I have never seen the wife of Kaanaana occupy it, nor Kaanaana, from the time this place became Keohokalole's until today. Hoapili gave this place to Keohokalole in 1836, that was when we brought back the body of Nahienaena, and I lived in this lot for eight years from 1836, then I married and my occupancy in this lot ended. In my constant sailings to Maui in these years, it is Keohokalole's retainers who occupy it, not Kaanaana ma, not a house, nor any of their retainers are there. That is my certain knowledge of this place. The truth of the understood right to this place is that it is for Keohokalole; Kaanaana has no right there.
