Note 6 — CONTENTS (continued 6)

Pahia was a resident of Hilo, and was a righteous and very honest man; was not fraudulent and fickle; was not pompous nor recreant as other people. While residing in Hilo, or journeying to Kohala, if Pahia was entertained by a resident, or a friend, or a pretended wife, or brothers or parents, if the repast consisted of roasted pig, or a chicken, or turkey, or fish; or perhaps salt, or taro leaves, or roasted kukui,6 or perhaps limu7 and so forth, then Pahia would return the same. If a pig was roasted for his use, Pahia would make a remark thus: “Aia no io wahi a Pahia,” which meant, a pig was roasted for his use. Pahia would return the compliment to his entertainer when the latter came to his place; and if young taro leaves8 were given to Pahia to eat, Pahia would give his entertainer the same thing when the latter visited him. And if roasted kukui was given to Pahia, he would likewise compliment with the same ingredient, and in the same way in all other things.
