.... Keaniani was konohiki in Kapalama. Land to Kuku from Moo, Moo's land from Keaniani before the uprising of Kaomi and long before the death of Kinau in 1839. Kalimaiki had lived there peacefully and died on 8 August 1850, probably. These places were bequested to his wife, Kahuhu and children Keoni, Kaneikele, Kahaole and Kualii and they have lived there continuously to this time, no disputes.

Kawaihoa, sworn, I have seen these places of Kalimaiki in Kapalama just as Mose Hoaliku has related here, it is true.
