days before by the royslists, and Of the
fight that was then being carried on in

Diamond Head, with telescopes. We
saw the men take deliberate aim at the
government troops and FIRE; we saw the
cannon ball strike right near some Of the
royalists, several OF them being killed.
Several men in town and one OF the
princes have been arrested for aiding the
royalists. No steamers are allowed to
come IN or 20 out Of port. Do not worry
about US. There are too many govern
ment men to lot anything happen us here
in town. Lots of people got scared aud
moved into town from here, Waikiki, but
We are safe here. We have no idea how
many were killed in the battle on our
side. When the natives we're driven
away from Diamond Head the govern
ment men found three dead royalists in
the crater. They had to steal away 10
the night to escape the troops. They sx-
pect every hour ito capture the leaders;
then the natives will be all right, for they
Just follow the leaders,"
