 Hulihee Palace
Ten years after the founding of the Daughters of Hawaii the cool summer home of the beloved Queen Emma was in danger of becoming a baseball diamond.
The Queen Emma Summer Palace was acquired by the Daughters of Hawai'i in 1913, narrowly avoiding the demolition of the house and construction of a baseball field on the grounds.
The Territorial Government granted the Daughters the use of the home and 22,750 square feet of the grounds as long as the home was used and maintained as a museum.

 Holidays & Festivals
Queen Emma spent many happy and memorable moments with her husband, King Kamehameha IV and their young son, Prince Albert Edward at the "Hanaiakamalama." The young prince was an instant and intimate part of the royal couple's private life and he was taken nearly everywhere they went.
It is sad to note, however, that the little prince who rekindled the hopes of the Hawaiians for a successor to the throne, died in 1862 at the tender age of four.
The Daughters of Hawaii, an organization founded in 1903 to perpetuate and preserve the language, culture and historic sites of Hawaii, intervened and set about restoring Queen Emma's home.
