Honorable Members of the Privy Council, Greetings: I hereby describe my claim for taro land in the `ili of Keauhou, situated in Kalihi uka, Oahu, on that bank of Kalihi stream. Pao is the konohiki. Its boundaries are: on the north, a land of Hoopio, on the east, a land for Kaloahalau, on the south, a land of Hoanui, on the west, a land for Pao.

I had given him all of his taro lands and he had the house lot a very long time ago. This was during the lifetime of Liholiho and he (Kahuiki) lived on that land in peace. I gave this land in 1846 which I had received from Kaunuohua.
