Honolulu in 1913 was the seat of territorial government, with the governor and legislature working from Iolani Palace, the former residence of the Hawaiian monarchs, near the center of town. West of the city, the U.S. Navy was building up Pearl Harbor, where a large dry dock had been under construction since 1909 and was not yet finished. The Oahu Railway carried passengers and freight out along the western coast, giving town families a way to reach the countryside and the beaches. Residents would have seen automobiles increasingly sharing the streets with horse-drawn wagons, a sign of how quickly the city was changing.
