BRIEF SKETCH OF KAMEHAMEHA I.

HIS WARS AND CELEBRITIES OF HIS TIME.

Kamehameha was a most famous king for bravery and for his great strength; he was the foremost of the great chiefs of Hawaii, from the earliest days, therefore his record [638] must be briefly looked over from the time of his lowliness until he was prosperous. Keoua (First), the father of Kamehameha, was the younger brother of Kalaiopuu. [639] Another name of Keoua was Kalaninuikupuapaikalaninui. The place where Kamehameha was raised from his childhood up, was at Halawa, in Kohala. Here he became a planter. He planted the trees which are still growing to this day, which are the noni, and other kinds. He also built the temple (heiau) of Hapuu, in Halawa. Thus were spent his days when he was poor and destitute of land. Of Kamehameha’s person, he had a large body, which looked to be solidly built, and was very broad on the shoulders. He was full formed without defects, and there was an abundance of muscles on his neck.

The great king of Hawaii at that time was Kalaiopuu, and Kiwalao was born to him. Before his death at Waioahukini, in Kau, Kalaiopuu left the kingdom to his own son, Kiwalao.

OF KALAIOPUU’S WORDS TO KIWALAO AND KAMEHAMEHA.

Before the death of Kalaiopuu he gave an injunction to the boys, Kiwalao and Kamehameha, [640] and to all the chiefs, thus: “Boys, listen, both of you. The heir to the kingdom of Hawaii nei, comprising the three divisions of land, Kau, Kona and Kohala, shall be the chief Kiwalao. He is the heir to the lands. As regarding you, Kamehameha, there is no land or property for you; but your land and your endowment shall be the god Kaili. If, during life, your lord [641] should molest you, take possession of the kingdom; but if the molestation be on your part, you will be deprived of the god.” These words of Kalaiopuu were fulfilled in the days of their youth, and his injunction was realized.

After the death of Kalaiopuu, Kamehameha came away with his inheritance, the god Kaili. He took care and preserved it, building for it stone enclosures at Kona and Kohala. The meaning of stone enclosures is temples (heiau).

Kamehameha built temples at Hikiau in Kaawaloa; at Keeku, in Kahaluu; at Keikipuipui, in Kailua, all in Kona; and at Mailekini, in Kawaihae; Puukohola, in Kawaihae; Hapuu, in Halawa; Kupalaha, in Makapala; and Mookini, in Puuepa, all in Kohala. In these temples (heiau’s) Kamehameha was wont to worship his god, Kaili, thus maintaining his endowment given to him by his uncle, Kalaiopuu.

OF MOKUOHAI. [642]—FIRST BATTLE.

This was the battle that made Kamehameha king of Kona, Kohala and Hamakua. There remained the three divisions, Kau, Puna and Hilo, in Hawaii. The cause of this war was the desire of the chiefs of Hilo to possess Kona, which has a calm and pleasant climate.

When Kalaiopuu died at Waioahukini in Kau, the chiefs of Hilo and Kau [643] brought his dead body to Kona, in canoes. That was not, however, the real object of their coming, but they came to Kona, the land that they had been longing for, to divide it up, and also to make war. On the way from Kau to Kona, they and the corpse of Kalaiopuu were caught in the rains on the ocean; therefore, they turned in and landed at Honaunau, in South Kona, without reaching Kailua, in North Kona, where they had intended to land. When they landed at Honaunau, Keeaumoku [644] came to pay his respects to the remains of Kalaiopuu. On this occasion Keeaumoku well knew by the looks of the chiefs and the men that there was war brewing.

Soon after their landing at Honaunau with the corpse of Kalaiopuu, the chiefs and Kiwalao started to divide up Hawaii among themselves, and when Keeaumoku became cognizant of their warlike designs, he came to Kamehameha, who was at Halawa, in Kohala, to go and fight. When Keeaumoku left Kona, he arrived at Kekaha, where he met Kamehameha, who had already been brought by Kekuhaupio [645] from Kohala. At this meeting they consulted among themselves their plan of war, and their own proper proceedings; and their plans being settled upon they set sail, arriving at Kaawaloa and Keei.

