Belfast Grandmother
Visits Volcanoes

Belfast. Me-, Dec. 0.-(SpeciaD-
The following letter from Mrs. Oscar
f. Stevens, to her grandson, Herbert
II. Stevens, Jr., in Belfast gives a
vivid description of her visit to Hon
olulu. and a trip through the
Hawaiian group, such as few tour
lists are able to take, of visits to the
active volcanoes, and of attending a
reception of Governor Wallace Far
rlngton, a former Maine newspaper
man, who is now governor Of the
Hawaiian Islands and who never
fails to give royal welcome to any
American, especially if they come
from Maine.
Honolulu, Hawaii.
Il hardly know how to begin this
letter for the stay here has been
one round of pleasure. On making
the acquaintance Of Miss Scott, the
young woman Of whom I wrote you.
who lives here, and whom I met en-
the ship coming from San Francisco,
the whole trip has been ideal.
Our approach to Honolulu was a
revelation, for the island of Oaku on
which Honolulu is situated, consists
of two ranges Of mountains, with
valleys here and there. One of the
first things of interest was the light
house perched up among the crags
and one wondered how anyone could
get up there. Then came Coco head
where the wireless is, then the most
talked of point, Diamond Head,
which is fortified and called the Glib
ralta of Hawaii. AS we rounded the
point. Honolulu came into sight,
beautifully situated on the water
front and back on the hills. We
arrived about P. NJ. and just as I
was leaving the dock, I heard some
one say, Just moment please"
and turning. Miss Scott placed a
wreath Of flowers around my neck,
the pretty. and very picturesque Gus
tom they have of doing when one
comes or goes from Hawaii.
"After had registered at the ho-
tel, went to WAIKIKI beach to see
the surf riding, the boys riding the
waves standing on a board. and in
canoes, which is all very interest
ing and great sport for anyone who
swims. I didn't try it but took their
word for it.
"Wednesday morning we started
for the island of Hawaii on which is
the volcano, or rather the crater of
Kilauea. First we passed Molokai,
where the leper colony is. They say

Then came Lanai. small and not
Inhabited much, then Maui. This is
second largest and has the largest
extinct volcano in the world. It is
called Haleakawa, or House of the
Sun.
Then came Wawaii, the largest
Of the group. The passage was very
interesting but very rough. I was
able, however, to attend all meals
regularly.
Soon after starting I asked the
captain question and he smiled and
said, I could tell you. but here is a
gentleman who is a storehouse of in
formation. he is a Hawaiian from
Hilo, and knows everything about
the Islands, The gentleman, Mr..
Aona. proved not only a good guide
but story teller and he know all
the legends of his people. They are
very superstitious but Mr.. Aona said
he was not. He said he remembered
his grandfather telling him that If
the volcano was quiet they could
make a sacrifice and chant and you
could see the fire. One time, he
said. he could just remember it, his
grandfather took him over to the
volcano when it was quiet, that they
dug a deep hole in the ground, put
in lot Of food, then some stones
and lighted the fire and then when
the stones were hot they threw in
the sacrifice, which was a black pig,
white chicken and red handker-
chief and while this was burning
they chan.ed. And he continued,
We saw the fire.
Mr.. Aona Is clerk of the circuit
court Of Hilo and he told me much
of interest about 1t and Hawaii. He
told me to ask for Mr.. Manchester
when I got there and he proved to
be a guide at the volcano who had
been there 40 years and had seen the
big erruptions of 1919 and 1921. The
crater has been inactive for some
time but has started UP recently and
so saw it in pretty good shape We
arrived just before luncheon and had
time to see the sulphur banks and
pits. It certainly looks and smells
as If it might be way station to
Hades.

see the entrance to Honolulu at that
hour and it was beautiful.
