Or. w. J. Goodhue, our newly ap.

busted by the Board OF Health. The
reason was given that their loved
, ones whom they so faithfully followed
had died; therefore the Board of
Health holds that they cannot remain
In the Settlement any longer. In my
opinion If the Board of Health will
continue this policy very few kokuas
will remain in the settlement and in
fact there is about 80 per cent of ko.
