After spending delightful dag NJ
the Knudsen ranch, the party went up
TO Halemau, and there they made n
careful inspection of the swamp land
In the Waimea district. Il is believed
that with the water available. and the
efforts o nthe part Of the settlers in
this district. there is u great future
on Kauai in the development OF the
land there.
They went on to IIanalei then made
an interesting trip along the Ma Pail.
AL sorts of adventure varied the ur
and among the interesting features
was the night spent by them in the
old sea cave at Kalalau. The GOV.
ernor and his party spent some time
at the big plantations, and went over
some Of the Kappa land district.
As to the story that the party gu!
lost on the trip, they were merely c,n,
