A. Paki, sworn, says this lot belonged anciently to the King's mother, after whose death it fell to Nahienaena, and when she died it fell to the King.

The King and Kekauonohi and others met at my house and the King asked Kekauonohi to let him have that lot as a site for a Hotel and she said if the King wants the place he can have it of course.
