“Ua ike no anei oe ia’u e ki ana I ka mea nawaliwali,” i pane okalakala aku ai ka panapua i kona Haku. “Ho mai ka pua.”
“O ka okalakala ame ka haau leo na hana e hoohana ai no keia Manawa o ka hana,” wahi a ka Emepera iaia iho no, alaila @awi aku la oia i na ua i ka panapua.
Ma ka aoao o ke Kauna Bitarika ua kauoha aku no oia i kona mau koa e ki aku I ka panapua oluna o ka aleo aole nae he hooloheia nui no ka mea aia na koa ma kahi malu e hiki ole ai i na ua e iho mai ana mai ka aleo mai.
Ua maalahi ka haawi kauoha ana a he hana paakiki hoi ka hookoia oiai ua ike no oia amen a koa ona he mea paakiki ka hoolele hoopii ana i ka lakou pua iluna i ka aleo. A hala kekahi Manawa na pakele aku la ua mau koa nei ma ka holo ana a nalowale iloko o ka ululaau e ku kokoke mai ana.
Me ka nui huhu o ke Kauna Bitarika aole no nae i nalowale kona noonoo maikai, oiai ua lele koke iho la oia mailuna iho o kona he me ka nana ole ae i ka lele mai o na pua o ka alleo, ame ka ikaika nui ua olokaa aku la oia i ka pauku laau i kaawale ae ai mai kona mau koa aku i eha.
“Uwoki,” i kauoha ikaika aku ai ka Emepera, ke kumu no hoi i ike koke iho ai ka panapua i ka ikaika io o ia kauoha a kona Haku a ku mumule iho la no hoi oia me ka pane leo. “Mai ki aku i ke kanaka i makaukau ole,” a oia no hoi ka lele ana iho o Bitarika mai kona lio iho.
“Aole keia he hoomaamaa, aka he lanakila maoli nou a nou wale no no keia la. Aole au i ike i kekahi kanaka Pelekane mamua o like me a’u i ike ai ia oe i keia la.”
“O, ina e ike oe i kuu hoaloha ia Roga Keneta oia ka mea i oi loa aku ma keia mea kaua, a ina oia kekahi ma keia kaua ana, aole like me keia, no ka mea, aole ana ki ana e hala ai.”
I ke Kauna Paele e ku ana i ke kahua pukuniahi laau ua hule mai la oia a nana mai la iluna o ke aleo poepoe me na hiohiona mehaha o ka hauoli. Ua ani aku la no hoi ka Emepera i kona lima me ka pane leo nui ana aku me ka hauoli:
“Pehea iho la ia?”
“He mea oiaio, he kamahao maoli. E malama pono iho oe i ka panapua I ole e loaa ka poino iaia. He manao ko’u e puhi aku o keia pukuniahi laau i kea hi a me ia no hoi e ho-a ai i kea hi e @ ai ka kakou mau mea ai. Oia ka waiwai o keia mea.”
“Aole I maamaa loa na koa ou,” wahi a Rodolfo i pane hou aku ai. “E haawi hou iho i haawina na lakou.”
K ka Manawa i kaawale ae ai ka pauku laau ua ike koke iho la ke Kauna Bitarika i ka nui o kona mau koa i make. Ua hooneenee aku la no hoi oia ma kahi e hana ana ke Kauna Paele me kona mau koa ma kahi o ka pukuniahi hoolele pohaku no ka manao no e papaheo, a ua hoike mai la no hoi ke Kauna Paele i kona manao haawipio ole ina e hoomau aku ana ke Kauna Bitarika.
“E kuu Haku o Turona,” wahi a ke Kauna Bitarika iaia i hookokoke aku ai i kahi o ke Kauna Paele e kau ana, “oiai he wahi poino liilii wale no ko makou e hiki ke kau aku maluna ou a i ole aole no paha, nolaila ke noi aku nei wau ia oe e oluolu mai e haawi kea o’a i eha a e hoihoi aku i na koa i make. No ka loaa ole ia’u ka hae haawipio me a’u i keia Manawa oiai au i hele kino mai la e haawipio ia oe.”
