The old stone church at Hawai-
ahao was filed last evening when
the Hawaiian people were invited to
pay their last respects to the late
Queen Kapiolani.
Colonel Samuel Parker, an inti-
mate friend OF the deceased, and the
halas OF the nephews the late Dow
ager, acted as ushers. The church
was decorated in a most beautiful
manner by ladies who were friends
OF the deceased and true Royalists.
At 8 o'clock the retainers OF Queen
Liliuokalani arrived carrying the
magnificent royal kahilis belonging
to her. These emblems of royalty
were placed near the bier which
was surrounded by the kahilis Of the
deceased alii.
AT midnight the doors to the
Church we're closed but large con
gregation of mourning Hawaiians
remained in the Church yard be-
wailing the great chiefess.
To-day the Church was thrown
open to the public again and until
midnight the people will be given
an opportunity to witness the grand
pageantry and say the last farewell
