LEAVES HIS POST AS AGENT.
Mr. Solomon Hanohano, Aloha oe:—Due to me going partially blind, and not being able to hold properly a fountain pen [peni inika], I am therefore announcing to you, because of those reasons mentioned above, I am setting aside my position as agent for 20 years and more for the Nupepa Kuokoa, and also for the Aloha Aina and Alakai o Hawaii, with great appreciation for your (Kuokoa) and Aloha Aina‘s full trust in me, your humble servant, for these many days.
Me, with aloha,
JOHN TAYLOR UNEA.
