full-grown
cocoanut tree, came up to the surface of the water and stood there
like a cocoanut grove. The men were frightened, for it approached and
went right into the canoes with the intention of destroying them and
the men and capturing the leho; but it failed, because Aiai's friend,
with his skill and power, had provided himself with a stone, which,
at the proper time, he shoved into the head of the squid; and the
weight of the stone drew it down to the bottom of the sea and kept
it there, and being powerless to remove the stone, it died. The men
seized and cut off one of the arms, which was so big that it loaded
the canoes down so that they returned to Hana. When the squid died, it
turned to stone. It is pointed out to-day just outside of Wailuanui,
where a stone formation resembles the body of a squid and the arms,
with one missing.

When Aiai saw from the pali that his friend was successful in killing
the hee, he returned to Hana unseen, and in a short while the canoes
arrived with its arm, which was divided among the people according
to the directions of Aiai.

When Aiai saw that his friend and others of Hana were skilled in
all the art of fishing, he decided to leave his birthplace and
journey elsewhere. So he called a council of his friends and told
them of his intended departure, to establish other fishing stations
and instruct the people with all the knowledge thereof in conformity
with the injunction of Ku-ula his father. They approved of the course
contemplated and expressed their indebtedness to him for all the
benefits he had shown them.

On leaving Aleamai he took with him the fish-hook, _manaiaakalani_,
and the fish pearl, _Kahuoi_, for aku from the little cave where
he had lodged on the hill of Kaiwiopele, and then disappeared in the
mysterious manner of his parents. He established ku-ulas and ko'a aina,
by placing three fish stones at various points as far as Kipahulu. At
the streams of Kikoo and Maulili there stands a stone to-day, which
was thrown by Aiai and dropped at a bend in the waters, unmoved by
the many freshets that have swept the valleys since that time.

Out in the sea of Maulili is a famous station known as Koanui. It
is about a mile from the shore and marks the boundary of the sea of
Maulili, and the fish that appear periodically and are caught within
its limits have been subject to a division between the fishermen and
the landowner ever since. This is a station where the fisherman
