No. 50, Kalaiheana, Honolulu, April 26, 1846
To the Land Commissioners: Kalaiheana has given me the work of claiming his lot. Therefore I give you the basis of his claim. It was founded by Kamehameha I. Here is the main reason: Papa was the poo /head, oldest of the generation/, Kalaiheana was below their kaikuahine, Wanaoa, below her were her kaikunane. They were the three elders. There was one keiki, John Ii, - This is the right. The name of this place is Kaaoaopa, the description being:
Northeast 166 yards
Southeast 101 yards
East66 yards
West 84 yards. This is the yardage of this place.
I will be the one to talk with you.
With thanks,
By P. AUWAA KALAIHEANA

.... ony:
Kalaiheana has no land; when was it given away?
Wahinealii: During Kamehameha I time. At the time they had Liholiho's foster child they took him to this place. Papa had a part of this land; Leleahana, who is my father, also had a parcel. This place had not been enclosed and our property only was enclosed by a fence, but at this time Namauu has put up a fence.
How did Namauu get a claim here?
Perhaps through Kamana, the wife of Papa.
It was agreed that the claim to this property will be settled after a surveyor has been found to survey (the land).

No. 50, Kalaiheana, March 21, 1847
The officers who quiet land titles met and Ii was sworn by the Bible and testified:
Previously the property which Kalaiheana is claiming had been for Kalaiheana and me, but when Kamehameha returned to Hawaii Kalaiheana ceased living there, while at the chapel here, there were so many other people placed to live there, thus since that time, the land had been detached from Kalaiheana.
