O ka mea mua loa a'u i hoomaopopo ai, he wahine malihini loa ka mea nana au e malama ana, me kona lohe ole mai i ka'u olelo, pela hoi ko'u lohe ole aku i kana mau mea e kamailio mai ana."

            Ma ka noonoo akahele ana nae o Kapena Fula, i hooholo iho ai oia, he kaikamahine kela na kekahi ohana hanohano loa a me kekahi ano nae i maopopo ole iaia ua lawe aihueia mai la e na mea kapa ia laua iho, he mau makua no Dane, me ke a'o ana iaia i ka olelo malihini, ahiki i ke luhihewaia ana aku, he kaikamahine poni kela no laua.

            O kana i koho iho ai, ua kaa mai o Dane malalo o ka malu o keia mau makua i kona manawa he ekolu a i ole he eha makahiki, a in a he ohana hanohano a waiwai ko keia kaikamahine, elike me kana e manaoio la, alaila aole on a kanalua iki, no ka hoea mai i ka la, e loaa aku a i kona ohana oiaio loa.

            Ma ka la mua o ka mahine o Iulai, i hoea mai ai o Puluka Gawila maluna mai o ka mokuahi, e holoholo ana maena o Bolatimoa ame na mokupuni liilii, a hoea wale mai i kahi i noho ai o Kapena Fula. Ma keia huakai a kela mokuahi, e holo ana ia no kekahi mokupuni okoa aku, no ka hooili ana i ka paka, a o Puluka Gawila hookahi wale no ka ohua o ka Mukupuni Fula. Ua iho aku o Kapena Fula no ka uawapo, no ka nui pu ana me kana keiki, a i ka lele ana mai o Puluka i ka uwapo, aia ka hauoli maluna o kona helehelena, i kona wa ike mai ai i kona makuakane hanauna, a ke nana aku iaia, ua kanaka makua maoli, oia, nae, he umi-kumamaono wale no on a mau makahiki i kela wa.

            I ka hele ana mai o ke kanaka opio, a lululima pu me Kapena Fua, pane mai la me ka piha hoihoi loa :

            "Auhea oe e kuu makuakane, ua loaa ia'u ka hanohano kiekie loa maloko o ke kuela, a e ike ana no oe i ko'u inoa, me na pakeneka kiekie loa ma ka'u mau haawina apau."

            "Ua maopopo ia'u e loaa naa ia oe ka holomua loa ma kau mau haawina apau," i pake aku ai o Kapena Fula, me ka haawi ana aku i kana minoaka imua o kana keiki, me ke kaohi pu ana aku no hoi i ka lima o Puluka, mai ka haawi ana mai i ka pepa hoike iaia nei.

            "He nui loa ka manawa no ka nana ana aku i kena hoike o ka mea mua e kuu keiki, o ia no ko kaua hoi ana ae no ka hale, ua makaukau ka aina ahiahi i keia manawa."

            Hoi aku la ka makuakane me ke keiki, he loihi no ia wahi a hoea aku i ka hale, aia hoi o Kapena Fula, ke hoike la, no kona hookama ana ia Dane, e hua'i pau ana i ka moolelo o kela kaikamahine, elike me kaua i manoaio ai, he kaikamahine o Dane na kekahi ohana hanohano a waiwai, a ua lawe aihueia mai oia e na mea i kapa ia laua iho, o na makua ia o kela kaikamahine, eia nae aole o uluka hoolohe pono mai kela mau olelo, no kona manao, he mau mea koho wale iho no kela na kona makuakane.

            I ko laua nei hoea ana aku no ka hale, hoi pololei loa aku la no o Puluka no kona rumi, holohoi aku la i kona lepo, me ke komo ana mai i paalole hou nona o kona iho mai la no ia no ka hale malalo, no ka ai ana i kona aina ahiahi.

            "Auhea oe e kuu keiki, ke hoolauna aku nei au ia oe ia Dane, ka'u kaikamahine hookama, a kaikuahine hoi nou. O Puluka keia e Dane, o kona hoi ana mai keia e hoohala i ka manawa hoomaha o ke kula me kaua. E kamailio aku oe i kou kaikunane nue e Dane!"

            Ma kahi nae o ka hoolohe ana aku o Dane i kela kauoha, ke ku malie loa la oia, me ka pane ole, aohe wahi mea a hopu aku i ka lima o Puluka e haawi mai la iaia no ke aloha ana, aka ke haka pono loa la kana nana ana maluna o na maka o ka opio a o ia ka Kapena Fula o ke kamailio ana mai:

            "Heaha ke kumu o kou kamailio ole ana mai ia Puluka e Dane? He hana paa rula ole, ka nana pono i kekahi mea elike me kau e hana nei." wahi ana me ka maikai ole o kona noonoo, no kela hana a Dane.

            "O Wileba Danuba keia, ka mea o ka holo like ana mai me a'u, maluna o ka mokuahi hookahi no Amerika nei," wahi a Dane, me ka mau no o kana nana ana ma na maka o ke keiki opio.

            Ua hookahaha loa ia o Kapena Fula, no kela mau olelo a Dane, me ka pane hou ana mai nae o ka ua kaikamahine nei: Aole loa e hiki ia'u ke hoohewahewa, he kuai olepe ka ia nei hana ma ke kulanakauhale o Nu Ioka!"

            Ma kela wahi, o ka Dane mu olelo hiki hou ole iho la ia Puluka ke uumi i kona aka, ua noke ae la oia i ka akaaka me ka leo nui maoli, ahiki i ka i hou ana mai o Dane:

            "Aia hoi paha la, ua pololei ka'u mea i kamailio mua ae nei, o oe maoli no o Wileba Danuba, ua hiki loa ia'u ke ike ia oe ma ke ano o kau akaaka ana, in a no aia oe iwaena o kekahi mau haneri kanaka. He o ia mau no kela mau maka uliuli poniponi ou. pela me kou lauoho, kou waha ame kou mau ano no apau i kamaaina ia'u, o oe maoli no o Wileba Danuba."

            "Ua kuhihewa loa oe e ke kaikamahine, aole loa au i hele iki e kuai olepe iloko o ko'u ola ana : aole no hoi o Wileba Danuba ko'u inoa, aka o Puluka Gawila, he pua mai au, na ka ohana Gawila, i noho mua ma ENelani i ke au e noho ana ka Moiwahine Elikapeka i ka noho kalaunu o Pelekane," wahi a Puluka Gawila, me kona noke hou ana ae i ka akaaka.

            'Pehea la oe i hoao ai e Wileba Danuba e huna mai i ka mea oiaio imua o'u? Ua lohe pono au i kou kahea me ka leo nui, i na kanaka e kuai mai i kau olepe ma na kakahiaka apau ma na alanui o Nu Ioka. Aia hoi paha la, ke hoomanao nei au i keia ano pipilipaa loa ia oe, o ia ka @@@@ o kou lehelehe luna!"

            "Ea, heaha ka manao o na mea a Dane e kamailio mai nei?" i huli ae ai o Kapena Fula, a ninau aku la i kana keiki

            "No'u iho, aole loa he wahi mea hiki ia'u, ke hoomaopopo. O keia ka manawa mua loa o ko'u ike ana i kei kaikamahine opio," me ka nana ana aku o ka opio ia Dane me ka piha i ke kahaha.
