Knowledge Seeking Youths.

We received letters from the youths who traveled in search of knowledge. They are in the city of Cincinnati, State of Ohio, on the past 9th to the 16th of September. They tell of how their travels are going well, the beauty of everything, and their joy and that they are full of hope. We want to tell everything in full pertaining to these Hawaiian youths, but our paper is full, therefore wait for another when we receive letters from them again.

[These youths are Robert Wilcox, James Booth, and William Boyd.]

At 7:30 in the evening of this Sabbath at Hauhaukoi, Honolulu nei, born to the wife of Lieutenant Robert Waipa Parker, was a plump boy. The child was named Kawiwoole, because of the steadfastness of his father not to surrender the Palace on the day of the overthrow of the government [hookahuli aupuni] which R. W. Wilcox lazily dreamt up and was thwarted.

[Found under: “HAWAII NEWS”]

Albert Loomens is being banished, that Belgian who joined the rebellion with Wilcox and party on the 30th of July 1889; and he was tried and sentenced by jury on October of the same year for treason. His sentence was death but this was forgiven by the Privy Council [Ahakukamalu], and the death sentence was reduced to one year of hard labor on the condition that he leave this country at the end of this term. Therefore, on the afternoon of this Tuesday, he was sent aboard the Consuelo for San Francisco.
