ARRESTING A PRINCE

Kinau was a tall and portly chiefess, weighing from 250 to 300 pounds. Her features were coarse and unattractive, yet not forbidding. She then had three sons and a daughter. Two of the sons became the Kings Kamehameha IV and V. An older son Moses, died in youth, after having developed a violent and uncontrollable nature, of which I once witnessed a sample in his childhood. We were embarking for Kauai early in 1839 in company with Mr. and Mrs. Amos F. Cooke and the old governor of Kauai, Kaikioewa, who was the official Kahu, or guardian of little Prince Moses. The youngster had made up his mind to go with his guardian. He came down to Robinsons' wharf where we were about to set sail, and laid wharf where we were about to set sail, and laid hold of the side of the brig, yelling and howling. His guardian all the time continued to dissuade and expostulate. No one dared to use force upon the furious child. This continued for more than two hours, until nearly night. Finally his father, the governor Kekuanaoa, sent down a file of soldiers with orders to arrest and convey the little prince home to the palace near by. This released us from further detention, and we set sail. It was a tiresome, but very curious experience. To Mr. and Mrs. Cooke it was doubtless an instructive experience, since about a year later, as I think, they were placed in charge of the Royal School for the children of the chiefs, over whom they maintained a family rule of gentle but firm discipline, to which the little princes had been strangers.
