Manaole's place, toward the mountain
a plain land lot and my property, Ewa

6. And the boundaries of the pasture are:
Kanakahilau's place, toward the mountain
Manaole's place and Kapule's place, Ewa
Hinaa's place, toward the sea
Kapule's lot and Manaole's lot, Waianae.
There is no fence or house there.

7. And these are the boundaries of parcel seven; however, there is only one patch:
Kawahaea's lot, toward the mountain
Kahawai, Ewa
Opiopio's land, toward the sea and
Kanakahilau, Waianae.
There is no house.

Oni's parents had received this property during the time of Kamehameha I. Although Kanakahilau is the konohiki, Oni is living there and no one objects."

Aoao, sworn and said, "I have seen this property exactly as Kaaiawaawa (has seen)."
