A kauai LAND SUIT.
DECEASED SENATOR
CHARGED WITH FRAUD
HIS WlFE's HEIRS CLAIM THAT
HE PROCURED LANDS FROM
HER BY FRAUDULENT
METHODS.

Kaukau Kahula, Albert Trask, J. p.
Mendoza. Isabella Mahinaku Lowell
sometimes known as Bella Mendiola),
J J. Dunno, and j. J. Dunno as admin
igtrator of the estate of Ana KIM ka-
hilina, deceased, have filed suit in eq-
uity against Samuel Kanewanui, as
administrator of the estate of Isaac II.
Kahilina, deceased. Elizabeth Kaio,
Rose X. Kaukaha, Hannah Scote
(sometimes called Hannah ScotD, Pa.
ulikeawe and A. X. Mkt.
The complainants claim that they
are entitled to certain Interests in
llnds on Kauai and oahu which be-
longed to Ana KIM Kahilina, the first
wife of the late Senator Kahilina, who
died intestate and the defendants nam.
ed claim TO be his heirs.
The complaint alleges that Ana X.
Kahilina possessed the lands in quse-
ton long before her marriage with
Senator Kahlina. The value of the
lands is claimed to be about s27 1000.
Further, that Senator Kahilina had
married Ana X. Kahilna not on ac-
count OF any affection, but was prompt
ed by mercenary motives. That Sena.
tor Kahilina and A. X. Mika were on
very friendly terms and that Kahilina
told the latter that he would make his
wife convey the property in question
to Mika on the understanding that
Mika should Immediately convey the
same to him. He at first refused to
do this, but later on he consented in
order to please Kahilina.
Mrs. Kahilna al the time Of the con.
voying of the lands-April 10, 1890
was So years old She was unaccus.
toned to business transactions and
was totally ignorant of the scheme Of
Kahilina and Mika. She was not an
educated woman and could neither
read. write nor speak English She
was dependent on her husband and, be.
ing feeble in body, was easily misled
by him and was in fear of him. IA.
hilina, well knowing the weak condi.
ton of his wife and of his influence
over her took advantage of this and
procured from her the deed to Mika.
which the latter Immediately recon.
veyed to Kahilina.
| The complainants pray that the
deeds from Mrs. Kahilina to Mika and
from Mika to Kahilina be declared null
and void, and that the defendants be
barred from any right, title or interest
in the property in question and that
the title of Mrs. Kahilina and of her
lawful successors be declared abso
lutte and that TIE compliments receive
judgments for the costs and such fur
Their relief as to court of equity may
seem just.