When Kamehameha arrived there Kiwalao came to greet him with lying, deceitful words, thus: “Listen; we are going to lose our lives. Here is our uncle (Keawemauhili) insisting on war. It seems we two are the only ones to die. Oh! Pity us.” After the meeting between Kiwalao and Kamehameha, the former returned to Honaunau, [646] dividing up the lands with the chiefs, thereby depriving Keoua of a share in the lands. This so enraged Keoua that he went with his followers to Keomo and cut down the coconut trees, killing a man. [647] That man was Kamehameha’s. This was the commencement of the battle which continued for three days. In this battle there were four chiefs in defense of Kamehameha; they were Keeaumoku, Keaweaheulu, Kameeiamoku and Kekuhaupio. [648]

In the days of this battle Keeaumoku was the chief on Kamehameha’s side who contended with Kiwalao’s warriors. In the fray he got entangled with a long spear which threw him down. Kiwalao’s men then stabbed him on the back, with wooden daggers. When Keeaumoku fell a man pierced him with a long spear, whereby he became very weak and near unto death, while the man said with a taunting brag: “My spear has struck a yellow-backed crab.”

Then Kiwalao called to the warrior who was piercing Keeaumoku with the long spear: “Save the ivory necklace,” by which Keeaumoku understood that his own death was sealed. And while he was thus lying prostrate on the ground, Kamanawa was leading the fighting against Kiwalao’s warriors. Mahoe also stood up with his sling, sending a stone which struck Kiwalao, knocking him down. When Keeaumoku saw Kiwalao fall, he crawled over with a great effort, and when he found him he throttled him with the leiomanu, [649] which he held in his hand; and thus Kiwalao died.

On the death of Kiwalao, Kamehameha continued the fighting, and became victorious over the opposing chiefs. Keoua fled by sea to Kau, and reigned there. Keawemauhili fled over the mountains and became ruler over Hilo and Puna, while Kamehameha became ruler over Kona, Kohala and Hamakua. Therefore there were three different rulers on Hawaii at that time.

OF KAUAAWA.—SECOND BATTLE.

This was Kamehameha’s second battle against his enemies, who were Keoua and Keawemauhili. This battle took place on the mountains in Kau, [650] which are called Kauaawa, [651] on account of the rains in the mountains. In this battle, Kamehameha’s supporters, who were also his chief advisors in the work necessary for the battle, were Keeaumoku, Keaweaheulu, Kameeiamoku and Kamanawa. In this battle Keoua and Keawemauhili were not defeated by Kamehameha, so he retired to Laupahoehoe. After spending some time there, he again embarked in a canoe to fight for the conquest of Hilo and Puna.

When he arrived at Keaau, in Puna, he made a landing at Papai, where fishermen gathered for their daily vocation.

OF KAMEHAMEHA’S GREAT STRENGTH IN FIGHTING.

On landing at this place, where a number of fishermen dwelt, he chased after them intending to kill them, and while thus pursuing the fishermen, he fell in a crevice in the rocks where his foot caught and held him fast. Therefore he tried with all his might to extricate himself.

When he fell in the crevice, he was struck on the forehead with a paddle by the fishermen, and on account of this fact the title of that famous law, the “mamalahoa,” [652] was derived, which prevailed until the days of Kamehameha III, the interpretation of which being that old men and old women might lie down in the road without being ruthlessly killed, [653] or robbed of their belongings.

By a tremendous effort Kamehameha extricated his foot and chased after the men. There was a large clump of ohia trees in his way which could not be encircled by less than three men. This obstructed Kamehameha from chasing after the men, but he reached around one side of the clump of ohias till he caught one of the men, whose body he bent over towards the clump of ohias, and thus killed him. When the other men saw this they were fearfully alarmed and ran away.

