Honolulu as the showering of confetti and other
niardi gras features. In pioneering the way,

narcularly those on the outskirts and the tendency

ATTORNEYS DOUBT SECOND
FILING OF 1917 "WILL"

; "Absurd!" declare local attorneys
in commenting on reports that the
document alleging to be a will exc
cuted by the late Queen Liliuokalani,
and declared by Circuit Judge Ashford
to be a fraud, will. at some future
date. be filed in circuit court again
for probate.
Attorneys are OF the opinion that
the document, having once been
thrown out, would not be considered
by the court for a moment should an
attempt be made to have it probated.
They base these opinions on the fact
that Rev" Sam Kamakaia and J.. M,
Kealoha, the witnesses" have testi'
fled under oath that they did not sign
the document in the queens presence,
but in the presence and at the request
Of Princess" Theresa Belliveau.

for us, even there.
