Note 20 — CONTENTS

After the searchers had gone, they remained in hiding until dark, when they came out and proceeded to Kukui, on this side of Makapuu, where Halemano had some relatives. Here they went in and made themselves known; a pig was then killed for them and they partook of a hearty meal, after which Halemano said to the people of the place: “Will some of you take us to Molokai?” At midnight they boarded a canoe and set out, landing at Kaunakakai in Molokai. Here they remained for some time farming, and when their crops were almost ripe they set out for Lele,20 Maui, where they sojourned for a time. While living in Lele, they saw the top of Haleakala as though floating above the clouds; Halemano became so enraptured at sight of the top of the mountain that he wished to move to Haleakala and live in Kaupo, Maui.
