Garvin, D. D. Its members amount to one hundred and seven, and the Sunday school to eighty-five.

Queen Emma’s Hospital is a large institution and is just outside the tewn, under the Punch Bowl. This hos- pital was named for the wife of Kamehameha IV., and both the King and Queen contributed largely to the sub- scription for the erection of this building. It accommo- dates over one hundred persons, and is nearly always full, as it is the only hospital for all taces. The Sailors’ Home, situated on the Esplanade, facing _ the new market building, is a very attractive structure in - design, being of brick, and two stories high. Many lead- : ing citizens take a deep interest in this enterprise. _ cComicbooks.é * ‘e Se
