All columns on page 2 are black-bordered for the death of Mrs. C. R. Bishop. She was of the royal family of the Kingdom of Hawaii and a well-known philanthropist. At her death, her estate was the largest private landownership in the Hawaiian Islands, comprising approximately 9% of Hawaii's total area.
Four pages, large folio size, this issue has many archival repairs at folds, margins, and elsewhere. A few repairs are made to small portions with are lacking. Somewhat "2nd rate" due to the condition, Folder size noted is for the issue folded in half.
