Nūpepā O Mamaka `Aialo N Ū P E PĀ O M A M A K A ` A I A L O HAPPY HOLIDAYS!!!! Hope all is well with yourselves and families at this joyous time of the year. I’d like to extend the Board of Directors and my gratitude to Doug Ing, Bob Crowell and Willie Tallett for accepting the officer positions of Vice-President, Treasurer and Sec- retary. The latter two members have so graciously given up a lot of their time to continually keep the club running during leadership transitions. As retirement has brought more time to reflect on life, I like to remember, especially at Thanksgiving, the people who contributed so much to my growth and successes. As one once said, “Life isn’t measured by the accomplish- ments at the end but, by the route we traveled and the profound impact we have made on others along the way.” This is especially true of our many outstanding Mamaka Aialo brothers of the past as well as today. Many of them have made a profound impact on my life over the past 23 years. Their outstanding stature of integrity, character and leadership have made me proud to be Hawaiian and a brother of the club. Hopefully you feel that way too. Finally, may each and everyone of you have a joyous and safe Holiday with family and friends. Mahalo for your sup- port, involvement and contributions to Mamaka Aialo. And a special Mahalo to Hammie Ahlo for his untiring ef- forts to keep us informed by publication of Nupepa. Mele Kalikimaka and Hauoli Makahiki Hou!

We will be celebrating the Holidays in a club steeped in history and closely tied to a large segment of Hawaii’s community leaders. Oahu Country Club is a private club that has a tradition of being a comfortable place where members and their families enjoy the sport of golf and socializing with other members. OCC is known for many things: its stunning location, its elegant clubhouse, its beautiful kept grounds and its warm Hawaiian hospitality and its sense of place. It’s easy to drive right by OCC without noting its existence, the road leading in winds through a quiet residential neighborhood. Golf was introduced to Hawaii in the mid-1890s. In 1898, the year Hawaii was annexed by the United States, Samuel Mills Damon built the Island’s first golf course at his estate in Moanalua Valley. In 1904 a second course appeared in Manoa Valley but was quickly lost to residential development. With its demise imminent, a prominent local attorney, Wade Warren Thayer, decided to found a new golf course. In searching for a location for the club, the founders settled on 300 acres of land in Waolani Valley. King Kamehameha III deeded the Waolani land to Dr. Thomas C. B. Rooke, and it was with Rooke’s, heirs then living in England, that Thayer had to visit and negotiate a lease with a promise of an eventual sale. The property known as Waolani or “heavenly wilderness” traced its history to Hawaiian royalty. For services rendered King Kamehameha III conveyed Waolani to former ships doctor Thomas Rooke as part of the Great Mahele of 1849. Dr. Rooke had married Grace Kamaikai, the granddaughter of John Young, an English seaman famous for his assistance to Kamehameha I. Grace and her sister Fanny were descendants of Kame- hameha the Great. Fanny married high chief George Naea and in 1836 had a daughter, Emma, who was hanaied as an infant to the Rookes. Emma grew up in the Rooke home at Beretania and Nuuanu but the family often stayed at Waolani in a large Hawaiian style grass house, located somewhere in the vicinity of the present club house. Through her marriage to Kamehameha IV Emma became Queen. To make a long story short, Queen Emma [Emalani Kalanikaumakaamano Kaleleonālani Naʻea] died in 1885 and there were many claimants to her land. It was not until May of 1900 that the claims were settled by the Supreme Court of the Territory of Hawaii that title passed to Crewsell C. K. Rooke, nephew and godson of Thomas Rooke residing in England. <<< OCC’s founding stone—Pohaku Aumiumi. Legend has it that a menehune atop Pacific Heights threw it at a threatening giant and killed him. Hawaiians of old settled their disputes here. Holiday Issue 2010 NŪPEPĀ O MAMAKA `AIALO Page 3 N Ū P E PĀ O M A M A K A ` A I A L O The early problems encountered by the membership were overcome by savvy business men of the Territory of Hawaii such as Walter Dillingham, E. Faxton Bishop, Governor George R. Carter, all early presidents of the club augmented over the years by other community leaders. Early pictures of the club show little or no large tress, indigenous trees were mostly “shrubery”. Trees today are several species of eucalypts, casuarina [ironwood], melalucas – all imported. Many Norfolk Island Pine and Cook Island Pine were planted but winds knock these over so easily they are no longer planted. By 1913 the course was expanded to 18 holes and since has been lengthened, constantly reshaped and improved over the years to its present pristine beauty. Over the years thousands of trees have been planted on the course.. In 1978-79 over 1,000 trees were planted. Of course our activities will be in the club house, however, it is hoped that during the evening we will all have a chance to view the course surrounding the clubhouse. First Club House Mamaka ‘Aialo members have been active at Oahu Country Club over the years. In 1960 Ernie Kai was president of OCC. Hammie Ahlo had been a member of OCC for over 35 years and during that period served as a director. Others known to the writer as members of OCC are Rick Richardson, Bob Crowell, Oz Stender, Corbett Kalama, Tommy Lalakea, and Jim Scott.

