W RAIL, Ind, June 49, 1902.-Editor
Advertiser: Permit lie to send
~ you the heartiest thanks of my
wife, Mathilda Shaw, and my
own, for the very well written article
published by you on May q concerning
our lost son, Aigernon George Shaw,
who mysteriously disappeared from
Honolulu about three years ago. Many
thanks for publishing his portrait. In
the narrative, every point seems to
have been covered in the best newspa-
per way. Will you permit me to make
couple of suggestions?
Firstly, Where is Peter the baker,
who worked on the Australia in 1899?
Is he in your city? If SO, it has oc-
CURED to me that Dick Creeder. ba-
ker of the same vessel, working at
Singers, might know where Peter IS?
Peter, our son wrote, introduced him
to a native family The head of il
was Moses Pvnahou, and his wife Lu-
nalileo. Perhaps this is the family at
Kalihi that your article aIludes to. The
house adjoined the water and there
was a pond near H. The name of Moses
Punahou should perhaps read Moses of
Punahou. Does solomon Colburn of Lii
nha street know the address of Peter?
1 believe that if Peter the baker could
be found he could throw some light on
the mystery.
Secondly, 1 see it is surmised that my
son left on the Moana August 16. 1899,
for Sydney. Mr.. Sydney c. Boyd. res

liza, who gave the Sydney. Nounea and

~LANS are being made by the Oahu
Railway and Land Company for
81 the modernization of it's depot
and grounds ON King street. The
work win be undertaken in the fall and
when the improvements now under
contemplation are effected the terminus
of the road will be one of the most at
tractive spots along the street. In
every way the new station will be up
to date and viii embody all the latest
ideas in construction and protection.
among the IDEAS which are to be car
ried out iIs the new building are the
placing of the station on the street
front, the construction of a train shed
which vii. afford protection from the
clements for the travellers. the placing
of sences and gates so that there will
be. no chance for intending passengers
to ge. upon the tracks, and beautifying
os the grounds about the station. These,
however. will be progressive move
n,ents, and it is not likely that there
will be any large expense attached to
the improvements
force which viii be affected by the Eew
conditions contemplate the removal of
!. the station from its present position
until it fronts on King street, just
above the junction wittsthe road lead
ing to Iwilei This viii mean the
changing OF the front OF the station
and the erection of new fence about
the grounds so that there win appear
a much more slightly building and
-sr.A Tt-z- rlxr
placed station would have it's side pre-
sented to the train sheds, new struc-
lures which will cover the length of
the present station along the tracks.
These will be divided from the passen-
ger platforms by the fences which Will
be erected for the purpose of keeping
passengers from taking the trains with
OUT first having passed through the
gates which are TO be provided for the
purpose, at which tickets are to be
taken and the passengers sent on to
their trains.
There will be erected along the Iwi-
lei road a line of fence with gates
where the switch tracks pass through,
and there viii be no chance for per-
sons to beat their way through and
take trains without going in at the
gates. There will thus be clear pre-
vention from accident and the COM
pany expects to be more than reim-
bursed by the little trouble which will
be made for them by the people, es-
pecially Orientals, who try to take the
trains without tickets or money to pay
their fares.
The work OF widening King street at
the point where the depot stands is now
we'll along and the road will have ad
diti5nal width as great as the previous
depth of sidewalk. There is now being
placed along the sidewalk the water
pipes and the telephone poles for the
service through the street, and the
macadamizing of the road will be push
ed along as rapidly as possible.
The directors OF the railroad COM
pany will take UP the work of passing
upon plans some time during the next
two months, and it is believed that the
Improvement will be in shape early in
the fall
