Brs. Snider and Winchester set out for Lahaina. Br. W. is on his way to Honolulu. Brs. MacBride and Lawson left before breakfast for Makawao. Kaunaea, a native lawyer, came to see us. We had a good talk with him on Mormonism; he is believing, I think. In the evening, Napela, his wife and his wife’s sister, Nelly, came in to hear the brethren sing. Spent the evening pleasantly. I forgot to mention my going down to see Kahulua to see Mr. J. Fern about his boys coming to school. He agreed to send the oldest one (about 5 years old), and is to pay at the rate of 3 dollars per week and pay a quarter of a year in advance.
