They are compelled to witness many heartrending scenes and to be firm when most pitiable made for wives, sisters and sweet. hearts, or, perhaps, the aged mothers of condemned lepers attend the official meetings of the board of health, weeping and begging pit county to be allowed to go with the Stricken ones and share their exite At one time « few non- were allowed to accompany their husbands or brothers to Molokai as nurses, but such permission is not now given, there being a sufficient number of nurses in the Catholic and Protestant hospitals to care for the helpless lepers. Recently a marked instance of the devoted and affectionate nature of the Hawaiian was brought befe the board of health. A young man but recently married Was suspected of being a leper and ordered to be placed in the camp at Kalihi until he either de veloped further symptoms of leprosy or lost the to exile have pleas are jeper wor piclous symptoms he already had. His young wife, « Pretty Kanaka girl of perhaps 29, was broken-hearted and clung to her husband, CRYING, BITTERLY, When he taken away by the of- ficers. At the detention camp the suspects are allowed to wander about the large grounds, a closely boarded picket fence being the only enclos- ure, and the fricnds of the suspects are daily seen assembled outside the, fence, bringing offerings of wreaths | and flowers, or foodstuffs and fruit. Mary Mahial, the literal interpreta- tion of whose mame ts Mary “T!il- the-Botl,” was every day outside the fence, whispering and chatting with her young husband, who kissed her through the fence and tried to com- fort her. She brought him jets (gar- lands) of tropical flowers and either wept disconsolately or talked gaily of the time when he should be de- elared a non-leper and set free. Her changeable moods were pitiable to observe, The young bushand, who was a tall. sinewy brown fellow of comely features, tired to hide from her the fact that the suspicions of Gaily growing closer to confirma- tion, but one morning his name was pasted outside the gate among those on the list of the condemned the truth learned that her husband's name had been posted, she rushed past the guard at the detention camp gate and threw herself into his arma, de claring that she would go with him to Molokat. With gentle firmn she was taken away, but she refused to be comforted and she was TWICE DETROTED In attempts to stow away leper stear Her ariet wh be away from the with her hushand on beard was un- able, and when the lepers and their friends gave vent to th at drew whart control sorrow in the agonized leper wall ae lenped into the water after the steamer and tried to drown herself She was rescued and from that time lon the board of health was com pelled at each meeting to turn her away.