Note: This article excerpted from “Hawaii Landscape” written by Sarah Pacheco and contributed by Dudley Makahanaloa. This year PBR HAWAII & ASSOCIATED INC. celebrates 40 years of serving Hawaii’s community planning and landscape architecture needs. But during a ceremony at the University of Hawaii last month, the firm was the one giving a gift, and a sub- stantial one at that. PBR founder/chairman emeritus Frank Brandt was joined by other principals of his company in the ceremony pre- senting the check for $40,000 to the UH School of Architecture. This amount will create an endowment for studetnts pursuing a focus or concentration in landscape architecture, environmental design or urban design—the first of its kind created by a land- scape architecture firm at the school. “To celebrate our 40 years of professional practice in Hawaii, the PBR partners felt an endowed scholarship directed to a Hawaii student to pursue a landscapre architecture degree would encourage local students to enter our profession of land- scapre architecture, community and environmental planning,” said Thomas Witten, PBR president. contributed by Dudley Makahanaloa Holiday Issue 2010 NŪPEPĀ O MAMAKA `AIALO Page 5 Uluwehi O Ke Kai Pane Mai He ho`oheno ke `ike aku So precious to witness Ua ala `oe e ku`u ipo You’ve awakened my love Ke kai moana nui lā The great expansive ocean Kāhea ana au iā `oe I call unto you Nui ke aloha e hi`ipoi nei A great affection is nourished within I ka lipolipo o ka pō In the darkness of the night Me ke `ala o ka līpoa With the fragrance of the lipo seaweed Pane mai, pane mai Answer me, answer me Hui Chorus He līpoa i pae i ke one The lipoa washes up on the sand Huli, huli kou kino Turn, turn your body [to me] Ke one hinuhinu lā The glistening sand Pumehana i ka la`i Pleasantly warm in the calm Wela i ka lā ke hehi a`e Scorching hot from the sun to sleep on Kīpuni `ia kāua me ke aloha You and I are encircled with love Mai mana`o he pono kēia Don’t think that this is what must be Pane mai, pane mai Answer me, answer me Ho`okohukohu e ka limu kohu The limu kohu so alluring Ho`omaha `oe i ku`u poli Rest here in my arms Ke kau i luna o nā moku lā Set atop the reef rocks Honi aku a honi mai I kiss you, you kiss me `O ia moku `ula lā e ho!

  • Margaret Todd the Watumull Founda'i'ion Oral History
    MARGARET TODD THE WATUMULL FOUNDA'I'ION ORAL HISTORY PROJECT Margaret Todd (1888 - ) In 1909 Miss Todd's father, Robert Todd, brought his wife and family to Hawaii from their native Scotland. An experienced dairy farmer, he had been asked to manage Samuel Mills Damon's home-dairy at Moanalua and, under his management, Moanalua Dairy produced "a prize baby milk" from pure Jersey cattle. At Sam Damon's request, Miss Todd immediately went to work as a clerk in the savings department of Bishop and Company bank (now First Hawaiian Bank) where she was employed until her retirement in 195). During World War I she became the first woman commercial teller in the Hawaiian Islands. Miss Todd, a born storyteller, has been an alert and astute observer of the social, cultural, and historical developments in Hawaii throughout her years here. Her recollections are a source of varied information about Scotland and Hawaii; about people and their interests; about events and their circumstances. Katherine B.

  • Broken Trust
    Introduction to the Open Access Edition of Broken Trust Judge Samuel P. King and I wrote Broken Trust to help protect the legacy of Princess Bernice Pauahi Bishop. We assigned all royal- ties to local charities, donated thousands of copies to libraries and high schools, and posted source documents to BrokenTrustBook.com. Below, the Kamehameha Schools trustees explain their decision to support the open access edition, which makes it readily available to the public. That they chose to do so would have delighted Judge King immensely, as it does me. Mahalo nui loa to them and to University of Hawai‘i Press for its cooperation and assistance. Randall W. Roth, September 2017 “This year, Kamehameha Schools celebrates 130 years of educating our students as we strive to achieve the thriving lāhui envisioned by our founder, Ke Ali‘i Bernice Pauahi Bishop. We decided to participate in bringing Broken Trust to an open access platform both to recognize and honor the dedication and courage of the people involved in our lāhui during that period of time and to acknowledge this significant period in our history. We also felt it was important to make this resource openly available to students, today and in the future, so that the lessons learned might continue to make us healthier as an organization and as a com- munity. Indeed, Kamehameha Schools is stronger today in governance and structure fully knowing that our organization is accountable to the people we serve.” —The Trustees of Kamehameha Schools, September 2017 “In Hawai‘i, we tend not to speak up, even when we know that some- thing is wrong.

