It is constructed of rubble lava rock and is approximately 62'x32' with a 13' lanai extending from the rear. It is of mixed architectural style, but is most influenced by New England architecture adapted to Hawaii's warm climate. The lava rock walls and foundation are no longer visable due to the extensive rennovations undertaken by King Kalakaua when he turned Hulihee into his summer residence. The exterior walls are now finished with dashed cement and Victorian decoration has been added to doorways, windows and eaves. Three bays are expressed on the east front by the decorative axial doorway and the two windows on each on side, representing the three rooms across the front. In rn addition to the rear lanai, there are small entrance porches on the east and south and a stoop on the north. ^ m The floor plan of the house is very simple. There are z three rooms on each floor, the center one on each floor serving as an entranceway and hall. The staircase is located on in the central room and is made of native koa wood. Doorways doors, paneling and decorative trim are likewise of native koa wood. n The building and grounds occupy a magnificent site in Kailua-Kona between Alii Drive and Kailua Bay. There are several insignificant out-buildings on the grounds and many native Hawaiian trees and shrubs.

T ra FVS par tot fo n> iTATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE \Hulihee Palace was built in'1838 by 'John Adams Kuakini using native labor and local materials, lava rock, coral mortar, ohia for structure and rich native koa wood for interiors. Kuakini, one of the early' governors of the island of Hawaii, was the brother-in-law of King Kamehameha I. He seems to have encouraged the work of the early missionaries in the educational as well as the religious field, having at one time conducted a school in his own yard. He was also instru­ mental in the building of Mokuaikaua Church^j.n 1836, still standing across Alii Drive from the Palace. \Upon his death in 1844, the property passed to his adopted son, the husband of Princess^ Ruth Keelikolani, and event­ ually to the Princess. She was the great granddaughter of Kamehameha I and later became governor of the island for fourteen^years. The heir to her extensive land holdings, Princess* Bernice Pauahi (Mrs. Charles) Bishop, established the Bishop Estate and Kamehameha School, both well-known names in modern Hawaii. After the death,of Princess Ruth, the property was acquired inM.884 by King*"Kalakaua who made Hulihee his summer resi­ dence, the scene of a festive social life. Modernization by Kalakaua included stuccoing the exterior, plastering the interior, relocating the one-story kitchen wing which was attached on the north and widening the gallery (lanai). A photograph of the exterior of the Palace taken prior to 1884 is on view in the present entrance hall and also in the State Archives files. It shows the raw lava rock exterior walls, the kitchen wing and an entirely different lanai on the west (makai) facing the sea. Through various successions and purchase, the property was acquired by the Territory of Hawaii in^l925 and placed under the care of the Daughters of Hawaii for a Hawaiian Museum by Executive Order 299, dated 27 October 1927 Time and a period of neglect and dis-use in the early twentieth century left the Palace in a general state of dis­ repair, corrected through the efforts of the Daughters of />v &o &t /v/-, None P AT A • LATITUDE AND LONGITUDE COORDINATES j LATITUDE AND LONGITUDE COORDINATES DEFINING A RECTANGLE LOCATING THE PROPERTY ^ 1 DEFINING THE CENTER POINT OF A PROPERTY , OF LESS THAN TEN ACRES _____ 1 ——————————————, —————————————— R CORNER LATITUDE LONGITUDE LATITUDE LONGITUDE Degrees Minutes Seconds Degrees Minutes Seconds Degrees Minutes Seconds Degrees Minutes Seconds 19° 38' 32^ 155° 59' 51 " NE ° ° S E i 11 i» SW 0 , . 0 APPROXIMATE ACREAGE OF NOMINATED PROPERTY: \ ( £) tx» |L1ST ALL STATES AND COUNTIES FOR PROPERTIES OVERLAPPING STATE OR COUNTY BOU hJJJAFjl ES m STATE: CODE COUNTY /''fcXV \ \ 1 1 /^~^., CODE /^:>" ^ ^' x> \ m STATE: CODE COUNTY: r^f/'*"'"•'/' ,. t^Ff*Pl'— "«-t» """fl ^'''"^^ ^ CODE •ZL STATE: CODE COUNTY: 1"^!

