the spear point is still in his arm. It will be the means hy which the man conld be 

 recognized." 



When Kaknhihewa heard this, he issned a call for ever3'body to come together, 

 no man, woman or child to remain at home, excepting those who when they fell down 

 were unable to get up again, and those who were so sick that the}' could not walk. 

 After everybody had come together, the farmer proceeded to look for his man by look- 

 ing at their arms; but he was unable to locate him. He then asked Kaknhihewa: 

 "Is there no one left?" "None," said the king, "except my son-in-law who is asleep at 

 home, and has done nothing requiring him." "Send for him and let me see [his arm]," 

 said the farmer. When Kalelealuaka came up to the farmer and held up his arm the 

 point of the spear was found. The farmer then remarked: "vSurely, this is the man 

 that slew all of Pneonui's men, and this is the very man whom I saw coming in the 

 early morning while I was on my way to work and at whom I threw the spear, the point 

 of which is still in his arm. I also saw him returning with war helmets and feather 

 capes, and I am certain his house must be filled with those articles; let someone be sent 

 to fetch them." When the man that was sent returned, he brought with him several 

 war helmets and feather capes which made a huge pile, proving that it was Kalelea- 

 luaka that caused the overthrow and final defeat of Pueonui. So Kalelealuaka was made 

 chief ruler, while Kakuhihewa served under him. 



Legend of Pumaia. 



ON THE land of Pnkoula which adjoins Waiahao ' in the district of Kona, Oahu, 

 was the home of Pumaia. His chief occupation with that of his wife, was hog 

 raising. Thej' at one time had as manj' as ten hog pens; but amongst his whole 

 herd [of hogs] there was one he thought a good deal more of than all the others; one 

 that measured over a fathom in length which he had vowed he would never part from. 

 This hog was to be kept until the death of Pumaia when it was to be killed. 



Kualii who was king at this time, was building the temple called Kapua, which 

 was situated to the east of Leahi Hill overlooking Mamala. At the completion of the 

 temple, Kualii ordered that a hog be brought from Pumaia. Upon the arrival of the 

 messengers, Pumaia asked them: "What is the object of j'our call?" "We have been 

 sent by Kualii to 3-011 for a hog for the temple. You give us one." "Yes, you can 

 have one," said Pumaia. "There is the pig pen." This request was kept up until all the 

 ten hog pens were exhausted and there remained but the one hog he thought so much 

 of. After a time Kualii sent his men for another hog. Upon their arrival in the pres- 

 ence of Pumaia, they were asked: "What has brought you here?" "We have been sent 

 by Kualii to come for the hog that is left." "Yon shall not have it. He is only seek- 

 ing trouble. I thought he was reallj' in need of swine, but no." The men then grabbed 

 the hog and fought with Pumaia for its possession, many against one. In this fight
