Reading edition
An Incident: About A.D. 1836, a high sea occurred, the like of which had never been seen before. At that time Kaili was living at Lamaloloa, in Kohala, when the writer of this account was thirteen years of age. At that time Kaili predicted of this great sea, he being a man taught in weather prophecy, of chiefly rank on the side of Kalaimoku. This is what he prophesied: “A chief will soon die,” and shortly afterwards, Naihe,25 a chief, died at Kaawaloa.
