Tuesday, June 3rd

The remains of yesterday's storm spent themselves this morning and the afternoon and evening were fine. Last night, however, was very wet and wild. Andy and Caughey got very wet in their tent. Henry, Hamilton & I betook ourselves to cutting the largest of the akiaki trees in the shrubbery and dismembered three, which will produce about a cord of firewood. The men busy at the drains, and Andy fixing the partition between hall and servants' room, which was set up temporarily at first. It was too unsettled a day for going to the Port, though this is one of my days. Little Sammy took his second lesson in reading, spelling & arithmetic.
