The girl and two boys had been play
ing in the stream for about an hour
when the full force Of the wall Of water
rushed down the narrow creek carrying
away the child. The sudden fise in. the
stream was due TO a cloudburst in the
mountains that filed all the streams
flowing from the Manoa valley TO food
height Saturday, morning.

were on the bank when the Hickey
girl was drowned They were so
frightened az the loss Of their play

IA coherent account Of the accident
could be drawn from them. Meanwhile
frightened relatives were conducting a
vain search for the child fearing dis
.aster, but unable to determine what had
occurred. IA I 3, =
When Esther's playmates finally
made known what had happened, the
police were notified. A corps OF, of
ficers and trustys were sent and tns

Reports Of Paahao's
Death Somewhat =
Exaggerated He Says

Henry Paahao has read his obituary.
He says everything is correct except
the news of his death ,., - +77
Last week Hilo papers published that
Paahao was dead. After the election
in Waipio, they said, Henry had gone
out and celebrated the defeat of J. p.
Hale, the Hilo member who voted last
session against ousting Kupihea from
the house of representatives. He had
filed himself up with booze, the HiIo
journals lamented, taken a canoe and
gone fishing. The canoe drifted ashore
but not Henry. Hence, Henry was
dead.
The Kohala Midget in its issue of
last Wednesday bears out Henry 3 story
that reports of HE death were exagger.
ated.. The Midget says:
"Mr. Peterman, while at Kukuihaele,
las. Saturday, heard of the drowning of
a Hawaiian, Henry Paahao, an employe
Of Marshall Brothers, on the rock con-
tract for the Hilo breakwater. He
had gone out in his canoe on the after,
noon of election day and, not return,
ing had been given up for lost.
At Waimea, what was Mr.. Peter
man s surprise to meet Henry trudging
cheerfully along the road, towards Wal,
mea, lugging bag of timed goods
His canoe had been driven down the
coast towards Kohala, and il was toe
hard work to paddle back, so Henry let
her sail on to Honoipu, where he
landed, and hoofed It over the noun.
tain to Waimea. He said the report
of his death was exaggerated, and he
didn t seem to think II was anything
to get excited about anyway :
