Bird, Isabella L. (Isabella Lucy), 1831-1904

"The Hawaiian Archipelago"

"
{303} These circumstances are well-known throughout the islands, and
with the omission of some personal details, there is nothing which
may not be known by a larger public.
{335} According to Mr. Brigham, the products of the Hawaiian
volcanoes are: native sulphur, pyrites, salt, sal ammoniac,
hydrochloric acid, haematite, sulphurous acid, sulphuric acid,
quartz, crystals, palagonite, feldspar, chrysolite, Thompsonite,
gypsum, solfatarite, copperas, nitre, arragonite, Labradorite,
limonite.
{381} I venture to present this journal letter just as it was
written, trusting that the interest which attaches to volcanic
regions, will carry the reader through the minuteness and
multiplicity of the details.
{388} Since then, the Austins of Onomea were standing on a similar
ledge, when a sound as of a surge striking below, made them jump
back hastily, and in another moment the projection split off, and
was engulfed in the fiery lake.
{411} Since white men have inhabited the islands, there have been
ten recorded eruptions from the craters of Mauna Loa, and one from
Hualalai.
{422} Several letters are omitted here, as they contain repetitions
of journeys and circumstances which have been amply detailed before.