On another occasion, Kamehameha displayed his great strength when he and his own personal attendant, Hema, alone went into a fight with Keoua at Koapapaa, in Kekualele, and at Kealakaha, in Hamakua. There was a deep ravine, and very narrow at the bottom. Kamehameha and Hema went down till they reached this limited space, when they met Keoua’s warriors. Forty of them with their spears and javelins jumped on Kamehameha, but they were as nothing to him. He stretched out his hands, caught the warriors, and broke them in two, one after another, all of the time moving onward. Thus Kamehameha slaughtered the soldiers until there remained only ten, when he became exhausted. He then told his servant, “Say, help me out.” Hema [654] immediately jumped into the fray, killing the remaining ten; and on that day he became a chief of Kamehameha, being released from his position of attendant.

OF THE THIRD WAR, KEPANIWAI.

This is the third of Kamehameha’s battles during his reign, and was fought out at Maui, in the Valley of Iao, at Wailuku. [655] It was one of the most renowned of Kamehameha’s battles, on account of the great number of canoes, of the people, and of the damming of the waters of Iao. This trip of the canoes from Hawaii was called the Great Fleet, which was the first trip of Kamehameha’s large peleleu (canoes) to Maui. It is said that the canoes which came in this single trip were so numerous that they covered the whole landing place from Keoneoio to Olowalu without a space intervening.

In the battle at Iao, Kalaikupule [656] was defeated by Kamehameha, the former fleeing in a canoe and going to Oahu. In this battle the slaughter of the people of Maui was so great that the stream and valley of Iao was dammed that the water receded upward and did not flow downward as it does now. On account of the great number of people slain and the great number of deaths of people rolling down the precipice, that battle was known under three famous appellations. They are: Kepaniwai, [657] Kauwaupali, [658] and Iao. In this war Maui became a possession of Kamehameha to this day of writing, and no one has ever denounced the powerful arm of Kamehameha to this day.

THE FOURTH BATTLE, AT KOAPAPAA.

This battle was a secret invasion by Keoua. When Kamehameha had gone to Maui and then to Molokai, at Kaunakahakai, a messenger arrived from Hawaii, apprising him of Keoua’s cruelty to his (Kamehameha’s) subjects, by robbing them of their property, by the wantonly killing of men, women and children, the cutting of taro from the fields with overbearing arrogance, and all other malicious acts. Women who were with child were trampled under foot, pierced with small bambus and with sticks and stones.

When Kamehameha heard of these acts of Keoua, his love for the people of his three possessions, Kona, Kohala and Hamakua, was manifested, as they were cruelly slaughtered by Keoua. Kamehameha then abandoned his idea of going to Oahu.

He went back to Hawaii and fought Keoua in Hamakua, where Keoua was defeated [659] and escaped to Kau, and afterwards died at Kawaihae, in Kohala. That battle was called Koapapaa. [660] Here is the explanation of the name: the warriors of Keoua were reduced by death, and were as nothing before Kamehameha and his warriors, and were left on the ground as a lot of logs piled up in an umu (underground oven), and very much scorched by the heat of the fire.

The death of Keoua by which Kau became a possession of Kamehameha, happened in this way: When the temple (heiau) at Puukohola, [661] in Kawaihae was built, Keoua was sent for in Kau, [662] with deceitful words thus: “O Keoua, your cousin, Kamehameha, has requested that you come and make friends, and live together in harmony, and to cast aside all strife.” On these cunning and deceitful words, Keoua came with his double canoes and landed at Kawaihae. [663] Before his arrival the umu had been prepared and was red hot. Keoua was then roasted. [664] And thus Keoua was killed by Kamehameha, who came into possession of Kau, making four divisions of land in Hawaii, in his possession, namely, Kau, Kona, Kohala and Hamakua.

THE FIFTH BATTLE, CALLED KE-PU-WAHA-ULAULA. [665]

This was Kamehameha’s fifth battle which he fought against the rebel chiefs [666] Kahekili and Kaeo. The latter came from Kauai to Oahu and met Kahekili, both going to Hawaii, and at Kohala fought Kamehameha. They were defeated. In this vanquishment, the people of Kauai, and of Oahu and of Maui were slaughtered by Kamehameha and his warriors, so that the corpses of the people floated on the sea outside of Kohala, and looked red; hence the appellation Kepuwahaulaula. The head and the skin of the corpses were as red as the gun.

