Talk:John Lot Kaulukoʻu

Quote
In Twigg-Smith's book, there is this quote attributed to him: annexation “I regard Annexation,”...."the best thing that could happen for Hawai‘i, both for the native and foreign population . . . I rejoice heartily that it has come.”". I can't seem to find this exact quote which is supposed to be in the San Francisco Chronicle from July 28, 1898. KAVEBEAR (talk) 17:09, 20 June 2019 (UTC)
 * There is an interview attributed to William Chauncey Wilder that doesn't exactly fit but is close. So I wonder if Twigg-Smith misquoted Kaulukoʻu? User:Maile66 do you know if you can track down the origin of the quote?KAVEBEAR (talk) 17:09, 20 June 2019 (UTC)


 * Trying to jog my memory. Somewhere in the recent months I saw a quote that was pretty close to that.  It wasn't Twigg-Smith.  And it doesn't seem to me like it was Kaulukoʻu. But I do believe it was connected to someone on Kalakaua's privy council.  And I do remember thinking how odd it was for this to have come from someone connected to Kalakaua. Perhaps an obit.  That I recall, my last research was trying to connected David Kinimaka to 20/21 century Honolulu entertainer Iva Kinimaka.;   I don't remember having time to do research since I was looking into Kinimaka.  I have the feeling that might be one of those quotes attributed to a lot of people.  That quote just sticks in my head that I have seen it within the last year, but can't tie it down right now. — Maile  (talk) 19:03, 20 June 2019 (UTC)