  • Deconstructing the Descendants: How George Clooney Ennobled Old Hawaiian Trusts and Made the Rule Against Perpetuities Sexy
    Deconstructing The Descendants: How George Clooney Ennobled Old Hawaiian Trusts and Made the Rule Against Perpetuities Sexy By Professor Randall Roth The first and last sections of this essay are about a reel story. Of course I’m talking about the movie, The Descendants. It is based on a book of the same name, written by Kaui Hart Hemmings.1 The stories in the book and the film are quite similar, but not identical.2 The movie was nominated for five Academy Awards: best screenplay, best editing, best direction, best leading actor, and best movie. It won for best screenplay. If you saw the movie and stayed to watch all the credits—and I mean all the credits—you saw my name. It was the last name, on the last screen—appearing right after Dollar Rent-A-Car—but it was there. My involvement began three years earlier with a phone call from one of the movie’s producers wanting me to meet with Alexander Payne, the creative genius who was writing the script and in a few months would be directing the movie. I had not yet read the book, but the chance to meet with a successful moviemaker sounded like fun, so I invited both of them—Alexander and the producer—over to dinner. I also invited my Broken Trust3 co-author, federal judge Sam King, 1 Hemmings happens to be the daughter of longtime family friends. The Descendants is her first novel. Interestingly, the movie’s producers acquired the movie rights to the book while it was just a pre-publication manuscript.

    PAU PAGE 224 11=15-14 1778 ROAD TO STATEHOOD 1959 The following is quoted from www.freehawaii.org: History 1 - The Beginning to Pa‘ao All quotes, unless otherwise noted, are taken from Daniel Kikawa's excellent book, Perpetuated in Righteousness. The language of the Polynesian peoples is basically one language, the missionary translators who first assigned a written spelling for the different island groups, heard the words differently and represented these sounds that they heard with different letters. For instance the Hawaiian word for 'woman' is wahine (vah-hee-nee), the Tongan word for 'woman' is fahine (fah-hee-nee). Much like the differences between American English and British English - there is understanding but differences in accents and idioms. So, the oral traditions of the Polynesian peoples, with minor differences, give a remarkably similar account of their history and beliefs. There are Polynesians today, who can recite their lineage back to one common ancestor. Here are some excerpts from those accounts. Note that these predate the coming of the missionaries and were not influenced by Biblical record. These legends include stories from Hawaii, Tahiti, Samoa, Tonga, Marquesa and the Maori of New Zealand. Fornander (leading foreign source of Hawaiian history) said, ". I learned that the ancient Hawaiians at one time worshipped one god, comprised of three beings, and respectively called Kane, Ku and Lono, equal in nature, but distinctive in attributes..." This Polynesian god had many titles, but one name, too holy to be mentioned in casual conversation and this name was`Io. The first group of Proto-polynesians probably left the middle east around BC 2300, about the time of the tower of Babel heading toward Sumatra.

    An Autumn Evening with Scottish Folk Tales and Ghost Stories Old beliefs have lingered long in the hills and glens and closes of Scotland. From clachan and shieling come tales of fairies who haunt green knolls and grey cliffs, of mermaids and witches, apparitions of the dead and the devil, magical animals, and incredible monsters in loch and river and sea, as well as phantasms of the past in dark corners of old stone houses.

  • Kate Field in Hawaii, 1895–1896
    gary scharnhorst “ I Wish to Know More About the Islands”: Kate Field in Hawaii, 1895–1896 Though she is virtually unknown today, Kate Field (1838 –1896) was “one of the best-known women in America” during her life, according to her obituary in the New York Tribune.1 A member of the expatri- ate community in Florence, Italy in the late 1850s, she befriended the Brownings, the Trollopes, and Walter Savage Landor while she was still in short dresses. One of the fi rst women to contribute to the Atlantic Monthly, she covered the eastern leg of Charles Dickens’ fi nal speaking tour of the U.S. for the New York Tribune in 1867–68. A popular lecturer and prolifi c writer, author of the best-selling travel books Hap -Hazard (1873) and Ten Days in Spain (1874), she was also the model for the character of the journalist Henrietta Stackpole in Henry James’ novel The Portrait of a Lady (1881).2 More to the point, Field traveled to Hawai‘i on assignment for the Chicago Times-Herald in November 1895 ostensibly to “study” the question of annexation. Her 33 columns from O‘ahu over the next four months, particularly her interview with President Sanford Dole, were widely quoted across the U.S. Unfortunately, their historical importance has never been recognized. In effect, they offer a series of snapshots of the short-lived Gary Scharnhorst is Distinguished Professor of English at the University of New Mexico. He is editor of the journal American Literary Realism published by the University of Illinois Press, and editor in alternating years of the research annual American Literary Scholar- ship, published by Duke University Press.
