R.A. Lyman, Esquire, Commissioner of Boundaries for the Island of Hawaii, &c &c, Hilo.
Dear Sir;
I have respectfully to request that you will define and settle the boundaries of the following named lands (Ahupuaa) in South Kona, Hawaii, viz. Honaunau and Kahauloa belonging to me, Keei (1st I think) belonging to Mrs. Bishop (my wife) and Keei (2nd I think) belonging to Madam Akahi, the latter has been surveyed by Kaelemakule, the man who surveyed Puuepa and her other lands.
Kahauloa, was Kupakee's property. I now intend to have Mr. Wiltse do the surveying that may be necessary for the settlement of these boundaries. Unless there is some important difference regarding the interior boundaries you need not spend time (which is money) in taking testimony. If any dispute between Honaunau and Keei, I would prefer that you favor Keei, a little in preference to Honaunau.
Honaunau is bounded on the North by Mrs. Bishop's land Keei, south by Keelikolani's land; Keokea (and some other perhaps); makai by the sea and mauka I suppose by Keauhou.
Keei (1st) is bounded on the North by Akahi's land, Keei 1; South by Honaunau, makai by the sea and mauka by Keauhou.
Keei 2d (Akahi's land) is bounded on the north by Kahauloa; South by Mrs, Bishop's Keei, makai by the sea, and mauka by [left blank].
Kahauloa is bounded on the north by Kahauloa and Kealakekua; South by Keei 2d; makai by the sea and mauka by Keauhou.
Which will be sent to have the surveyor meet you at Honaunau, when you go to take the testimony or to make the survey as beforehand.
Very truly yours,
C.R. Bishop
