To the Land Commissioners: I, Pukila, have an 'ili, Waipukua, in the Ahupua'a of Kumueli, Molokai. I have combined the two lengths 54 + 52 = 106 fathoms; the widths combined are 7.3 + 3.3 /sic/ = 11 fathoms. It is bounded mauka by a lo'i po'alima, to the eastward by Naahuelua's land, makai by a pond, downwind by Kawailoa.
I received it from Awili, who was dispossessed for Kamai, who was dispossessed for Pupuka, who died and it was held by Maikai, who in no time was finished.
At present it is Napunako. It has been perhaps 15 years, in other words /from the time of/ the Fort.
Furthermore, I have a claim for a lot; however it is in someone else's mo'o. Those are my claims which are stated to you all.