THE SIXTH BATTLE, CALLED KAIEIEWAHO. [667]

When Kamehameha heard that Kahekili had died in Oahu, and that the government of Oahu was under the control of Kalaikupule, his son, he set sail and arrived at Oahu, where he fought Kalaikupule at the famous pali of Nuuanu. Kalaikupule was defeated by Kamehameha. In this battle the people of Oahu were massacred at the cliffs of Nuuanu. The people stepped upon each other, and the people that day were in heaps at the bottom of the cliffs of Nuuanu. And by this battle the whole group of islands, including Maui, Molokai, Lanai, Kahoolawe and Kauai, [668] was conquered by Kamehameha.

PIHANA.

Pihana was a very celebrated warrior chief of Oahu, in the days of Kalaikupule, the great chief of Oahu. He (Pihana) was noted for his bravery and skill; the use of the spear, the lance, the javelin, were as a bath to him; his joys and pleasures; he could fight other people and many of them with the help of but a few soldiers.

THE SIXTH BATTLE. [669]

This was the battle between Kamehameha and Kalaikupule at Nuuanu. Kalaimoku was Kamehameha’s chief warrior, from Hawaii, and Pihana was Kalaikupule’s chief warrior.

When Kamehameha with his many soldiers came over from Hawaii in his canoes, the first of the canoe fleet in charge of Kalaimoku, Kamehameha’s chief warrior, landed at Kapua. [670] Just as Kalaimoku was about to disembark, Pihana, with his nine soldiers, came and stood at the landing place of Kapua. The fight then commenced. The men from Hawaii under Kalaimoku, at that time, were eight times forty in number. [671] All of them threw their spears and lances at Pihana and his nine soldiers, but none were hit nor were any killed. After they had fought for some time, they moved to Waikiki where the fighting was renewed. Here the Hawaii men tried to mob Pihana, but were unsuccessful. The fighting kept moving thence to Kulaokahua, then to Puowaina, [672] behind which a man of the Oahu warriors was secretly shot by a foreigner’s gun. From that place they moved on to Pauoa, and passing this place came to Kaheiki, a place adjacent to Maemae. [673] Here the Hawaii forces came to a stand.

Kalaikupule and his warriors were encamped above at Waolani [674], and it was only his chief warrior, Pihana, that was battling with Kalaimoku. Kalaimoku and the Hawaii soldiers were distinguished by being surrounded by a fine-meshed net, which was the outside enclosure for the men; if a man was on the outside, then he was an Oahuan; if within the net enclosure, he was a Hawaii man. On account of this action, Pihana and his nine men stood up and fought Kalaimoku, in which engagement Pihana and his men were not defeated.

Therefore Kalaimoku asked Pihana to cease his resisting and to cede Oahu to Kamehameha. Pihana replied: “I will not give you the land until I have bathed [675] myself in Hawaii’s medicine (weapons). In three days I shall leave the land in your hands.” Then Pihana stood alone before the soldiers from Hawaii. They cast their spears and lances and javelins, and threw stones at him, but Pihana simply dodged them.

Thus he stood until tired when he laid down, face downward, and then on his back. He then stooped and exhibited his posterior in vulgar defiance, and in all that time the men from Hawaii were casting their spears and javelins at him without hitting him. The men from Hawaii, looking at him found no one among many equal to him in agility and daring.

After two days had passed Pihana joined his forces, which was the time of the great battle. He tore the surrounding net and stood at the opening. No spear nor lance was hurled, the dread of Pihana being so great. On the third day Pihana again came forward to fight with the warriors from Hawaii. He went up to Kalaimoku and ceded the land to him. Therefore Kalaikupule was vanquished.

SEVENTH BATTLE BY KAMEHAMEHA.

After Kamehameha had fought Kalaikupule on Oahu, Namakaeha, a chief who was residing at Hilo, raised a rebellion there, and made preparations to war upon Kamehameha. At that time Kamehameha was on Oahu, and he immediately returned to Hawaii [676], to fight Namakaeha. In the battle which ensued Namakaeha was slain by Kamehameha at Kaipalaoa, in Hilo. This was the last battle by Kamehameha when he assumed the administration of his whole kingdom from Hawaii to Niihau, in which he reigned peacefully to the day of his death. On the consolidation of these Islands from Hawaii to Niihau under one great ruler, Kamehameha, with all the chiefs under him, he established his policy and wisdom over all his kingdom with uprightness.

