            Ua hoole paakiki mai nae o Uilama Waila i ke noi a Haliaka, no ka mea ua loaa aku ka ike iaia, no kela manawa hookahi wale no a Haliaka o ka hoea ana maloko o ka rumi paahao o kona mama, ua hoi liilii mai na hoomanao ana iloko on a, no kana mau mea i hoomaopopo ai, i ka wa ikaika o kona ola kino; a in a he mau manawa hou aku kekahi a ke kaikamahine e noho pu ai me kona makuahine,,e hoi pono mai ka noonoo maikai iloko o Mrs. Waila, no ka mea, ua lohe maopopo loa ua kana nei i ke kama@@, mai o kana wahine, i na mea i palaka loa i kona noonoo, @@ na makahiki ewalu i kaahope aku.

            I kela ame keia manawa, a Uilama Waila e hoea aku ai imua o haliaka, e koi hoomano aku ana oia i kele kaikamahine e kakauinoa mai maluna o na palapala ana i hoomakaukau ai, a elike me kona paakiki aku i ke koi, pela no ka paakiki mai o Haliaka i ka hoole ana.

            No hookahi pule kela hoopaahaoia ana o Haliaka, aole on a lohe iki aku i kekahi mea e pili anoa i kona mama, oiai aole on a halawai iki me Mrs. Alani, i kekahi la nae, ala mai ia iloko o kona noonoo, kekahi mea pono ana e hana aku ai, i hiki ai iaia ke kamailio pu me Mrs. Alanui, a ua o Haliaka no hoi i koho iho ai, aia no ka nauki iloko o kela wahine, no ka hiki ole iaia ke kamailio pu me ia nei.

            I kekahi la, kakau iho la ua o Haliaka i kekahi leka, e hoakaka ana maloko olaila i kana mau mea apau i mekemake ai, a i ka wa Uilama Waila i hoi ai ma ka auwina la e hiamoe maloko o kona rumi, a aia no hoi o Kimo mamua mai o ka puka kahi i kiai ai, haawi aku la oia i kekahi hoailona mai ka puaka aniani aku ia Mrs. Alani i ka wa i hele aku ai kela wahine e kaula'i i na welu holoi pa maluna o ke kaula, me kona hookuukuu ana aku i kana leka mawaho o ka puka aniani me kekahi lopi.

            Ua holo mai la o Mrs. Alani a hopu i kela leka, aole e hiki ia laua ke kamilio, o Johe mai auanei o Kimo, aka ma na hoailona o Haliaka i hoakaka aku ai, no kona makemake loa e pane koke ia mai kana leka me ka hakalia ole.

            I ka maopopo ana ia Mrs. Alani na mea apau o ka hoi aku la no ia o ua wahine nei, no kona rumi, a mahope o k heluhelu ana iho i ko haliaka manao maloko o ka leka, o kona kakau iho la no ia i kana pane, a iloko o ka hapaha hora wale no, aia ua o Haliaka ke heluhelu la i ka pane o kana leka.

            O ka nuhou hoohauoli a Haliaka i ike iho ai, o ia no ka hoi liilii mai o ka noonoo maikai o kona mama, a ua oi ae no hoi ka maikai o kona mama, a ua oi ae no hoi ka maikai o kona ola kino, a i kela ame keia manawa, e ninau ae an oia. i na mea i pouliuli i kona noonoo mamua aku.
