well the first celebration. 1t came two
months after the famous victory at that
critical time when the ships<of Germany,
England and the other European Powers
were crowding one another on the bay,
and when it seemed even to the coolest
Americans that clash with Germany
was inevitable. That night the English
men-of-war dressed ship with thousands
of electric lights, and drawing away from
the other vessels took their place close
to the American fleet. The other nations
had not paid any particular attention to
the notice which 1t is the custom to send
to other ships in a harbor informing them
that the day is national holiday; and
the special attention of the British was
accepted as an assurance that If trouble
came they would be with us. Since that
evening, therefore, the American officers
and men who were present, and who re-
allied the full meaning of the incident,
have cherished a warmer feeling for "our
British cousins"

RESOLUTIONS AND MOTIONS.
Notices of motions being in order,
Sgpodsman L. Give Davies gave
notice of motion that the Synod
resolve itself into committee OF
the whole for the consideration OF
the Bylaws. Synodsman Pond
introduced resolution to the effect
that the amended charter, which
had been passed be put in the hands
OF the trustees, for them to apply to
the civil authorities for approval OF
the form OF the charter as it stood
at present, as passed by the Synod.
Synodsman Gso. w. Hay selden
also gave notice OF a motion to re-
consider the vote taken on the &C
CO ptauce OF the report on SYnodical
Expenses as we'll as the financial
part Of the report OF the Trustees.

Give Davies moved that the motion
OF Captain Pond above referred on
the application for the amended
charter, which was put and carried.
The original motion Of Capt. Pond
was then taken up and considered.
Mr.. Tesla said that as hs understood
it, the Trustees were not bound to
accept the charter as amended and
passed by the Synod. 1t was ex-
planned by the Bishop that the
Trustees we're not in duty bound to
accept, but that msjority OF them
we're members of this Synod, aud

not to- ratify their own action as

WRITTEN STATEMENT
which Synodsman Geo. F. Davies
asked leave to read:
III would preface my remarks by
explaining to the synod that al
though have often been in Koh ala
and had the privilege OF worship.
ping in st Augustine's, and although
l have the honour Of representing
that parish in this Synod, unfor-
funately l am not resident mem
Der OF that parish aud the Inform
alton l have concerning this Incl
dent is not as complete as it other
wise would have been; several OF
the facts related in the addeudum'
to the report OF the Trustees being
new to me.
"As l understand the circum-
stances, when Mr.. Robert Wallace
left Kohala he decided to dispose Of
his residence, and it was thought
that this was the very thing to se-
cure as parsonage for the Cnurch.
Mr.. Wallace, from his close counec.
tion with St. Augustine's, naturally
gave preference to the desires Of
the church. people and mentioned
to them the price at which he would
sell them the place and ALSO gave a
limit OF time, as he had other off ,rs.
"The church members then set
about raising the funds and did
their best to collect the sum men
toned in the given time. This they
were unable to do except by accept
ing certain donations which had
been offered accompanied by condi-
tious, which conditions were that
the property be vested in local
trustees.
"The case for the Kohala people
to decide was whether to reject
these donations aud thus suffer the
property to gointo other hands, OF
to accept the donations and fulfill
the conditions. They decided upon
:. the latter course, especially as the
possession of the Wallace premises
was a matter Of necessity to them
the only available entrance to the
Church being through the grounds
accordingly the purchase was
made and the property was vested
in the names of three gentlemen az
trustees for the Church. members
worshipping in St. Augustine's
Church, Kohala. This title was se
lected as it not only fulfilled the
aforesaid conditions but gave a
double security that the premises
they purchased would ever belong
to the Church, for not only were
the local tru tees responsible to the
Church members worshipping in
St. Augustine's, but it was certain
that those Church, members would
always be loyal members OF the
Church as whole, otherwise they
would be unable to worship 10 St
Augustine's which Church is ir
the hands of the trustees Of the
Anglican Church in Hawaii and
they are responsible for the worship
conducted in that Church being il
confor nifty with and in connection
with the laws OF the Church Of
which they are trustees.
ut was the intention OF the con
ditional donors that this property
should be transferred to the Pro
testant Episcopal Church 10 the
United States OF America as soon a,
that Church should be established
in Hawaii aud be able to hold pro-
perty there for the uses OF the
Church.
"That this is also the intention Of
the present local trustees this letter
will sufficiently show. 1t is signed