THE ADMINISTRATION OF KAMEHAMEHA.

Kamehameha was a very wise king, and was honest, kind, charitable and humane. This is how he arranged the work of his kingdom: Kamehameha was the great ruler over all. There were four chief executives under him: these were Keeaumoku, Keaweaheulu, Kameeiamoku and Kamanawa. [677] There were also advisors and counselors in the affairs of the kingdom. There were four of them: Kai, Kapalaoa, Kaaloa and Kauakahiakaola. With these people Kamehameha carried out all of his works, and through them important laws were made, which carried great influence upon the people, such as the Mamalahoa [678] and the Maumae, [679] “that the old and the infirm might lie down in the road and not be molested.”

Here are also the names of certain men whom Kamehameha brought together to be with him; men who were skillful in all things, and who were considerate and intelligent. Here are their names and their offices:

Kalaimoku, a favorite, a chief warrior; Hewahewa, a priest; Kaumiumi, a fortune-teller; Kapoukahi, a statesman; Kaaloakauila, an advocate; Kekakau, a surf rider; Kekuhaupio, a celebrated warrior; Kepaalani, a canoeist; Waipa, a shipwright; Palake, a canoe builder; Kapueuhi, a dancer; Kamakau, a chanter; Keaweaheulu, a lua-apana (jester); Hoomakaukau, a steward; Wahahee, a masseur; Kalaimamahu, the law-giver or judge; Kamaalo, god impersonator; Kanihonui, observer of the kapu restrictions; Kaikioewa, an extortioner (thief). The word lua-apana means doing nothing, spending time in laziness. The word kikoola means robbing others of their property, and perjuring.

He took care of the people as though they were children, and his wives he placed as guardians. He, with his chiefs and the men of his court, cultivated the land and the result of which was that most noted field of Kuahewa, in upper Kailua, North Kona, Hawaii. It was most noted for its great size and length. It comprised eight divisions of land, about seven miles.

The most valuable commodity during Kamehameha’s reign was the iliahi, [680] a very fragrant wood and very valuable, which flourished in the mountains, and in places thickly covered with vegetation. The feathers of the birds, of the oo and other birds, were made into feather cloaks for the chiefs and the warriors.

The extent of Kamehameha’s reign was seven [681] years, and he died at the commencement of the eighth, in the year of the Lord, 1819. [682] He died at Kailua, in Kona, Hawaii, and it was there that Liholiho [683] was set apart as heir to his (Kamehameha’s) kingdom.

OF THE CHIEF KEKUAOKALANI, AND HIS INSURGENCY.

The cause for this insurgency of Kekuaokalani [684] was on account of the raising of the restrictions, and Liholiho allowing the same to be done; this angered Kekuaokalani, who threatened to make war and destroy the reformers. Here is the meaning of Aikapu: [685] The husband ate by himself, had a separate house, a separate oven, and so forth; so did the wife. They were separated in their social life. Ainoa [686] means: The husband and his wife eat together, dwelt in the same house, and so forth.

When Kamehameha died the kingdom fell to Liholiho. Kekuaokalani did not want Liholiho to remove the restrictions of the kingdom; he was in favor of aikapu, therefore he opposed Liholiho, but Kaahumanu [687] and the chiefs refused to continue the restrictions. The cause of this reformation was the death of Kamehameha. All the people went into mourning, and it was during that time that the husband and wife ate together, eating all foods that were restricted, and thus ainoa spread down to the battle at Kuamoo with Kekuaokalani.

