Sharpshooters Overlooking Battle Scene Snipe Rioters One by One as They Attempt to Slash Wounded Police Lying Unconscious on Road 1 By CHARLES EDWARD HOGUE (Staff Correspondent) HANAPEPE, Kauai, Sept. 10. Fifteen rough board caskets containing the bodies of the Filipino victims of yesterday's battle here between the strikers and the sheriff's posse were lowered into a trench on a sandy hillside overlooking the alluring Hanapepe Bay at 11 o'clock this morning, while in thef Chinese graveyard, one hundred yards distant, burial services were being held over the body of P,oliceman Ah Boo, one, of the four of the sheriff's deputies slain. . The funerals were held without any attempt at disturbance, although fear of a possible outbreak caused authorities to guard all avenues by which Filipino strikers from other parts of the islands might have reached the cemetery. Only a few Filipino men are to be seen in this district today and they are not strikers. All the strikers who escaped alive from yesterday's battle were in jail, in hospital xr in hiding. The women and children bereaved by the outbreak or left destitute and alone by the imprisonment of their men. wandered about the Hanapepe strikers camp or along the road viewing the scene of yesterday's tragedy or bidding farewell to their dead at the cemetery. Families Without Food When morning dawned on the camp the deserted women and little ones were without food. News of their plight was carried to the managers of Makaweli and Koloa plantations, who at once sent two days supplies to the camp. Most of the women gratefully accepted these alms, although the final words of the strikers leaders when taken away to jail were warnings against accepting any aid from the enemy. Waimea Hall, temporarily converted into a morgue, was a scene of tragedy this morning when .Filipino women approached in timid groups in an endeavor to learn whether their loved ones were living or dead. The men had been rounded up so quickly after the attack on the posse that none of the women were sure throughout the long hours of the night of the fate of her husband. About 10:30 o'clock in the morning two automobile trucks arrived and bore the Filipino bodies to the Roman Catholic, cemetery. Father Herman came from Makaweli to conduct the services for the dead of his faith. Rev. G. R. Runes of the Filipino Methodist Mission of the Waimea district was also in attendance.

Searchers find mass grave of 16 Filipinos killed in '24 Hawaii strike
October 29, 2019
A cement marker appears to be near the site, but it only shows a date of birth and the death date of Sept. 9, 1924, without naming a person.
HANAPEPE, Hawaii — A research team on Oct. 20 believes it has found the mass grave of 16 Filipino strikers killed in what became known as the 1924 Hanapepe Massacre on Kauai.
Sixteen Filipino plantation strikers and four deputized civilians were killed in the massacre on Sept. 9, 1924.
On Sunday, a team of the Filipino American National Historical Society Hawaii State Chapter's Kauai committee aided by a technician and an engineer found a trench at the Hanapepe Filipino Cemetery with what they described as "12 anomalies," according to a report by West Hawaii Today.
Ground-penetrating radar equipment and a divining rod detected the ground anomalies lined parallel to one another.
The anomalies believed to contain the remains of 12 of the 16 strikers were about a foot away from a small makeshift concrete marker with no names and only dates: "Born 1886. Died Sept. 9. 1924."
"I'm excited and anxious at the same time. The primitive and modern technologies brought closure to a big missing piece to a major tragedy in Kauai's history and Filipino American history," Mlke Miranda of the FANHS chapter told the news media.
