On September 6, 1895, the Executive Council of the On September 6, 1895, the Executive Council of the Republic of Hawaiʻi paroled Queen Liliʻuokalani to her home, Washington Place. She had been arrested earlier that year, on January 16, 1895. In early February, she was put on trial and convicted of “not informing the Republic of Hawaiʻi Government that her supporters were plotting to return her to power.” Her sentence of a $5,000 fine and five years of hard labor was immediately commuted to house arrest. She was imprisoned in the Makai Diamond Head room on the second floor of the Palace, then known as the Executive Building, from January 16, 1895, until her parole at 3:25 pm on September 6, 1895. The conditions of her parole included: • She was to “live in a quiet, unostentatious manner and to abstain from having political meetings or other gatherings at her home or attending such meetings elsewhere.” • She was not allowed to leave her home, Washington Place, overnight without written consent from the government. • Visitors were limited to personal friends and those conducting business. • Her staff was fixed at 13 men, 8 women, and their children. In February 1896, as a reward for faithfully abiding by these restrictions, her parole was modified, granting her permission to leave Oʻahu with written consent from the Republic of Hawaiʻi. On October 23, 1896, Queen Liliʻuokalani was pardoned, and all restrictions on her freedom were lifted. Photo Credit: Wiki Commons
Original copies of Queen Liliʻuokalani’s music, Original copies of Queen Liliʻuokalani’s music, including her beloved composition “Aloha ʻOe,” are housed in the Hawaii State Archives. On this original copy of “Aloha ʻOe,” she notes that it was composed at Maunawili in 1878 and played by the Royal Hawaiian Band in San Francisco in August 1883, where it gained immense popularity. The band arrived in San Francisco on August 15 to participate in the Knights Templars conclave ceremonies. A correspondent for the Pacific Commercial Advertiser reported, “The band is in great demand and greatly praised. It has been giving on average three performances a day. The people only want the Kanaka band.” Another correspondent echoed this praise: "The Hawaiian Band has done themselves great credit. Not only are they skillful as musicians, but their deportment is excellent, and it is conceded that they are the best musicians that ever visited this state." PC: Hawaii State Archives

Hauʻoli Lā Hānau e Queen Liliʻuokalani, born o Hauʻoli Lā Hānau e Queen Liliʻuokalani, born on this day in 1838. “The extinct crater or mountain which forms the background to the city of Honolulu is known as the Punch-bowl; at its base is situated the Queen’s Hospital…Very near to its site, on Sept. 2, 1838 I was born. My father’s name was Kapaʻakea, and my mother was Keohokālole... Immediately after my birth I was wrapped in the finest soft tapa cloth, and taken to the house of another chief, by whom I was adopted…This was, and indeed is, in accordance with Hawaiian customs…At the age of four years I was sent to what was then known as the Royal School, because its pupils were exclusively persons whose claims to the throne were acknowledged.”- Queen Liliʻuokalani Today, we celebrate and remember the life and legacy of Lydia Liliʻu Loloku Walania Wewehi Kamakaʻeha, the eighth and last ruling monarch of the Hawaiian Kingdom.
