and c. R. Bishop signing the deed.
There are many stories told OF how
Kamehameha used the building to
raise money but, according to the
records at the archives, the following
are the facts. In September 1851 Ka.
mehameha secured a loan from the
minister of finance of $4,000 at one
per cent a month for eight months.
At the end OF the eight months he was
evidently unable to pay the debt and
there was some talk in the priyy coun'
ell, on the question Of selling the
building. Instead. however, he was
loaned $4,000 more at IL per cent a
year for two years and the $4,000 was
includedrin the mortgage. When this

debt was paid is not exactly clear but
as far as can be ascertained it was
probably settled up at his death.
In 1S45 the government leased the
building but did not move in until the
next year when the several depart
ments were formed. Kamehameha
was paid 81 900 month for its use.
The order for its demolition came
Thursday from the U. s. government
which owns the site and building on q
request from the health department:
which has declared it unsafe and III
sanitary.
