No. 8155, Hii vs. M. Kekuanaoa, 7 July 1852

There are six poalima patches in Hii's claim which M. Kekuanaoa is requesting to be removed.

Hii: There is no Friday poalima in this land. It has been put out of the koele.

Keliihuluhulu: There are six koeles just as the request has claimed and Kahiko and L. Kuokoa have said this also.

Land officer: Are there poalima patches in your claim:

Hii: I suppose so. These people here are saying so; however, I have never seen it as a poalima since I have lived off the land to this day.

Decision: The konohiki has won the six poalima patches and the rest of the remaining places are for Hii.
