Note 6 — CONTENTS (continued 6)

When Kalaiopuu died at Waioahukini in Kau, the chiefs of Hilo and Kau6 brought his dead body to Kona, in canoes. That was not, however, the real object of their coming, but they came to Kona, the land that they had been longing for, to divide it up, and also to make war. On the way from Kau to Kona, they and the corpse of Kalaiopuu were caught in the rains on the ocean; therefore, they turned in and landed at Honaunau, in South Kona, without reaching Kailua, in North Kona, where they had intended to land. When they landed at Honaunau, Keeaumoku7 came to pay his respects to the remains of Kalaiopuu. On this occasion Keeaumoku well knew by the looks of the chiefs and the men that there was war brewing.
