.... Kelawea," Lahaina. It formerly belonged to Kaluakau, who went abroad and died in the time of Kaahumanu. Kauhi, his brother-in-law, has held this lot ever since. Keaweluaole, the late Konohiki, attempted some years ago to take away this lot from Kauhi because he owed the Konohiki $10 for Poalima labor. This is the only difficulty about claimant's title that I have ever heard of. He paid the $10 to Keaweluaole, in 1848, perhaps.
