The taro land and the house lot are from J. Piikoi and the salt patches were received at the time Manuia was living at the fort. Piikoi is the present konohiki. Laanui had protested about the patches while Piikoi had not raised any objections for the same.

Kauhi had given the salt land during Kinau's time and no one had objected.

Postponed until other witnesses are summoned.
