quest, she was too weak TO act. She had never
named Kaaoaopa to him as her intended devisee.
Both Puhalahua and Nakuapa were heard at various
times 10 speak of the child as their "hoiliRG," a
word meaning "heir' or "devisee." One witness
said they called her so the time of the original
adoption. On the other hand, many persons con-
nected by blood and marriage, an intimate terms
with the parties, testified that they had been
aware Of the ehild's adoption heir, or that she
was regarded BY the adopters as their heir To this
evidence the claimants counsel strongly objected
of a negative hearsay nature incompetent to rebut
evidence of adoption, but the Court admitted it
on the ground that no adoption of an heir can be
recognized valid unless it be shown that it was
made with sufficient clearness and publicity among
the kindred and family friends TO make them aware
of it.
1t docs not seem to me that the claimant has
shown her adoption as the heir of Nakuapa under
the rules of law already laid down by this Court.
am not satisfied of the fact on all the evidence in
her favor All the objections to oral wills apply with
full force in this class of cases. for memory is often
at fault in regard to declarations made many years
ago; and such declarations, unless confirmed in am
pie manner unsatisfactory for the the purpose of
showing so solemn act as the adoption of heir
incompetent under the Act which requires a written
agreement of adoption. If such evidence were ad-
missible the Statute it would certainly be
as likely TO show mere promise held out, or an in
tention never carried into effect to explain pre-
vious act Puhalahua's will, made in 1854, shows
that he early of the Importance of making
a will; SO was Nakuapa, as shown BY her attorney,
Mr.. Austin
The Court held, as the evidence shows, that the
adoption OF az heir must be shown by circumstances
of notoriety among the kindred and family circle of
the parties The objection to this evidence does not
seem TO me to be valid The relation sought to be
established is not the ordinary of pedigree, but
is one unknown to English and American law. Un-
der that law, evidence of family conduct and of
kindred is admitted. Berkely Peerage case, Camp,

Whatever the grounds OF the English rule, whether
it be that such evidence is in the nature Of admissions
against evidence, part of the gestde, or confrma
tory of facts otherwise shown, in this this evil
dence is admitted on the broad ground that the
requisite publicity is portion of the case TO be
proved In private bilateral triIatera contract,

to it would be negative and incompetent; but it is
material in this case, which requires such knowl
edge to be shown in order to its validity.
