A fact from Albert Pierce Taylor appeared on Wikipedia's Main Page in the Did you know column on 25 May 2017 (check views). The text of the entry was as follows:
A little more than a month ago, Mr. Albert Pierce Taylor, Trustee and Secretary of the Hawaiian Historial Society and Librarian of the Archives of Hawaii, passed away—taken suddenly in the midst of his work. Mr. Taylor had lived a very active life, in which adventure as well as quiet vicissitude formed a part. His interest in the history of these islands began even before he became a resident of Hawaii. During a third of a century he lived here, absorbing the atmosphere of the islands and acquiring an extensive knowledge of the general facts and intimate details of Hawaiian history. A fluent and entertaining writer, Mr. Taylor contributed constantly to local publications as well as to mainland periodicals. His more serious work is to be found in his popular book, Under Hawaiian Skies, and in articles contributed in recent years to the Paradise of the Pacific and the proceedings of the Hawaiian Historical Society. For six years Mr. Taylor served this Society zealously as a Trustee and for the last two years held also the post of Recording and Corresponding Secretary. His interest in the work of the Society was constant and keen.
It is therefore Resolved, by the Hawaiian Historical Society, that we note with deep regret the death of our late colleague, Mr. Taylor; and that we express to Mrs. Taylor our sincere condolence and sympathy with her in the bereavement which she has suffered though the loss of her companion of many years;
Resolved, that a copy of this resolution and the accompanying minute be transmitted to Mrs. Taylor, and that they be printed in the next annual report of the Society.
