1843rif. 68824Lahainaluna: Seminary Press 1843. Early Hawaiian Laws Including Those Relating to Whaling and Divorce An exceedingly rare early Hawaiian imprint. The work is a supplement to the English translation of Ke Kumu Kanawai a Me Na Kanawai o Ko Hawaii Pae Aina Forbes 1337. It contains ten laws and resolutions approved by Hawaiian King Kamehameha III and the premier Kekauluohi "at the council house at Luaehu Lahaina Maui Sandwich Islands." The laws and resolutions themselves deal with land leases taxes on land and pets the timing of the evening guns divorce whaling public auctions tonnage dues ship clearances the removal of duties on gold and silver exports and the payment of jurors. The laws had to be submitted for approval to the British commission that exercised temporary control over Hawaii between February and July 1843 and it is noted in the penultimate paragraph "All the foregoing laws.will take effect after being communicated to the British Commission and proclaimed at each of the principal islands." The resolution on "Respecting Divorced Persons" is especially interesting. This resolution allowed among other things all "divorced persons" not just men to remarry if their divorce was granted before the 1840 Constitution was adopted. The 1840 Hawaiian Constitution had placed certain restrictions on remarriage for both divorced men and women. For instance in cases of adultery the guilty party whether a man or a woman was forbidden to remarry while the former partner was alive. An absence of four years whether through criminal confinement or overseas service or some other reason was often grounds for divorce and remarriage for the party who remained in Hawaii. If a husband tried to kill his wife or vice versa the offending party was not allowed to remarry. The present resolution provided for all those who divorced before the 1840 Constitution to remarry no matter the reason for the divorce. The resolution regarding whaling ships is also notable. It allows whalers to barter or sell up to $200 worth of goods duty free "for the purpose of procuring refreshments." If a whaling ship barters or sells more than the $200 threshold "they shall pay the customary duties." This is likely a reaction to laws or regulations set down in other Pacific ports during the golden age of the whaling industry when Hawaii was an important port of call for ships of all nations. "The edition is unknown. This is not recorded in reports of either the 1843 or 1844 General Meetings. Because of its small size it was doubtless part of the category 'small jobs ship lists government protests &c.' in the 1844 minutes" - Forbes. Forbes lists no references for the work and the location of only eight copies all in Hawaii. OCLC locates copies to only three institutions: Yale University University of Hawaii at Manoa and Bishop Museum Library. An uncommon and elusive early Hawaiian legal work that touches upon women's issues and the whaling industry at the height of its prominence in the world economy. 12mo. Original printed self-wrappers. Small chip at head of spine just separating at lower fold minor foxing. Very good. FORBES 1393. OCLC 862079031. unknown books

rif. 57563Honolulu: Printed for the proprietor Peter A. Brinsmade 1838-1839. Complete Run of an Early Hawaiian Periodical A complete run of "the first literary and scientific periodical published in the Hawaiian Islands" Forbes. THE HAWAIIAN SPECTATOR was a short-lived periodical based in Honolulu originally printed in parts. Two volumes of four parts each were printed; a third volume was planned for 1840 and had begun soliciting articles but never came to fruition. The SPECTATOR's proprietor was Peter A. Brinsmade a Connecticut native and the "& Company" part of Ladd & Company. Ladd & Co. was an early Hawaiian business partnership notable for establishing the first commercial sugarcane plantation on the islands. Brinsmade also traveled throughout Europe on their behalf looking for investors in an international land speculation scheme. THE HAWAIIAN SPECTATOR contains a wide array of articles related to Hawaii and the South Pacific in general. The contents by a diverse group of authors including Hiram Bingham and translated works by native Hawaiians discuss Hawaii's history geology environment medicine education literature language and more. Some pieces in the first volume include "Sketch of Christmas Island" by Capt. George Benson accompanied by an engraved map of the island made at the Lahainaluna Press a similar article on Ocean Island with a map prepared in the same fashion and "Introduction of the Gospel to Northwest America" by Hiram Bingham with a long discussion of the Whitman and Spaulding mission and featuring printed music with lyrics in English and Hawaiian. The second volume contains a similar miscellany of articles concerning Hawaii and its peoples as well as J.J. Jarves' "Overland Journey in Central America" and a description of the voyage of the French frigate L'Artemise to Hawaii and the imperialist saber-rattling by which it was accompanied. The greater part of the second volume is devoted to the serial publication of A BRIEF MEMOIR OF THE LIFE OF MR. DAVID DOUGLAS WITH EXTRACTS FROM HIS LETTERS. This is a complete reprint in effect the second edition of a work originally published by Sir William Hooker in THE COMPANION TO THE BOTANICAL MAGAZINE in 1836. Douglas of Douglas Fir fame was a distinguished botanist who made two trips to the Pacific Northwest under the sponsorship of the Horticultural Society first in 1824-27 and again in 1829-34. In 1834 he sailed to Hawaii to continue his research but shortly after his arrival he "tripped" into a pit dug to catch wild cattle and was gored to death by a bull. His collections and work laid the foundation for botanical research in the region and are justly celebrated and discussed at length in McKelvey. Wagner-Camp and McKelvey both misidentify this printing the former calling it an edition of Douglas' JOURNAL rather than the MEMOIR and the latter suggesting that it is only a partial printing rather than the complete reprint it is. A valuable piece of relatively early Hawaiian printing and an important step in the public intellectual development of the islands also including a rare edition of Douglas' journals. THE HAWAIIAN SPECTATOR is rare even in fragments - volume one in particular was printed in only 600 copies. Two volumes. 8112104217-440pp. including printed music plus two folding maps and large folding table; viii494pp. plus one plate. Modern three-quarter calf and marbled boards spines gilt.
