be a public dinner served in the
hall, the ladies taking charge,
and every family is requested to
bring well filled baskets. There
will be an afternoon session from
1:30 to A O'Clock.

done on the farms and work that

a couple of the more venturesome
members of the Wilson party, the
writer being one of these, to go on also.
and with full canteen, two and a half
gallons of water weighing about TWEEN
ty pounds (yet giving, as it subsequent
ly developed, a ton of confidence and
assurance), and a rain coat and food
supply strapped on the shoulders, the
balance of the party were soon lost
sight of in the rear. Oul experiences
in getting up to the higher ground on
which a fair view of the volcano was
to be had were a trif1e exasperatfng
as, night coming on, and having but
a ftful, uncertain light, that of the
moon and the splashing Of white or red
heated lava over the sides of the cone
of the crater, it became necessary to
follow a course beset by uncertain pit
falls which had been avoided, day be-
ing then on, by those in advance, who
having gained a prominent point could
be seen between us and the red glare
of the volcanoes light on an artificial
horizon.
In our ambitious, possibly foolhardy,
desire to secure equally advantageous
ground as they, we followed in
straight line, or nearly so, onward and
upward, through and over an area OF
newly formed lava beds, even then hot
under the feet and sitting with sui
phurouS gases to the senses-here
there and everywhere all around and
about US this lake of lava scanned with
cracks and crevices, the red, lurid lava
was plainly visible and painfully in
evidence, when finding it impossible
to advance further a retreat was to all
ray pnC
our desire to reach the position occu-
pied by Moraigny and Janeway, whom
We could see distinctly, yet in igno-
| rance of the character of the interven-
| ing country, we had gotten our baruue
well out of sight Of water and into the
| midst of lake Of lava of recent de-
post. We had suffered and endured
so much In getting this far that like
the drummer boy when asked to heat
a retreat replied 'he did not know
! how" so with US, we did not know
| how, it was so uncertain and quite i'm
| possible to tell when we were retreat
| ing or going ahead. And here arises

| light was on and though we realized
1t was warm. even hot, under foot,
yet to appearances the lava seemed and
looked black, much as the top of a
newly polished cook stove in daytime.
Then, too, as we went on, the light of
the volcano being in front helped to
mislead as to the true condition or the
ground under foot True If wa. that
almost in every crack and crevice red
| hot lava was clearly to be seen. but

was when we found the heat too great
and the gases too expressing and we
turned about to go back that we dis
covered, looking to the east and to-
ward the darkness, the intensity Of
the heat as well as the stretch of lava
we had crossed, then it was that the
peculiar condition of which / spoke
developed. Darkness of night had cast
her mantle over the newly formed
lava beds and it's whole surface was
enlivened and kindled in such a way
as to make it appear ten fold more
livid than when we had passed over
it, the cracks over which we had but
recently passed and which then SEEM
ed warm with a trace of red deep
down now as we looked upon them
seemed to come up to the very sur
face with but a coating of blackened
crust, and even that looked angry.
There was no retreat. We could not
stand still to exceed one-half minute
and fortunately so, for in moving about
we came to a mound of the pahoehoe
flow of 1881 about the size of a dining
table and about three feet above the
level of the new flow. It's presence
was felt rather than seen, a fall with
scratched hands and arms discovered
to the writer its character Yet it was
with a sense of gratitude as well as
relief that we established ourselves on
this bit of hospitable 1ava-the balance
of a long though not wearisome night
of Tuesday, July II, shipwrecked
mariner in a sea Of lava.
All night long the fitful splashing
and roaring going on in the volcano
was plainly to be seen and heard and
its beauty and awfulness was more OPP
pressive by reason of the hot blasts
of air carried by unfriendly breezes
from it and the intervening lava across
our place of refuge. A kind wind
sprung up after midnight and blowing
from across old lava relieved us from
the depressing heat. At no time dur
ing that night, as I now recall my
sensations, was I half so frightened or
apprehensive even of the possible out
come as since then when told that
had smart rain fallen during the
night the chances We're we would have
been suffocated by the steam arising
from hot lava-with no one to tell the
tale. for we are singular.
Night gave way to the early rays of
the morning sun and with its first light
we broke camp making for the mound
occupied by Moraigny and Janeway, to
find their things, canteens, oil coats,
etc, only Casting our eyes towards
the volcano we discovered them Well
on a half mile over this same hot lava
bed.
With renewed courage we followed,
Joining them at the cone formed about
the active crater from which was then
; flowing a stream of lava fully forty
feet wide as it passed out OF the crater
with roaring, rushing sound down
the mountain side at speed Of many
miles an hour to the valley of Mauna
Loa, a grand and awful sight.
