The passage recounts repeated attempts to annex the kingdom, with King Kamehameha’s illness and death ending the first treaty in 1864. It notes American Mr Greggs drafting a treaty in 1954, British protests, and France and Britain pushing anew before the king’s death halted progress. A second treaty was negotiated in 1893 but not acted on by the Senate, and President Cleveland later withdrew it.
