AT the loot OF lane running IN
front of the Palama Chapel, Oh
North King Street, lies the remains
OF man who for 80 years has been
a resident of these Islands. Manuel
Joseph, who died yesterday after
noon at l o'clock, was born here
February 7th, 1920, just over
month before the FIRST batch OF
American missionaries arrived at
Kailua, Hawaii. BIS father long be-
fore that time had landed at Homo
lulu under most dramatic circum-
stances, which caused his name at
the time, to be printed the world
over.
Manuel Joseph, who died yester-
day, is tho last OF the family to dis
appear into the great beyond. His
brother William died many years
ago, aud his sister Mary rsook her
family name when she married a
native named Kaulahao, and she
became commonly known as Male
Ksulahao. The first wife OF Cap
tain j. G. Cluney was the daughter
OF Male Ksulahao. They have all
passed away.
During his life the deceased visit-
ed every port and city OF note I'M

venturous spirit OF his father and
shortly after his llth birthday, sail
ed away from Honolulu on sailing

succe sively China, Japan, Austria

de was in California at the time
OF the gold craze and was one OF the
first 49'ers. But in his heart, he al
ways had longing for his native
ilsrd. He would dream of the
Paradise of the Pacific with all its
beauties aud splendor and leaving
the rest OF the world behind him re-
turned to Honolulu. A carpenter
by trade he has been a familiar
figure on numerous buildings which
have been erected in this city dur
log the last quarter century or more
Twenty yetrs ago he used to be 8
storekeeper on Liliha street, and
has since been a resident OF that dis
trict. He leaves a widow, Catherine
Nawas, who is only AZ years old
His funeral will take place at {
o'clock this afternoon, interment bs
ing at Nuuanu cemetery alongsid,
OF his first wife.
But if the life OF Manuel JOSEPH
has been one of adventure, what
shall we say Of the experiences o.
his father. 1t was long, long years
ago. The exact date cannot be as

ou6 entirely. NothinE to eat!
Nothing to drink Moth &, but
the immensely of the ocean, roth
ing but desolatiop, isolation, death
staring them 10 the face. Manuel
Joseph's father was enc Of the un-
fortunates and but for miracle
nothing in the world could save
them. For days they spent with
out food OF any kind and murmurs
OF revolt begun to be heard. S me-
thing had to be done. TIL y de-
cided 10 cast lots aud every three
DAYS kill one OF the number, eat
his body aud drink his blood. A
horrible but urgent necessity, Lots
wore drawn aud during four con-
secu.ive times the horrible execu
ton was gone through. The sur
vivors were sullen and despair
was on their faces. Only three
vera left. Four human being
four comrades who had heen their
shipmates for many months, who
had lived their own lie, shared the
same pleasures and dangers had
been eaten up. Three more days
were spent scrutinizng the horizon,
as one OF the conditions of the terri.
BILE understanding for self prsser-
walton was that the executions
would stop the moment that land
was sighted. Night came and
nothing in sighll Nothing but the
same despair, nothing but the same
necessity staring them in the face
that on the morrow ono OF the re-
naming three would have to be
sacrificed to save the other two.
After fearful night twilight came
at last, aud with it the same usual
hopes Of land aud salvation. Twelve
o'clock came and nothiug was in
sight. Hunger was again becoming
terribly threatening; at last lots
were cast for the next execution.
Joseph was the unfortunate
whom fate chosed on that day.
Five o'clock, as usual was to be the
hour OF the sacrifice, and Joseph
begun making preparations for it.
At 4 O'Clock, however, when al hope
was lost, thin blue line was dis
covered on the far away horiz IN.
Pulses beat higher, courage aud hops
fill up their hearts, and they fell in
each other arms when, at last they
had no doubt but that land was in
eight. The three untortuDates
we're saved, if jjS, did not kill them,
for land was in sight 1t was the
Island of Kauai. Their troubles
were over, and when they reached
HONOLULU, weak, emaciated, S, uni

for by the good hearted Hawaians
Joseph was the first Portuguese
that ever set foot 10 the Hawaiian
Islands, a hundred years ago He
married here, and raised family
composed OF two sons and daugh-

For soma reason or another,
Joseph gained for himself the ill
feeling of the Hawaians. One day
as he was crossing vacant lot,
where today stands the Roman
Catholic Cathedral, he was set upon
by a number OF natives and unmer-