When Kekuaokalani heard that Liholiho and all the chiefs had acceded to the ainoa, he went and resided at Kaawaloa with his wife, Manono. He then prepared to rebel and to fight against the ainoa people. Then two chiefs, Naihe and Hoapili, set sail from Kailua to Kaawaloa. They said to Kekuaokalani: “We have come to bring you back to your nephew and reside at Kailua, and it shall be as you desire whether the restrictions be continued or raised. But that shall be as you desire.” Kekuaokalani then said: “You two tarry here until Manono hears about it. Tomorrow I will tell you.”

They rested there, and in the morning Kekuaokalani came to the presence of Hoapili and Naihe. They then asked, “Are we going?” Kekuaokalani said “Yes,” but his assent was not real. He was bent on war. Wherefore Naihe and Hoapili said: “The navel is cut then, companion.”

After this Naihe and Hoapili returned and arrived at Kailua, and told Kalaimoku to prepare for war. Nine war canoes were made ready. Kalaimoku marched overland, and when he came to Lekeleke, the battle commenced with Kekuaokalani’s scouts. In this battle Kalaimoku was defeated and a number of his men were killed. They again met at Kuamoo, where they fought from morning till evening when Kekuaokalani was killed. He was hit in the leg by a bullet, the effects of which rendering him very weak. His wife Manono remained safe.

Manono was a very beautiful woman and her face very fair to look upon. She called to Kalaimoku and the men thus: “O spare us two! There is no safety before the mouth of a gun.” Kalaimoku then said: “You shall not live, because the chief has been killed.” Therefore she was shot and died soon after.

After the death of Kekuaokalani and his wife Manono at Kuamoo, Kalaimoku returned with the warriors to Kailua. They held a consultation and decided to make war upon that other insurgent, Kainapau, a commoner, residing at Waipio, in Hamakua. Kalaimoku and his men then set sail and arrived at Kawaihae. From here they marched up to Waimea, arriving at a place called Pahupahua, near Mahiki, where the fighting occurred. In the melee the rebels were annihilated and Kainapau overthrown. He fled to the uttermost backwoods of Waipio, hiding there, and while so doing, was found by the searchers. Kainapau was killed on the spot, and his intestines strung out to dry in the sun. That is the dreadful end of the evil-minded, the rebellious and the wrong-doer, a horrible death.

OF HEMA.

Hema was one of the most famous warriors in the days of Kamehameha, and a man who was not afraid of the bravery and strength of others. Hema was not trained to be a warrior, or in the art of war. He was not accustomed to the waging of wars, and was never a warrior. He was a steward of Kamehameha, and his duties were to take and keep in charge rations for the king every day. While going abroad in war times he was the bearer of food, and when a battle was in progress and Kamehameha became hungry, then Hema would bring him provisions.

In all these works pertaining to a steward Hema was an expert, and was satisfactory to Kamehameha, but he had not received a chiefly term, nor fame, nor was he a favorite, but on the day that he chose to be a warrior and destroyed the enemies of Kamehameha, that day he became a chief and a favorite of Kamehameha, and abandoned his stewardship.

When Kamehameha was fighting against Keoua at Koapapaa, in Hamakua, at a place called Kealakaha, near to Kaula, and in a deep valley called Kekualele, there a fight occurred between the strongest warriors of Keoua against Kamehameha. At that particular place the standing room was only a fathom in width, and it was there Kamehameha fought against forty [688] or more of Keoua’s warriors.

After considerable fighting Kamehameha was very much out of breath, and the men of Keoua were being reinforced. Just then Kamehameha expectantly turned to the rear; but there were no chiefs, nor warriors behind him, only Hema the steward.

While Kamehameha was talking to Hema, the enemies were preparing to take Kamehameha’s life, but Hema fearlessly leapt forward and slew the warriors of Keoua. By this work of Hema in leaping forward to repulse the enemies, Kamehameha was victorious that day, and his life was saved, and Keoua defeated. Hence the name Koapapaa until this day, which means that the warriors became a storehouse of death and the lance and the spear the pathway, here and there. The warriors were left there in that valley, a pile of earth.

When Kamehameha witnessed the matchless bravery of Hema, he said: “Today you become a chief as I am, and today you refrain from carrying and shouldering baggage, and you shall be a courtier in my presence, and in the presence of the chiefs and the people also. He who disobeys your word shall die. If the delinquent be a chief he shall lose his lands.” [689] Therefore Hema was exalted until his death, and was very famous in the days of Kamehameha.

