2. The 1864 Constitution changed the structure of the Legislative Assembly of the kingdom of Hawaii from bicameral to unicameral. ^[15] Representatives, previously elected annually, ^[16] were elected biennially. ^[17] The number of Representatives (a minimum of 24 and maximum of 40) did not change. ^[17] Nobles, still appointed by the King for life (or to serve at his pleasure), were reduced in number from a maximum of 30 (1852) to 20 (1864). ^[18] The 1887 Constitution returned the Legislative Assembly to a bicameral model. The most significant change in the legislature was the requirement for Nobles to be elected for six-year terms. ^[19] The 1894 Constitution of the Republic of Hawaii continued a bicameral legislature, ^[20] with the first session of the new legislature to occur in February 1896. The first general elections (to take place biennially thereafter) would take place in September 1897. ^[21] The Senate and House of Representative each had 15 members. ^{[22] [23]} Under the new constitution, Senators currently serving or newly elected served until the second general election in September 1899. The first set of new senators were elected for 2, 4, or 6 year terms. Subsequent elections would be for six-year terms. ^[22] Representatives elected after the ratification of the new constitution served until the first general election, and then were up for re-election biennially. ^[23] It was also forbidden for any legislator to hold another government office (with the exception of the cabinet and Council of State), this included notaries and appointed agent for the government. ^[24]
3. Out of 11 candidates running for office, only the top four were elected. Brown came in fifth. ^[27]
4. Brown was the inaugural office holder of Deputy Attorney General through 1880. The title was not in use again until 1888. ^[31]
5. Responsibilities and qualifications very similar to that of a notary public.
6. A suit filed in November 1916 to remove Brown as a trustee of the Lanai Company stated he was "incapable of understanding or attending to any business, is unable to speak, read and write and is wholly incapable of carrying out the object and the understanding of his trust agreement…" ^[97]
