord Bishop [Staley] of Honolulu was baptized at the church at Peleula. The god parents of the child are the King, Queen Emma, Captain Hanham [Kapena Hanamu], and his wife; Miss Edith Staley; and the Governess of Hawaii [Keelikolani]. Because Queen Emma was travelling, her part was assumed by the wife of the British Commissioner, Mrs. Synge. The Lord Chamberlain D. Kalakaua, Penekaraka [Prendergast], W. P. Kamakau, and W. Makalena attended in their finery. The King, through the Lord Chamberlain gave the child the name Kaholomoana. The reason she was given that name, because she was born at the exact time the Queen boarded the ship to go on her trip to Britain. There was a large crowd gathered there, and among them we saw His Excellency the Minister of the Interior [Hutchison], and Lord Chancellor E. H. Allen. The Bishop himself baptized the young child.
