Honolulu, January 14, 1873

R.A. Lyman, Esquire, Commissioner of Boundaries &c, &c., Hilo, Hawaii

Dear Sir:
You are hereby respectfully requested to define and settle the boundaries of the following named lands on Hawaii belonging to Madam Akahi.

Kealia, Ahupuaa of South Kona bounded:
North by Kauleoli belonging to Hanalii Palanolilo
South by Kealia belonging to R. Keelikolani
Mauka by Keauhou belonging to Estate Kamehameha V
Makai by the sea.

Keei 2 Ahupuaa in South Kona bounded:
North by Kahauloa belonging to C.R. Bishop
South by Keei 2s belonging to Mrs. C. R. Bishop
Mauka by Keauhou belonging to Estate Kamehameha V
Makai by the sea.

Makalawena Ahupuaa in North Kona bounded both North and south, I think, by lands belonging to the Government
Mauka by [left blank and makai by the sea.

Ulupaalua Ili in several pieces in Niulii, Kohala, bounded. The surveys of the above made by Kaelemakule, and the notes of the surveys of all except Keei, are in the hands [page 226] of S.C. Wiltse, who will act on Akahi's behalf in the settlement of the boundaries. Akahi's husband, Kapaa, may be in Kona, either it [at or in] Kealia or Keei, when you go there. Please enquire for him, and let him know what you have to do, so that he may assist you if possible. He may have the notes of survey of Keei.

The remark upon the quality of the lands in Puna and the necessity for avoiding all expenses not absolutely necessary will apply also to these Kona lands, also especially to Makalawena. A few acres more of [or] less of aa on pahoehoe is not worth disputing about.

Mr. Wiltse ....
