Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Old Hawaiian Carvings: Found in a Cave on the Island of Hawaii To one familiar with these caves the vestibule, as it may be called, is the least interesting portion; it is a tunnel of varying Size and irregular section, Often shrink ing to a passage hardly large enough to admit a man's body, then expanding into a hall of considerable height, and with numerous ramifications, some small as rat holes, others of a size to admit a horse. In the old and important caves these side passages are generally walled tip, and originally this was done so effectually as to conceal the entrance, but earthquakes and time have loosened the dry stone wall, and it is now possible to detect it, unless the deposited and decaying bones cover it, and these one hesitates to disturb unnecessarily. Behind these walls lie the interests Of the cave. One may pull down with great labor in the dark and ill ventilated cave the carefully placed wall and find in the chamber behind it perhaps nothing, perhaps a few crumbling bones or a decayed calabash.
