Note 70 — CONTENTS. (continued 2)

Another noted thing which was done there was cooking whales70 during the life-time of Keokiko, a half-white. When he was living this was one of his occupations, that is to cook whales; he gave a great deal of his time to this work. He caught many fish, he cooked many whales there during the years 1849–1859, if I mistake not. It was also a place for cooking sharks’ liver. At that place is a large pot for cooking whales, also a box for confining whales.71 Many people went there to see and examine that strange thing during those years.
