Description

The Polynesian, Honolulu, April 7, 1860: "Game of Ball. Quite an interesting game of ball came off yesterday afternoon on the Esplanade between the Punahoa Boys and the Town Boys... The boys of a larger growth, among whom were some of the leading merchants and their clerks, had a game of good old-fashioned base ball on Sheriff Brown's premises, makai..."

"makai" is a Hawaiian word for "sea-ward side". Brown was sheriff of Honolulu in 1860. Punahoa School was founded in 1841. Many of Hawaii's leading families sent their children there.
