/. ReS0t0cR, That an engrossed copy
hereof be presented 10 the United
States Minister Resident 10 Honolulu
for transmission to Washington, that
like copy be sent 10 the Governor
Of California, and another TO the
Mayor of the City Of San Francisco,
and another be presented TO Rear
Admiral Brown on behalf Of His late
Mujesty's grateful subjects and
friends.
! Mr.. Castle stated that the chair.
man desired him TO say that the sub
| ject matter Of both resolutions was
before the meeting and he hoped that
all who wished would express them
selves freely and BETTING the occa-
sion.
Mr.. j. Haole thought there should
be separate resolution for each OF
the queens.
Hon. Mr.. Kahookano believed that
the resolutions were in accordance
with the instructions given to the
committee, and he moved that they
be adopted as read.
Mr.. KahauIelio approved of the
resolutions so far as they went, but
thought they should contain direct
thanks to the President of the United
States.
Mr.. Kalua considered the resoIu-
ti0ns covered all the ground desired.
A copy OF the second resolution to
the American Minister, and one each
Of the first to the two queens, would
effectually meet the case. Why
should letter OF telegram be sent
direct to President Harrison when
his administration has Minister
Resident to represent it? He did not
wish to play the sycophant to for
eign residents, when he said that the
conduct Of the United States toward
our lamented sovereign was unexam-
pied in its kindness. BY reason Of
this incident he foresaw that Hawaii
would be closer allied to America in
the near future. The resolutions
should be adopted as a whole.
Hon. Mr.. Kaulukou said the cOun-
try owed debt Of gratitude to the
memory of the late King beyond his
power TO express. 1t was his earnest
hope that the resolutions should be
adopted without any change and
without further discussion.
Mr.. David Malo spoke in native
and English, crtcisiug the reference
to reciprocity, which he regarded as
unbecoming in resolutions Of condo
lence. His remarks were treated as
humorous by the audience.
Mr.. Makahaupa made a verbal
criticism on the native version.
The resolutions were then passed
without dissent on show Of hands
with applause.
On motion Of Mr.. Kahookano the
committee was discharged, and of
several motions one prevailed to have
a committee Of seventeen appointed
by the chair, to include the chair
man, for the purpose Of presenting
engrossed copies Of the resolutions
TO the respective parties therein
named.
AS the chairman desired time to
select the committee, the meeting
adjourned, after which Hon. Mr..
Kanoa appointed the following as the
presentation committee:
