Kauai was not a conquered island and did not come under the sway of Kamehameha by this Oahu victory, for the following year he was twice thwarted in his intended invasion of Kauai, first by the refusal of Captain Broughton in the Providence to assist him with arms and ammunition; and again, two months later, in attempting to cross the channel a storm arose which wrecked many canoes and drove the rest back to Waianae. Kauai was ceded to Kamehameha by Kaumualii in 1810. ↑
