Newman; Oct. 20. remember anot her
conversation with Crick about rifles
and ammunition being in our house;
there were three rifles and 1856
rounds of cartridges; Springfield,
Winchester and Sharp; they were
given to witness to take care Of; at
that time more definite plans were
discussed TO make preparations, so
that when the day came everybody
would be ready; the insurgents were
to be divided into four squads, un.
der different captains; the first
squad were to iutrench themselves
under the stone wall surrounding
the palace, aud pick oil the soldiers;
other places to be taken were: Cen
trail Union Church, Hawaiian Hotel,
Opera House, Kawaiahao Church;
that would prevent any attack in
the rear to those around the wall 1;
the natives would then assemble at
the street corners, and pIeYnt the
Citizens Guard from goiSsaA the
palace; smaller squads would sur
round the residences OF those men
toned; electric light and telephone
wires would he cut to prevent com.
munication; Crick informed him he
would bo captain OF the squad at
King aud Linha streets; from con
versatiou Crick was almost certain
the native police force would turn
over To them; the Schust zen Club
had divided then; although they
, would not render assistance they
would not object; the American
League was looked on with more
, suspicion; annexation being their
object they would like to see the
! restoration Of the monarchy.
