On the morning of October 29th, 1889, the body of Goto was found hanging by a rope from a telephone pole. As one of the \u00e2\u20ac\u0153first ship\u00e2\u20ac\u009d immigrants from Japan to the island of Hawaii, Goto worked on a sugar plantation before saving enough money to open a general store. Being fluent in both English and Japanese, he never forgot his fellow plantation workers and served as an interpreter and adviser to their labor concerns. His store, which competed with white businesses, also served as an informal meeting place for his community. Evidently, Goto\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s activities drew the ire of the white men with plantation connections who lynched him. During the subsequent trial, four suspects in the case were persecuted under \u00e2\u20ac\u0153manslaughter\u00e2\u20ac\u009d charges and given lenient punishments. Two assailants escaped and another was granted a pardon for the crime. <\/p>\n<p>According to Gaylord Kubota, no mention of the lynching accompanied the obituaries of two of the guilty parties.
