"Atcherley Petitions

Nakaleka presented two of what the
Speaker referred to as "the so-called
Ateherley petitions. The first one
of these weird documents, signed by
1915 residents of the leper settlement
said:
"We, the undersigned Leper Patients
residing at Kalawao, and Kalaupapa,
Molokai, 7. H., do humbly petition the
Legislature of 1909, by its Honorable
Members, to exercise its prerogative in
favor of a bill or resolution that win
give US some chance for removal to a
hospital on the Island of Oahu, and
placed under the treatment and care
of DR.. John Atcherley for our terrible
disease. We are aware that the pa
tients that were removed from Kalau-
papa last November have been greatly
benefited by DR.. Atcheriey's treatment.
We therefore appeal to you all for the
same relief. -
This was referred to the Health Com
mittee.
New Ward Hospital" Again.
The second petition was similar to
led, asking for some one hundred and
thirteen thousand dollars to establish
and maintain some leper hospital, called
throughout the petition the ssNew
Ward Hospital presumably one to be
esta blished and so christened by the
Atcherleys-and at which compulsory
medical treatment for all lepers must
be given for year before segregation
to Kalaupapa.
Coney suggested this. be tabled, as
the Others had been, but at Nakaleka IS
request the tabling was done on an
understanding that the money items are
to be taken up with the public works
appropriation bill.

Spanish Magnetic Needle has recent
