From The Polynesian. (Honolulu: Saturday, March 1, 1845. J.J. Jarves, Editor:
Saturday, the 22d ult., was the birthday of the man of all nations, the immortal Washington, whose fame grows brighter with every succeeding year, and the luster of whose example stimulates men of all races to emulate his virtues.
Salutes were fired, morning, noon and night, from the Brandywine, and the occasion otherwise celebrated by his countrymen, to whom all climes and among all people the name of Washington stirs within them the proud remembrance of their country.
