.... r Kupeke, I know this place which is being disputedbetween Kupeke and the government. There are 8 lo`i & house site.
When Kahekili was the Ali`I of these islands, and Kamehameha I was living, Kaeo was the konohiki and Kapeau was the tenant, until the time these islands became Kamehameha Is, after the battle of Kauaupali. Kuauamoa was the luna and Aikake was the konohiki, and Opeiwi cultivated these lo`i just after the return of kamehameha I to Hawaii and his death. When Opeiwi died, the work of cultivating passed to Kuapa /illeg./ and the house site, which is named Kapukalua was made by Kaaeae, who laid the rocks, and Haalou was the konohiki. The konohiki Kupeke did not oppose Kaaeae making this place and they continued living at the house site, but, concerning the lo`is, I did not see the l3ast bit of cultivation in the lo`is of which Hakuole is speaking, of the people mentioned in his testimony.
In 1851 I left Wailau and came here, but, on the death of Kinau in 1839, Kukamaewa was the one who cultivated this place. When he died, the cultivation of it passed to Mahina, that was the year 1848.
The boundaries are as follows:
Mauka by land of Mahina
Halawa by a stream
Makai by Kahoana mo`o
Kalaupapa by the `Ili of Kuele.