On reflection, therefore, perhaps there never was a man on the continents, or on the Isles of the Sea, who had never studied the requirements of a warrior, and who did go to war as Hema was, the unlearned.

OF NALU.

Nalu was a very celebrated warrior during Kamehameha’s reign, and was an accomplished soldier. It is said that in his fighting days he could stand and fight fearlessly against an overwhelming number of his enemies and beat them, because he gloried [690] in the use of the lance, the spear, the javelin, the cudgel, the stone ax and the encircling pikoi rope. Nalu was therefore greatly feared in his warrior days and fighting in battles. No land division chief would dare and fight him; no warrior, no land, or island [691] would dare and fight Nalu, his great strength being the source of fear among all. Kamehameha was also apprehensive of Nalu on account of the latter’s accomplishments in bravery and skill.

MOOLELO POKOLE NO KAMEHAMEHA I.

He ’lii kaulana loa o Kamehameha I no ke koa a me ka ikaika loa, a oia ka oi o na ’lii nui o Hawaii nei mai kahiko loa mai, nolaila, he pono e nana pokole i kona moolelo o ka noho ilihune ana, a me ka noho waiwai ana. O Keoua mua ka makuakane o Kamehameha, o Kalaiopuu kaikaina no o Keoua (o kekahi inoa o Keoua, o Kalaninuikupuapaikalaninui). O kahi i hanai ia ai o Kamehameha, o Halawa, i Kohala, mai kona wa uuku a nui, alaila, mahiai o Kamehameha. Nana na laau e ulu la ma Halawa a hiki i keia la, oia ka noni, a me na mea e ae, a me kela heiau o Hapuu, makai o Halawa. Pela kona noho ana i kona wa ilihume, aina ole.

Mamua ae o ka make ana o Kalaiopuu, waiho aku ia i kana olelo kauoha i na keiki, ia Kiwalao a me Kamehameha, a me na ’lii a pau loa: “E na keiki, e hoolohe mai olua, o ka hooilina o ke aupuni o Hawaii nei, oia na moku ekolu, o Kau, o Kona, o Kohala, o Kiwalao ke ’lii, oia ka hooilina o na aina. O oe hoi e Kamehameha, aole ou aina, aole ou hooilina waiwai, aka, o kou aina a me kou hooilina, o ke ’kua o Kaili.

Ma keia mau heiau o Kamehameha i hoomana ai i kona akua o Kaili, a pela no hoi oia i malama ai i kona hooilina, mai ko laua makuakane mai o Kalaiopuu.

Oia ke kaua i ku ai o Kamehameha i ka moku o Kona, o Kohala, o Hamakua, koe ekolu moku o Hawaii, o Kau, o Puna, o Hilo. O ke kumu o keia kaua ana o ka makemake o ua ’lii o Hilo ia Kona i ka pohu, a me ka maikai, nolaila ke kaua.

A make o Kalaiopuu ma Waioahukini ma Kau, lawe maila na ’lii o Hilo a me Kau i ke kino kupapau o Kalaiopuu, maluna o na waa i Kona nei. Aka, aole ia o ko lakou manao maoli, aka, i hiki lakou i Kona, ka aina a lakou i makemake nui ai, alaila okioki, a kaua no hoi. Ma keia holo ana mai Kau mai a Kona, ua loaa lakou i ka ua ma ka moana me ke kino kupapau o Kalaiopuu, nolaila, pae lakou i Honaunau, ma Kona hema, aole i hiki i Kailua ma Kona akau nei, kahi a lakou i manao ai e pae. A pae lakou ma Honaunau, hele maila o Keeaumoku e ike i ke kupapau o Kalaiopuu. Ma keia ike ana o Keeaumoku, ua maopopo ia ia he kaua ke ano o na ’lii a me na kanaka.

