when Louo-Capt. Cook-was killed"
You would possibly be about u years
old at the time? Perhaps so" he
replied, but remember II WELL"
The English history OF that sad event
does not exactly agree with the ac-
counts we have heard from Intelligent
natives. The English historians place
all the blame on the natives; but the
native version shows that while Cook
and his officers were being feasted by
the king, high chiefs and Kahunas, in
the village near by, some OF the Eng
lish sailors came on shore to get wood
and in passing the Heiau. near the
landing, they went in and commenced
tearing down and carrying OF the
wooden railing around the altar. That
when the natives saw that dissertation
of their temple. which they held to be
sacred. they commenced pelting the
vandals with stones, and In retaliation
the sailors fired into the crowd with
guns, killing many The shooting
caused great CONSERVATION, and thous-
ands came flocking to the scene OF the
melee. That the officers on board one
of the ships seeing the commotion on
land, fired a broadside into the great
crowd on shore, killing scores The re-
port OF the cannon was heard at the
feast. Capt. Cook, his officers, the
king. chiefs and Kahunas rushed TO the

AS the old kahuna had become so

talk about religion to him; that he be-

be able to tell US about his people, be-

that we took a great interest in M

early history before white men came,
and brought those loathsome diseases

formerly, a generous, noble race OF peo-