“Ua aeia kau noi e kuu Haku,” wahi a ke Kauna Paele i pane aku ai, “ina aole oe i haawipio mai nei ina aole e aeia aku kou makemake. A ke manaolana nei no hoi au o ka lanakila o keia la hoouka kaua ua lawa ia no na ikaika kuwaho e pakaha ole ai i ko’u pono ponoi.”
“Ma o ka’u e ike nei i kou Akamai ma ke kaua, ke ike pu la no hoi au i ka mamao loa o ko makou kahua hoomoana mai ka poino au e waiho ae ai ina pela kou manao.”
Ma keia mau olelo ua huli ae la ua Kauna Bitarika nei a hoomaka aku la i ka lawelawe ana i kona mau koa i poino i ka poe i eha na manele aku lakou no kahi o ka lapaau iloko o ka halelole mai a i ka poe i make ua kanuia aku la lakou i ka honua.
“E hahai mahope o’u,” wahi a ke Kauna Paele i kauoha aku ai i kona mau koa, “a no ka aleo o ke kukulu akau ko kakou wahi o ka hana. E hele kakou ilaila e hooponopono ai i kolaila mikini hoolei pohaku.”
I ke Kauna Paele e hele ana no ua wahi la ana i makemake ai ma iho mai la no hoi ka Emepera no ka hui pu ana me ka Paele.
“Pa pii ana wau I ka aleo o ke kukulu akau no ko’u makemake e ike i ke kahua o na halelole o na Akibihopa, ina aole au hoohalahala no ia mea,” i pane aku ai ke Kauna.
“Aole he hoohalahala,” wahi a Rodolfo.
“Ua makemake no hoi au a hooponopono ia pukuniahi no ka hoolele pohaku aku iloko o na halelole o na Akibihopa. Pehea ia i kou manao?” i ninau hou aku ai ke Kauna.
“Ina aia me ia ka ikaika no ka hana aohe he hana e ae i koe o ka hoolele wale aku no.”
Me keia mau olelo ua lana loa ae la ka manao uwilani o ua keiki nei o Turona a emoole hiki ana oia i ua aleo la me na koa ona e hahai ana mahope ona. Mahope iho o na hooponopono ana i ua mikini nei ua hookomo aku la lakou i kekahi pohaku poepoe nui kapono a me ka ikaika nui o ka hana ame ka paa o ka manao e hoohele i ua pohaku la iloko o na halelole o ka enemi, aia hoi ua lele aku la ua pohaku nei, ame ka manaolana mua ole o ua Kauna nei e holopono ana kana hoolala, he ike an aka lakou i ka poholo ana o ua pohaku nui nei iloko o kekahi halelo nui e ku ana ma ke kukulu komohana o ke kahua hoomoana, a hamama ana he puka nui maluna o ua halelole la ke kumu a lakou nei i hoomaopopo keke ai aia ka pohaku iloko o na halelole la.

NUPEPA KUOKOA, APERILA 15, 1904
Ma ke kukuluia ana o ka halelole o ka Akibihopa o Kolone, ua hoomoeia kona papahele me na jua nunui a i palainapunaia e hiki ole ai ke wawahi ia me ka maalahi a he paa maoli no o ka hanaia ana. E like no pela ko kona kokoolua, a i kela ame keia Manawa o ka la aole i nele ko laua hui kukakuka pu ana no na hana o ka hoonee ana i ke kaua no ka lilo pio mai o ke Kakela Turona.
E noho hookah ana no ka Akibihopa Kona-la Vona Hokedana o Kolone iloko o kona halelole me ka noonoo nui ana i na hana o ka hoouka kaua oia no ka Manawa i komo aku ai kona alihikaua, ke kenerala i hele pu ai me ke Kauna Bitarika i ke Kakela Turona no ka haawipio mai o ua kakela la.
“Eau a olelo mai oe ia’u ua hala aku nei ke Kauna Bitarika. Ua komo pu aku anei kuu mau koa ma ia hana?” Ona olelo keia a ka Akibihopa i pane aku ai mamua o ka loaa ana he Manawa na kona kenerala e olelo ai.
