Note 85 — CONTENTS. (continued 2)

But according to the idea of some people it was Lalawalu who brought it from Kahiki;85 she brought it as her foster child, but because she was vexed at the child for constantly nipping her breast, therefore the mother made up her mind to leave it. She brought it along to Koloa, Kauai, and there she wanted to cast it away, but the child did not fancy staying there. She persevered in carrying the child until they arrived at Kaena;86 again the child did not desire to be left there, so it was brought along until they landed at Kawaipapa,87 Hana, East Maui, and it was left with him; and there it stands until this day. That was the idea of some olden people.