Ma keia pae ana o na ’lii me ke kino kupapau o Kalaiopuu ma Honaunau, ia wa, okioki ihola na ’lii a me Kiwalao i ka aina o Hawaii, no lakou a pau. A ma ko Keeaumoku ike ana i ko lakou ano kaua, kii maila ia ia Kamehameha ma Halawa i Kohala, e hele e kaua. Ia Keeaumoku i holo ai mai Kona aku a Kekaha, halawai maila o Kamehameha meia, no ka mea, ua kii mua aku o Kekuhaupio ia Kamehameha ma Kohala. Ma keia halawai ana o lakou, kuka ihola lakou i ke ano o ke kaua, a me ka hana e pono ai, a akaka ihola, holo aku la lakou a hiki ma Kaawaloa, a ma Keei.

A hiki o Kamehameha malaila, hele maila o Kiwalao e aloha ia Kamehameha me na olelo pahele hoopunipuni, penei: “Auhea oe, e make ana kaua, eia no ka makuakane o kaua ke pue mai nei e kaua (oia o Keawemauhili), elua wale no paha auanei kaua e make, aloha wale kaua.” A pau ka ike ana o Kiwalao me Kamehameha hoi akula o Kiwalao a Honaunau, okioki i na aina me na ’lii, a nele o Keoua i ka aina ole, huhu ihola ia. Hele aku la o Keoua me kona mau kanaka a hiki ma Keomo, kua ihola i ka niu, pepehi i ke kanaka, make ihola ko Kamehameha kanaka. Alaila, hoomaka ke kaua, ekolu la i kaua ai. Ma keia kaua ana, eha alii mahope o Kamehameha, Keeaumoku, Keaweheulu, Kameeiamoku, Kekuhaupio.

Iloko o na la i kaua ai, o Keeaumoku ke ’lii ma ko Kamehameha aoao i kaua aku, me ko Kiwalao poe kaua. Ma keia hoouka ana o Keeaumoku, ua hihia oia i ka pololu, a hina ihola ilalo, o o ihola na koa o Kiwalao i ka pahoa ia Keeaumoku ma kona kua. I keia hina ana, hou ihola kekahi koa ia Keeaumoku i ka pololu, a ua nawaliwali oia, aneane e make, me ka hua olelo kaena penei: “Ku aku la kau laau i ka aama kua lenalena.”

Alaila, pane mai o Kiwalao i ke koa nana e hou nei o Keeaumoku i ka pololu: “E malama i ka niho palaoa.” Alaila, maopopo ia Keeaumoku e make ana ia i loko o ka Kiwalao olelo ana.

A ike o Keeaumoku ua hina o Kiwalao ilalo, hooikaika aela ia, a loaa o Kiwalao, uumi ihola ia me ka leiomanu ma kona lima, a make ihola o Kiwalao.

A make o Kiwalao, hoouka ihola o Kamehameha me na ’lii, a lanakila aela o Kamehameha mahuka aku la o Keoua ma ke kai a hiki i Kau noho alii.

O na kokua o Kamehameha ma keia kaua ana, a o kona mau kuhina noia ma ka noonoo ana i na mea e pono ai ka hana ana, o Keeaumoku, o Keaweheulu, o Kameeiamoku, o Kamanawa.

Ma keia kaua ana, aole i hee o Keoua me Keawemauhili ia Kamehameha, nolaila, hoi aela ia a noho ma Laupahoehoe. Mahope o keia noho ana o Kamehameha i Laupahoehoe, hele aku la ia maluna o ka waa, e kaua hou ai i Hilo a me Puna.

Ma keia pae ana o Kamehameha, he mau lawaia e noho ana ma laila, alualu aku la o Kamehameha e pepehi i na lawaia. Ma keia alualu ana, ua haule o Kamehameha i loko o ka mawae a paa loa kona wawae, nolaila, oni aela ia me kona ikaika loa.

A no loko o keia pa ana o ka lae o Kamehameha i ka hoe, kela kanawai kaulana loa i kauia a hiki i na la o Kamehameha III oia ka Mamalahoa. Eia ke ano: “E hele ka elemakule a me ka luahine a moe i ke ala,” aole e pepehi wale ia, aole hao wale ia ko lakou waiwai.
