Note 10 — CONTENTS.

Reading edition

Molokini is an islet,10 although it is counted as one of the Hawaiian Islands; it is comparable in size to Kaula, Nihoa and Lehua, the smallest of this Hawaiian group, and is not fit for human habitation. The subject of this story is between Kahoolawe and Makena, Maui, in a southeasterly direction from Lahaina. But what is wanted is to find out the cause of its origin. I have two important matters to present concerning the origin of this islet: 1. Relating to its having been born by parents; 2. Its originating from Haupu, that mountain on Molokai.

Explore with AITake your curiosity a little further.
