Occupation of Hawaii by the British...



Item # 685484

December 01, 1843

DAILY NATIONAL INTELLIGENCER, Washington, D.C., Dec. 1, 1843

* British occupation of the Hawaiian Islands

 Page 3 has a full column headed: "From The Sandwich Island", now known as the Hawaiian Islands, which concerns the Paulet Affair.
This was the unofficial five-month occupation of Hawaii by a British naval officer. It was ended by the arrival of American warships sent to defend Hawaii's independence. 
Four pages, very nice condition.
