TEL.; NO. 31 B0O g HAT MANUFACTURER, Castle & Cooke. Eie il Financial Aaen AND NOTARY PUBLIC. IN YEARS 1817-18 Spanish Warships Were in Hawaiian Waters. So Written in Journal of Capt. Jas. Hunnewell-Patriot Ships and Prizes Securing Pirates. A number of kamaainas were a.sked yesterday if a Spanish man-of-war had ever visited this port. None of the old-timers could recollect ever seeing the Hag of Spain showing from the peak of a fighting craft here. Mentioa is made in brief memoirs of Capt. James Hunnewell who was here in 1S17-1S in the brig Bordeaux Packet, of Spanish ships in Hawaiian waters. The memorandum kept by Captain Hunnewell was furnished in copy by his son, James F. Hunnewell, of Bos ton, to the Hawaiian Historical So ciety. Here is what is said of the Spanish ships; the year being ISIS: "Monday, April 13, at Honolulu, we hear a story of a Spanish ship being at Hawaii and that she is sold to the King. "May 21, by the Bengal from the Spanish main, we hear of a brig at Ha waii, prize to the ship ender patriot colors; likewise that the ship was formerly a privateer; that the crew, having driven the officers on shore, have since been pirating till they gave their ship to the King of Hawaii. "June 21, Sunday. The. brig that an chored off the harbor last evening proves to be the prize belonging to the patriots at Hawaii. They report they are bound for Canton, but in the course cf the day they told contradictory stor ies. They have been collecting seed and I expect they are bound to some uninhabited place. "Monday, 22. The patriots are pick ing up supplies and making inquiries. The brig got away for Kauai. They show no colors and have no papers. She has 20 men and two guns. The act ing captain is J. Cribin. Captain Turner, or McDonald, late of the ship, is on hoard. "July 16. Last evening .the patriot brig anchored off the harbor from Kauai. "July 24. The patriot brig sailed for Kacai. Their stories are contradictory. "August 22. The brig Clarion,, Cap tain Cuisely, on a sealing voyage, last from Hawaii, has arrived. They in form us of a Spanish patriot frigate being at Hawaii, securing the pirates. "August 23. The ship Enterprise from Hawaii, confirms the report of the Spanish patriot frigate being at Hawaii securing the pirates, and say that she is coming to Oahu. "September 11. In the afternoon two Spanish patriot ships anchored off the harbor, last from Hawaii." In 1818 there -were serious disturban ces in the American colonies of Spain since become independent, nd it ap pears that operations incident to the revolutions were located to not a small extent in the neighborhood of the Isl ands. The Knife Man. The South Sea Islander arrested while chasing about Kapuukolo with a knife Wednesday night, was very calm yesterday and was allowed the freedom of the police station yard. He stated that he had been crazy on Wednesday. It was decided best to keep the fellow in jail for a. time, to see if he should take it into his head to take another fit. He will probably be released to day if he shows no further signs of murderous intent. Putting in Stone. Stone by the ton is rapidly going in to the foundation for the new four story Judd building, at the corner of Fort and Merchant. Contractor Fred. Harrison is directing the work, under the supervision of Architect Trapha gen. Mr. Harrison is employing a large number of men and teams. Consider able of the preparation of the stone is done at the quarry, the finishing alone being undertaken on the ground, where the space is rather limited. Improve With Practice. A great improvement, in the batting and bowling qf the cricketers, is now noticed due to their semi-weekly prac tice on the grounds of the British Com missioner. The Honolulu XI will now be able to hold their own with any team that may be on an English man-of-war. Beginning from a week tomor row there will be a practice match ev ery Saturday afternoon on the old baseball grounds. Shakespeare Club There was a good attendance at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Atherion last evening of the members of Miss Mc Donald's jenior class of Shakesoeare readers and students. Othello was re sumed and a most interesting session held. The play will be finished at tQ3 meeting next Tuesday evening and parts will be assigned for another. All the members of the class are much pleased with the methods of the direc tor of the studv. Baseball. Bluejackets off the Bennington were on the league ball field at Makiki yes terday afternoon. The gunboat's nine is getting into fine fettle and may soon issue a challenge. In the meantime all interested in the National game are looking forward with interest to the meeting of the Regiments and Hono lulus tomorrow afternoon. The exhibi tion should be a first-class one.
