The record — long form
Kalaupapa is the exile — the '66 first 12 who were dropped, the 8,000 who were sent. The Damien was the priest — the '73 arrival that was the first, the '89 death that's the disease. The church is the Philomena — the '76 wood and '88 stone, the building that he built.
The isolation was the law — the '65 act that was the prevention, the '69 end that's the century. The sainthood was the '09 — the canonization that's the recognition, the Hansen's that he caught. Kalaupapa is the endurance — the 'place to live' that he made, the peninsula that's the park.
The file keeps Kalaupapa: the 1866 exile, the Damien service, the Philomena church, and the 8,000 exiled.
Kalaupapa is the archive's Molokai file — the leprosy colony.
