Welina e nā mea hula:

Mahalo for everyone's support! At the end of January 1997, my "baby" was stolen. 'O Makuakani kona inoa. It is my pahu that was made by my father. The word went out about the pahu, and flyers were sent out and flyers were received and duplicated by people who I didn't even know. I want to thank all of the people out there in the Wai'anae commtmity as well as the community-at-

large, who were so concerned for me and my pahu. have had so many people eome to ask me about my pahu and to let me know that they had so mueh aloha for what happened. I think that because of all of the mana'o maika'i and the positive mana that eame my way, the pahu was recovered. The baby is back in the hale, it ean no longer remain in the hālau. Her leo was heard foi the first time in public at the 24 hour vigil at the Stat<

I Capitol. Again, mahalo nui loa i nā mea apau no ko 'oukou kūkulu kumuhana. Mililani Allen Hālau Hula o Mililani Wai'anae, Hawai'i r 3
