.... ceived from both Wahinepio and Kalaimoku. He was given this because he had no place to live in this upland because he was a sea captain. He lived there quietly and died peacefully. Before 1839, Kekahupuu had asked Pupuka for a place to live until the time he would return to Oahu with the chiefs. He was permitted to build a house and only the house was given to him, but Kekahupuu did not want it. He did not hear that this place has been bequested to Pakohana.

The wife of Pupuka and the wife of Ehu are friends and Kekahupuu is Ehu's nephew(?).

Kekahupuu began to settle there under Pupuka at the time of Kaliaka's arrival in 1840 at Puunoa.
