A report of Dr. Emerson on burying grounds within a radius of from two to
three miles from the center of Honolulu showed the condition of these respective places.
From the time of the first burial, on July 2, 1877, up until January 28, 1896, there had been 2,637 burials in
Makiki cemetery.
Kawaiahao was dwelt upon as being a very well kept burying ground. It had been given more attention of late.
Nuuanu cemetery was divided into two parts. The west side was about four and a half acres in extent. Of this there
remained about one acre of unsold lots. The majority of sold lots were unoccupied. The other side of Nuanu Cemetery
was pretty well used up.
The Strangers lot was well filled. Dr Emerson stated that there were twenty-one burying grounds within the limit
described. It was possible that there might be still others
