Talk:Pākī

Historical novel sourced

I hear it is a good book with historic accuracy in main characters and culture, but a novel nonetheless.

Every one of the high chiefs were there, including pillars of the newly rooted Protestant Church, Queen Kaʻahumanu and Ulumāheihei Hoapili. Kōnia's childhood playmates, including, Harriet Nahienaena, the sister of the king and Kōnia's aunt; Elizabeth Kīnaʻu, the widow of Kamehameha II and Kōnia's "aunt"; Kuini Liliha, her husband's ex-wife; and other members of the court. Among these, John Adams Kuakini, the Governor of the island of Hawaiʻi; and Kekauonohi, another widow of Kamehameha II; sat in the front rows. Even Governor Boki risked being seen in a Protestant church. First, a group of eight men and women sang hymns of Zion. Pākī, with his witness, John Papa ʻĪʻī, stood at the altar, which was adorned by two large brass candlesticks and three red kahili; Konia, dressed in a white satin and embroidered silk gown and wearing a lei po'o of pale yellow feathers, came down the center isle followed by her witnesses, the High Chiefess Kapiʻolani and Kale Davis. Reverend Hiram Bingham conducted the ceremony and Kōnia and Pākī repeated their vows of devotion. Following the weding service they held a simple reception.[1]
