Is Anthony D. Allen Site haunted?

No claims are filed here — the record keeps this place for its documented history, not for a haunting on file.

The record — long form

Allen is the sailed — the 'letter home' that's the '22 wrote, the 'pirates, shipwreck' that's the decade's seas. The 'bought himself' is the earned — the '$300 note' that's the Catherine sailed, the 'twelve months' that's the freedom's price. The 'Kamehameha's steward' is the became — the 'six acres Waikiki' that's the king's gift, the 'first bowling alley' that's the islands' opened.

The 'former master' is the escaped — the 'ran into him' that's the recapture tried, the 'sea again' that's the freedom kept. The 'Washington Middle' is the stood — the 'Allen' that's the land's now, the 'school built' that's the his legacy. Allen is the remarkable — the 'enslaved to advisor' that's the arc made, the 'Hawaii's freedom' that's the far shore.

The file keeps Allen: the letter home, the bought freedom, the king's land, and the school's site.

Anthony D. Allen is the archive's Hawaii file — the slave who became the king's steward.

Why this file matters

Anthony D. Allen is the archive's Hawaii file — the freedom found furthest from slavery.

A school keeps its ground — the file's suggestion being that Allen's hold is the furthest: the 'Waikiki acres' that's the king's gift, the 'letter home' that's the journey told, and the 'firsts' that's the legacy built.