Hawaii. The extent of damage is described in the October 18, ^1927 report by^Rothwell, Kangeter and Lester, Architects, who were engaged to rehabilitate the Palace. The next major restoration seems to have occurred in 1953. This was carried out by the Department of Public Works, Territory of Hawaii. Drawings for this work are on file today in the Public Works Office (Job #5653). This work included new structural framing, including the roof trusses, and the replacement of deteriorated woodwork and trim. As one of few remaining buildings in Hawaii connected with the royal families, Hulihee deserves recognition. Its age and location add greatly to its significance. Together with Mokuaikaua Church, Hulihee forms the nucleus of the historical town of Kailua-Kona and they mark the startling changes in the Hawaiian way of life in the less than 20 years between 1820 and 1840. Hulihee is also of great importance as an early example of Hawaiian monarchy architecture reflecting European and American influences.

  • AMERICA's ANNEXATION of HAWAII by BECKY L. BRUCE
    A LUSCIOUS FRUIT: AMERICA’S ANNEXATION OF HAWAII by BECKY L. BRUCE HOWARD JONES, COMMITTEE CHAIR JOSEPH A. FRY KARI FREDERICKSON LISA LIDQUIST-DORR STEVEN BUNKER A DISSERTATION Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of History in the Graduate School of The University of Alabama TUSCALOOSA, ALABAMA 2012 Copyright Becky L. Bruce 2012 ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ABSTRACT This dissertation argues that the annexation of Hawaii was not the result of an aggressive move by the United States to gain coaling stations or foreign markets, nor was it a means of preempting other foreign nations from acquiring the island or mending a psychic wound in the United States. Rather, the acquisition was the result of a seventy-year relationship brokered by Americans living on the islands and entered into by two nations attempting to find their place in the international system. Foreign policy decisions by both nations led to an increasingly dependent relationship linking Hawaii’s stability to the U.S. economy and the United States’ world power status to its access to Hawaiian ports. Analysis of this seventy-year relationship changed over time as the two nations evolved within the world system. In an attempt to maintain independence, the Hawaiian monarchy had introduced a westernized political and economic system to the islands to gain international recognition as a nation-state. This new system created a highly partisan atmosphere between natives and foreign residents who overthrew the monarchy to preserve their personal status against a rising native political challenge. These men then applied for annexation to the United States, forcing Washington to confront the final obstacle in its rise to first-tier status: its own reluctance to assume the burdens and responsibilities of an imperial policy abroad.

P. 2 1 Digit zed by Google \ PREFACE AT the request of the Board of Education, I have .fi. endeavored to write a simple and concise history of the Hawaiian people, which, it is hoped, may be useful to the teachers and higher classes in our schools. As there is, however, no book in existence that covers the whole ground, and as the earlier histories are entirely out of print, it has been deemed best to prepare not merely a school-book, but a history for the benefit of the general public. This book has been written in the intervals of a labo­ rious occupation, from the stand-point of a patriotic Hawaiian, for the young people of this country rather than for foreign readers. This fact will account for its local coloring, and for the prominence given to certain topics of local interest. Especial pains have been taken to supply the want of a correct account of the ancient civil polity and religion of the Hawaiian race. This history is not merely a compilation. It is based upon a careful study of the original authorities, the writer having had the use of the principal existing collections of Hawaiian manuscripts, and having examined the early archives of the government, as well as nearly all the existing materials in print.

Kingdom ofHawai'i was never at war with the United States. The U.S. invaded the Neutral Kingdom ofHawai'i on January 17, 1893, under the U.S.S. Boston, committing an Act of War against the World recognized Neutral Kingdom ofHawai'i. This is still Piracy & Treason under the 9th Article of Confederation of 1777 and Article 1 section 8 of the 1791 U.S. Constitution, a 123 year old WAR CRIME. The United States has not been SANCTIONED or CHARGED. Take Judicial Notice: A Joint Resolution is a United States Domestic Law, confined only to the boundaries within the United States, not outside the United States like the Islands ofHawai'i. This is a Congressional Fact. The Only Fact that cannot be disputed is that the Hawaiian Islands is not part of the United States under the April30, 1900 Organic Act Section Two of all the LAWS for the TERRITORY OF HAWAll.

