A very interesting Hawaiian idol is in this museum ; the in- 

 scription states that it was given to the Ashmolean Museum by 

 the Rev. Andrew Bloxam, M.A., Worcester College, Oxford, in

 33.6 inches high and was obtained from the Hale o Keawe at 

 Honauuau, Hawaii, at the time of the visit of the Blonde, on 

 which Bloxam was chaplain. Fig. 33.
