liam FitZOs borne, who was killed at
Flanders III 1910 He was succeeded by
his son, the Earl OF Hereford, who was
sentenced to Imprisonment for life in
1918 for conspiriug against the king.
The Fitz Os bornes had possession OF the
castle nine years and in that time the
stone-work of the present castle was
built, that is, the walls surrounding the
original works and the keep. Many
changes have since been made in extra
walls, towers, etc.
Prior to l0S6 he Chapel of ST. Nicholas
had been built within the castle walls,
and endowed with lands which are yet a
part OF The parish, known as "St. Nicholas
in-the-Castle." This first chapel was de-
stroyed, and in 1873 another was built.
In 1856 the old chapel WAS for some I'M
known reason dismantled, and only
the outer walls without a roof are now
standing.
In the reign of Henry |. the lordshp
of the Isle of Wight and the castle was
held by Richard de Redyeries, Earl of
Dean, who was succeeded by his son Bald
win. Baldwin got into disgrace with the
king, and in 1876 was besieged in the cas-
tie by the kings forces, and after a time
was forced to yield on account of the
failure OF his water supply, caused by a
long drought which dried up the springs.
Baldwin went into exile, until the reign
Of Henry II, when his estates were re-

A Sad Death.

Lewis j. Levey died at midnight
Saturday the % inst. at his residence
surrounded by his family.
The deceased had only suffered a
few days from pneumonia, but his
health was broken down since his
incarceration in the t-hole, called
Oahu Jail, during the so.called revo-
luton in 1895.
For mysterious reasons Mr.. Levey
who at that time was conducting q
prosperous business as auctioneer,
and who never had been known as
meddling in politics, was arrested
and held without trial or explana-
tions in the Jail of Mr.. Dole's Re-
public.
Prison life did not suit him, and
he grew visibly old and feeble dur
ing the many weeks he was shut up,
insulted and, when calling for
justice, ridiculed.
He knew that his business must
go under without his personal at
tention. He knew that his wife,
who was in delicate condition and
his five children needed bread and
he was mentally and physically
injured.
Finally in his despair he accepted
the terms offered to the political
prisoners by Mr.. Dole of leaving the
country in. lieu of an immediate re-
lease. He was given his liberty and
with his large family he started for
Sydney.
The rest OF the story is soon told.
Broken in health, 81 years old it was
hard even for man Of his ability,
to find employ in the rushing eapi-
tai of the Southern Hemisphere.
After trying in vain to gain the
necessaries for himself and his small
children he returned to Honolulu,
broken down man.
His former friends who knew
Lewis j. Levey so well, when he was
leading auctioneer and the lessee
of the Royal Opera House, had
either met misfortunes themselves
or had forgotten" their once "bon
camarade."
And when he was laid low with
congestion of the lungs there was
nothing in his frame to resist the
attack. Pneumonia set in and he
died, deplored by all who knew him.
Lewis ]. Levey was born in Man
chester, England, September 10,
1888. His energy and business en-
terprise had carried him into many
countries. He at one time managed
a hotel at Bombay, and as travel
ler for big firms in Loudon, he visit
ed many countries in Europe and
Africa. He finally accepted the
position as purser on Portuguese
immigrant vessel bound for this
port. He remained here for more
than Is years doing business as
auctioneer and commission agent
The deceased was brother-in-law
to Abraham Hoffnung, millionaire,
doing business in London and
Sydney.
The funeral took place yesterday
afternoon under the auspices of the
Sons of st. George and the Jewish
Benevolent Society.

about doors and windows to offices

pected that the regular policemen
can act as watchmen for our mer-
chants and storekeepers. They can
not lock the doors left open through
carelessness, and they are not sup

single moment. We learn that a

SMITH THE MUSICIAN.

His Excellency the Attorney
General has written letter in re-
sponse to petition from the Portu-
guese Band of Hilo, asking permis-
sion to give concerts on Cocoanut
Island on Sundays. The letter reads
as follows:
DEPARTMENT OF THE ATToRNEY-GEN-
ERAL,
Honolulu, FL. l., Aug. IL, 1896.
Mr.. GODFREY f. ALFONSO,
Hilo, Hawaii,
Sir:-Yours of the Sd instant, ask
ing that permission be granted the
'Rival das Musss" band to play ON
Sunday afternoon on Cocoanut ISL
and, was duly received
The matter of the request has
been considered by the Executive
Council, and it has been decided not
to grant the permission. While the
responsibility for enforcing the laws
devolves upon this department, l
preferred to have the matter acted
upon by the Executive Council.
While the action may be deemed
inconsistent. in view of the fact that
the Government Band has been al
lowed to play in Honolulu on Sun
day afternoons, there are certain
considerations which have weight in
arriving at the decision.
The conditions here are different.
The Honolulu band is under Gov
ernment control and the kind of
music played, and the whole char
acter of the performances can be
controlled.
There are not less than three
other music bands in Honolulu, but
permission has not been granted to
any of them to play in public on
Sunday.
would also add, that there are a
variety of music bands in various
parts of the Island, who, if the Sun
day playing in Hilo is allowed,
would probably desire similar per-
mission. Many of these bands are
of such character that no public
benefit would result from allowing
them to play.
l have the honor to be, Sir,
Your obedient servant.

Attorney General.

We can fully understand the feel
ings of our Hilo contemporary. 1t
is most amusing to imagine Mr..
Smith and his colleagues getting to-
gether every Friday in Executive
Session, and after serious debate
agree upon program for the next
Sunday concert. None of the
gentlemen have so far given auy
proofs that'they know the difference
between yankee Doodle" aud

TOPICS OF THE DAY.

1t is stated that the American
born Duchess of Marlborough is
very anxious to purchase Marl-
borough House and to restore it to
the family possessions. This is not
likely to happen during the life of
Queen Victoria or of the Prince of
Wales. While the house is not
much loved by the Prince, under
existing circumstances it is both a
convenience and necessity.
The Independent. [volume] (Honolulu, H.I.) 1895-1905, 1896-08-24

The Hilo people naturally protest
and the Tribune evidently knowing
our Government closes an editorial
on the subject by the following per-
tinent remarks:
The Independent. [volume] (Honolulu, H.I.) 1895-1905, 1896-08-24

The benefit to be derived from
Sunday concerts does not depend
on the class Of music played. 1t can
not be expected that bands like
those conducted by Godefroy,
Strauss, Gungl and other great
leaders can be found in every village
and hamlet. Bnt the villagers will
after their weeks work feel just as
edited and benefited by the tunes
of some three or four musicians
playing ta-ra-ra-boom- da-aye, as
Smith, we and other great musicians
are by listening to Mozart's Twelfth
Mass.
