Greetings to you all, the Land Commissioners: I have a claim for land in the Ahupua`a of Halawa on the Island of Molokai.
It is an `ili named Kaakaualani; bounded on the makai side by Manuwa, for Makole, on the mauka side is the `ili of Hunapa, for Kulou, above is a pali, below is a valley.
There are three lo`i po`alima for Timoteo within Kaakaualani; this is taro land and also kula.
My occupancy of this land has been from the time of Paia I. I received it from Kamuku. Paia I and II are dead and Timoteo is the present konohiki. I have cultivated from that time until the present. Formerly I went to the po`alima labor days but am excused at this time because of having children and old age. The length is 143 fathoms and the width is 43 fathoms.
KALIK ....

Kekahuna, sworn, confirms in full the testimony made by the former witness.
It appears by the evidence adduced, that Kamoku has no claim to the disputed kalo patches.
