the light. After leaving that port, the
glow of fire rejecting upon the over
hanging cloud was plainly visible all
night, and on arrival at kawaihaa at
+ a. m. the 25th, we were treated to
fine view of the mountains of Hawaii,
with Mauna Loa in the middle Of the
group, and it's fire fountains lighting up
the heavens above. The atmosphere
was beautifully clear at that time, and
the only visible cloud was the one hang
ing over Mauna Loa at an elevation of
perhaps 10000 feet above the summit.
Soon after leaving Kawaihae at day
light the passengers on the kfnau lost
sight of the mountain, and turned their
attenetpn to the nearer scenes along
the coast of Kohala. We left Mahukona
about 8 a. M, after sending word to Hi
10 to arrange the details of the noun
tain trip, but these arrangements had
to be changed on arrival.
The trip by steamer along the coast
of Kohala, Hamakua and Hilo has been
described so we'll and so often by 9th
ers that it is not necessary to dwell up
