(Hawaii) Kunuiakea, Albert K. Typed Document Signed "A.K. Kunuiakea," 2pp, 13 "x8", Oahu, 1894 Apr. 13. Very good. Typed in purple ink; light overall toning; one fold on each page is cleanly separated, and another fold partially separated--both easily repaired. Kunuiakea, the illegitimate son of King Kamehameha III, appoints Bruce Cartwright as his attorney, giving Cartwright full power and authority to exercise the general control and supervision over all of his "lands, tenements and hereditaments…." Cartwright was the son of Alexander Cartwright, sometimes called "The Father of Modern Baseball"; Alexander left New York in 1849 and settled in Hawaii, where he became the fire chief of Honolulu.
Estimated Value $400 - 600.
