The first photo is from a record held in the Hawai'i Digital archives, which was actually written 60 years after the overthrow. the Author of the book was the son of John Henry Soper, who would become responsible for disarming the Honolulu police and Royal guard.
the second photo however comes from a book written in 1898, "Hawai'i: our new possessions" written by John R. Musick".
I intend to look further into the incident which both reference. there are differences about the situation, but the content of the situation remains similar.
Just a heads up, there is no power. People coming in on Friday from the West Coast on Friday, it's best you push back. Visitors here, work with community members. Certain areas are opening but limited. Met a couple today who flew in yesterday being told it was fine, but they were not told the whole island is without power. They were on O'ahu previously and are leaving tomorrow.
Like them, if you feel like you should not be here, that feeling is completely understandable. If you want to kokua, help, you are free to do so.
