Note 1 — PREFACE. (continued 6)

Kapakohana was the strongest man on Kauai1 and because of his great strength he, too, was reigning in place of Ola,2 the great king of that island. When rumors of the great strength of Kalaehina reached him he became very anxious to meet Kalaehina. After making his preparations he set sail from Kauai and first landed on Oahu; from Oahu he set sail for Maui, landing at Honuaula, where he left his canoe and walked to Kipahulu. That night he slept at a house where he was befriended.
