Previous 10 the visit Of hoholopapa
and her husband To koolau's cave
they were instructed 10 inform the
outlaw, IL they saw him, that lie
would not be Killed, but ON the con-
trary, he would I've protected until his
arrival in Honolulu, where the courts
would deal with him.
| Larsen made this promise, but he
would never have been able 90 carry
IL out, as the outlaw would certainly
have been shot 10y the soldier boys in

The boys cannot forget that two Of

their feeling OF vengeance is pardon

| Everybody Was called this morning
AT / O'Clock, and after breakfast the
/ tents were struck and everything got
| In reSdying for the removal 10 the
| beach. At daybreak the pack animals
arrived in charge of the natives. They
We're heavily laden, although each
member OF the party carried his per
| sonal effects. At \. VI. everything
was landed on the beach.
Not knowing anything of the move
ments of the steamers, Larsen decided
To carry the party To Wainiha valley
in two whaieboats. This plan WAS
adopted 10 save a days time, which
would be utilized in assisting the
Reynolds party 10 capture the lepers
who are said To be located In the val
ley named.
the party finally put OF with four
teen men in each boat. Lieut., King,
Sergeant Pratt and six Others were
left behind To wait until boat was
returned for them. The voyage Of the
first party is described rs being
stormy one, rs the wind was strong
and a heavy sea was running. AT one
time il was thought that both boats |
would be swamped, but fortunately |
no accident happened. The party was /
unable 10 put in at Wainiha, SO /
About z. NJ. King and his party /
arrived. Tents We're put up, and
every body was made as comfortable as [
possible. There wers' four men on the /
sick liSt-three suffering from u fever
brought on by exposure, and the
fourth ran nail in his foot. Among
the invaliiS is "Dick" Taylor, one of
the policemen. He brought camera
with him, and when he was not on
70 u f,,gs In,
valley and took pictures. He has n
collection of views which will give
the public of Honolulu a better idea
of this valley than any written DIES
criptiou can. The valley is OF horse
shoe shape, and is surrounded with
walls which appear 10 be perpendicu
lar in places. 1t appears TO be spot
blessed by nature, ,ts the foliage is
thick and healthy looking. Looking
from a hill near the seashore, the bot
tom lands appear TO be one vast taro
patch. The natives here are very in
and derive their living from
the sale OF taro, which is marketed ut
Mana and other convenient points. 1t
seldom rains during the summer
but downpours at this place
appear TO be superfluous, aS one large
stream runs through the valley aud
down to the sea. This stream, which
is a strong one, has its source ut the
head of the valley. Smaller streams
and springs are abundant, and as q
result everything thrives in remark
able degree. The natives raise vege-
tables and plentiful crop of melons
in addition TO taro. Guavas can be
found at every turn, and wild bananas
are very common. The valley Is we'll
stocked with horses and cattle, and
may aida large number of NANCY
ours. At the head of the valley, where
koolau's stronghold is, it Is nothing
but n wilderness. In places the sun
light cannot be seen, so dense is the
growth of brush and trees. This forest
bad 10 be entered and explored by the
soldiers before Koolau's hiding place
was discovered.
As previously mentioned, G. Is.
Reynolds and party of six soldiers
left on the Iwalani for Hanalei for the
purpose of rounding up the lepers in
hat vicinity. The party landed early ,
in the morning, and headqu rters
we're made ut the comfortable home of
Deputy Sheriff Deverill. During the
lay Reynolds accompanied by Dew ]
GRILL visited every house in the place {
formed by the natives that the objects | {
If their search had left Hanalei and
mad gone they knew not where. Rey- {
holds knew that the natives were
wing, so he gave them until noon to- !
lay TO surrender the lepers. They
we're threatened with punishment
md loss of their property if they did ,
not respond.
The natives listened to the threat,
ind then went to their homes to think
{ over. Some of the men were trifle
mpudent when spoken TO as they re- .
orted: ''1f you want the lepers, go and ;
ind them" Finally one of the ma {
ives was locked in Jail for several !
hours to see what effect it would have '
IN his mind. The prisoner begged to '
De released, and said he would hunt {
Up one of his relations who is leper. {
he was allowed to 60, and not strange +
% relate he forgot to return. Later in I
he day another fresh native was in
because he refused to reveal =
he wherea bouts of his son. {
The soldier boys camped at the l
known as the court house. y
lag was hoisted, and the camp was {
Camp Reynolds" by the t
Boys.
Early this morning Officer James /
Xauhane was sent out on an {
Exploring expedition. He re- 5
