himself a kite, and after it was completed he flew it up. When Kawelo saw the kite 

 he took a liking to it and so went home to his grandparents and requested them to 

 make him a kite/ The grandparents thereupon made Kawelo a kite and after it was 

 completed he took it out and flew it up. When Kauahoa saw Kawelo with a kite he 

 came with his and they flew them together. While they were flying their kites, 

 Kawelo's kite became entangled with Kauahoa's kite which caused Kauahoa's to 

 break away and it was carried by the wind till it landed at Koloa, to the west. The 

 name of the place where the kite landed is known as Kahooleinapea to this day, 

 because of the fall of Kauahoa's kite there. 



After Kauahoa's kite was broken away, Kawelo looked at Kauahoa with the 

 belief that surely Kauahoa would come and attack him ; but since Kauahoa did not 

 come Kawelo said within himself: "Kauahoa will never overcome me if we should 

 ever meet in any future battle." Kauahoa was a much larger boy than Kawelo, still 

 he was afraid of him.' 



After flying their kites, they went in swimming and riding down the rapids. 

 In this Kawelo again showed himself to be more skilful than Kauahoa, which caused 

 Kawelo to be more sure in his belief that Kauahoa will never overcome him in the 

 future. Kawelo and Kauahoa were not separated from one another in the matter of 

 their relationship; they were connected, and so was the young chief. Aikanaka. He 

 was connected in blood to the two boys, a fact which made Aikanaka something like 

 an older brother and lord to them. Everything Aikanaka wished was granted to him, 

 whether in stringing wreaths, or other things, they never denied him anything. 



While Kawelo and his grandparents were living at Wailua with Aikanaka and 

 the others, Kawelo's older brothers, together with their grandparents, left Kauai 

 and came to live in Waikiki, Oahu. Kakuhihewa was the king of Oahu at this time. 

 There was living with Kakuhihewa, a very strong man who was a famous wrestler. 

 This man used to meet the older brothers of Kawelo in several wrestling bouts but 

 they never could throw him down. The brothers of Kawelo were great surf riders, 

 and they often went to ride the surf at Kalehuawehe.'' After the surf ride they 

 would go to the stream of Apuakehau and wash, and from there they would go to the 

 shed where the wrestling bouts were held and test their skill with Kakuhihewa's 

 strong man; but in all their trials they never once were able to throw him. 



While living separated from each other, the older brothers of Kawelo being 

 in Oahu, their grandparents, who were with Kawelo in Wailua, after a while, began 

 to long for a sight of the other grandchildren, so one day they sailed for Oahu, 

 bringing Kawelo with them, and they landed at Waikiki where they were met by' 

 the older brothers of Kawelo. After deciding to make their home in Waikiki, Kawelo 

 took up farming and also took unto himself a wife, Kanewahineikiaoha, the daugh- 

 ter of Kalonaikahailaau, and they lived together as husband and wife. 



While Kawelo was one day working in his fields, he heard some shouting down
