fuses TO acquiesce ia the conclusion
which his sense OF right ana
duty, and due regard for national
honor constrained him TO reach or sub
NIT as measure OF justice TO the peo-
Pile OF the Hawaiian Islands and their
deposed sovereign. While II is true
that the provisional government was
created to exist until the Islands
were annexed to the United
States, and that the queen final
ly but reluctantly surrendered to an
armed force OF this government ile-
gally quartered Ina Honolulu, and REQ

a different view Of his responsibility
