The Wilcox parry had camped
Tuesday night behind a Knoll on
the right side of the Pen. Here are
two small summer residences own
ed respectively by Wilcox and
Robert BOYD. The only food
of the rebels had been gre IN bana-
mas. They cooked these, the
prisoner said some men had one
and some had two. Wilcox did
not wear his regular costume, He
is in civilian dress.
Speculation began at once as to
who killed the dead man. The
Sharpshooters thought it was
either Lieutenant Dodge or L.
McCandless. Captain Smith
thought it was private Hoeneck,
one of his best shots. The man
had been killed instantly by a
bullet that entered one side Of his
head and passed clear through it..
The Kamehameha graduate told
how he was pressed into service.
He said he was out walking Sum
day afternoon in the park
when a native with whom he
had never associated, forced
him at the point of pistol to march
around Diamond head to the hos
tile camp. Here Wilcox and the
others were issuing arms and anti
milton. The foundry man had
never fired a gun in his life. He
was shown how to operate one OF
the light carbines. He went with
squad ofabout sixteen to Waialae.
They were near the beach there,
all of Monday. In the course OF
the day, they killed one of Paul
Isenberg's steers and had quite
feast. They took along a little
of the cooked meat, when at
night, an order was received by
them from Wilcox, to move to the
head OF Manoa. This took them
all of Tuesday. During the Moi.
liili battle they were near the beach
between Diamond Head and Wal
alae. On Tuesday they saw Com
pany A picking up arms on the
battle field of the day before. This
prisoner said that Wilcox planned
to make an assault upon the town,
precipitate a general riot every
where and use the dynamite boubs
to secure possession of the Govern
ment buildings. Wilcox assured
his men that there were plenty OF
the royalists in town who would
rise up and help them at the proper
time.
The other prisoner told about the
same story claiming also. to have
been forced into service. After
being closely questioned at military
headquarters, they were taken to
the station house.
The directors of the campaign
against the rebels now determined
to make every effort to close in OH
Wilcox and take him. A general
advance up Pauoa and Nuuanu
was ordered. Coyne and King
and Wilder moved forward beyond
Tantalus. Captain McStocker with
Judge Robertson as his Lieutenant
went up Nuuanu valley with sixty
of the Citizens Guard. They were
placed to intercept any rebels who
might possibly get through the
lines from Manoa. This detail
reached the front about clever
o'clock and was there until sever
this morning.
The Sharpshooters were sent VI
Pauoa early this morning. Com
