iv Preface. when her bequest was adlively accomplishing her desires, her hus- band founded this Museum in the midst of the school at Kalihi, a western suburb of Honolulu. Although the founder of Kamehameha Schools needed no other monument than these schools it was pecul- iarly fitting that a memorial to her should be placed in their midst to preser^-e and exhibit to all who care to look relics of her people and the kindred races of the Pacific Ocean. This Museum, founded in 1889 and growing slowly for several years, has now attained an honorable position among Eth- nological Museums, nor has it wholly neglecfted the other obje(5l of its foundation but has done much for the Entomology and Orni- thology of the Hawaiian Islands as will be seen by subsequent publications. Twice during its first decade has it outgrown its buildings, twice have generous additions been made to its exhibition and work rooms. Foundations have been laid for a fine hall to contain Hawaiian exhibits. Both Museum and Schools try to illustrate the truth of the memorial inscription in the entrance hall of the former: ''BERNICE PA UAHI BISHOP: A bright light among her people, her usefulness S2irvives her mortal life.'' The Board of Trustees consists of: Sanford B. Dole, L.L.D. President. William O. Smith Vice President. Rev. Charles M. Hyde, D.D. Secretary. Henry Holmes Treasurer. Samuel M. Damon, Joseph O. Carter, William F. Allen. The Museum Staff consists at present of: William T. Brigham, A.M., A.A.S., etc. DireHor. Acland Wansey Curator. John J. Greene Printer. September, 1898. Taxidermist.