    HĀNAU MA KA LOLO, FOR THE BENEFIT OF HER RACE: a portrait of EMMA KAʻILIKAPUOLONO METCALF BECKLEY NAKUINA A THESIS SUBMITTED TO THE GRADUATE DIVISION OF THE UNIVERSITY OF HAWAIʻI AT MĀNOA IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF ARTS IN HAWAIIAN STUDIES AUGUST 2012 By Jaime Uluwehi Hopkins Thesis Committee: Jonathan Kamakawiwoʻole Osorio, Chairperson Lilikalā Kameʻeleihiwa Wendell Kekailoa Perry DEDICATION This thesis is dedicated to Kanalu Young. When I was looking into getting a graduate degree, Kanalu was the graduate student advisor. He remembered me from my undergrad years, which at that point had been nine years earlier. He was open, inviting, and supportive of any idea I tossed at him. We had several more conversations after I joined the program, and every single one left me dizzy. I felt like I had just raced through two dozen different ideas streams in the span of ten minutes, and hoped that at some point I would recognize how many things I had just learned. I told him my thesis idea, and he went above and beyond to help. He also agreed to chair my committee. I was orignally going to write about Pana Oʻahu, the stories behind places on Oʻahu. Kanalu got the Pana Oʻahu (HWST 362) class put back on the schedule for the first time in a few years, and agreed to teach it with me as his assistant. The next summer, we started mapping out a whole new course stream of classes focusing on Pana Oʻahu. But that was his last summer.

  • Manuscript Collections in the Archives
    M-70 CURTIS PIEHU IAUKEA COLLECTION Introduction The CurtisPiehu Iaukea Collection consists of personaland professionalpapers, including correspondence, commissions, diaries, and photographs given to the Hawaii State Archives at various times. The collection initially was deposited in the Archives by Iaukea in 1926 as a loan and then subsequently more material was acquired fromhis grandsons, Curtis Piehu Iaukea II around 1974 and Edward B. Watson in 1978. In 1936 Iaukea removed some of the material and loaned it to Jean Hobbs to work on his memoirs. This material was later recovered fromJean Hobbs' estate as well as a gift donated by A. R. Nylen, the proprietor of Aala Pawn Shop in Honolulu. The collection also contains a copy of a typescript of the biography of Curtis P. Iaukea by Loma Iaukea Watson, his daughter. There are handwritten annotations and corrections in this copy of the typescript. Access to this manuscriptcollection is unrestricted Biographical Sketch Curtis Piehu Iaukea was born in Waimea, Hawaii on December 13, 1855 to J. W. and Lahapa (Nalanipo) Iaukea. At a young age Iaukea was adopted by his uncle Kaihupa'a, a royal retainer to King Kamehameha III, who raised Iaukea to followin his footstepsas a retainer. Being under the care of Kaihupa'a, Iaukea lived near the palace grounds and grew up among the royal family.

    UNIVERSITY OF WISCONSIN – EAU CLAIRE “LIVING ON THE CRUST OF A VOLCANO” THE OVERTHROW OF THE HAWAIIAN MONARCHY AND THE UNITED STATES’ INVOLVEMENT HISTORY 489 DR. MANN COOPERATING PROFESSOR: DR.

ABSTRACT The overthrow of the Hawaiian Monarchy took place on January 17, 1893. One of the debates surrounding this event is the involvement of the United States through its representative, Minister John L. Stevens. 1874-1894 was an unstable period in Hawaii. This paper discusses the reign of King Kalakaua (1874-1891), the economic relationship between Hawaii and the United States after the Reciprocity Treaty of 1876, the Revolution of 1887 that resulted in a new constitution, the overthrow of Queen Liliuokalani in 1893, and the United States investigation of the events through the Blount Report and the Morgan Report. It shows that the United States was not a conspirator in the overthrow of the Hawaiian Monarchy and that it was the result of the process of imperialism.