“Aole e kuu Haku,” wahi a Amaborose, ke kanaka ana i bilinai ai. “Ua hooikaika aku nei wau i ke Kauna Bitarika aole e hoomaka koke i ke kaua a loaa mai ke kauoha mai ia olua aku, eia nae, aole i hooloheia mai. Aole i hui aku he hookahi ou koa, a ua hooukaia mai nei ke kaua, a ua pau kekahi poe i ka make a eha no hoi kekahi.”
“Ua pololei kau hana a ua maikai,” wahi a ka Akibihopa, “ke manao nei wau ua pehuia ke poo o ke Kauna Bitarika, no ka mea i ka nana aku i kana mau hana, me he la oia no kona luna me ka ui ole mai. Ina e loaa ka lanakila ma keia kaua alaila e hoomau an aka Akibihopa Iseneboga i ka malama ana iaia aka ina e lanakila ole alaila e hookuu ana kona haku iaia. Ua loaa anei he manaolana no ka lilo pio mai o ke Kakela Turona, a ua loaa anei kekahi mau hoolala no ka lilo pio io mai?”
“Aole i maopopo loa ia’u na wahi o kona nawaliwali e hiki maalahi ai ke kaua aku a pela no hoi ka maopopo ole ia’u o ka nui o kona ikaika e hiki ai ke kupale nona iho i ka Manawa o ke kaua.”
“Alaila he mea pono e loaa ia’u he mau ike maopopo e pili ana i keia hana nui mai ka Akibihopa Iseneboga mai, mamua o ka hooholo ana o’u e hooko aku, nolaila, e kuu Amaborose, ke kauoha aku nei au ia oe e kono aku i ka Akibihopa e hele koke mai iloko o keia halelole a’u e noho nei, me ka hoike pu aku iaia eia au ke kali nie iaia.”
Mahope iho o ka haalele ana o ka Moneka, ke kenerala Amaborose, ua komo mai la ka Akibihopa Iseneboga i ukali pu ia hoi e kona kakauolelo Moneka. Mahope iho o na haawi aloha ana e like me ka mau, ua hoomaka iho la laua e kukakuka no ka ninau nui i ka ‘ika’iia mai ai ia laua me ko laua mau koa no ke kahua hoomoana.
“Ua hoikeia mai ia’u ua komo kaua aku nei ke Kauna Bitarika i ke Kakela Turona,” wahi a ka Akibihopa Hokedana, “a ua lilo mai nei kekahi mau ola a eha kekahi poe, a na hanaia aku keia mea me ka ui mua ole mai ia’u no ka hui pu ana e like me ka aelike i hanaia.”
“Ina ua hana mai nei oia e like me kau i hoike mai la.” Bwahi a Akibihopa Iseneboga i pane aku ai me kea no hoka o ka uanaiana, “alaila ua maua’e oia i na kuhikuhi i waihoa aku nana e hana.”
“Ua ha’I pu ia mai no hoi ia’u ua hoike aku oia i ke Kauna Paele o ke Kakela Turona ua loaa mai ia oe he mana piha mai ka Emepera Rodolofo mai. Heaha kea no o keia mana ou?”
“Ma kena mea no,” wahi hou a ka Akibihopa Iseneboga, “ua hewa ke Kauna bitarika. Aole hookah o ia ano me a’u a aole no wau i ike iki i ka Emepera.”
“Malia paha ua loaa mai ia mana ia oe ma ka leka?” i ninau hou ia aku ai.
“Aole uo he leka i loaa mai ia’u mai ka Emepera mai a aole no a’u leka iaia.”
“Alaila, he mea kamahao loa keia o ka loaa ana o kekahi hoike mai kou kanaka aku, e hoike ana i keia mana ou,” i pane hou aku ai ka Akibihopa Hokedana.
“Aole pili o ia mau hemahema maluna o’u,” wahi a ka Akibiho9pa Iseneboga i pane aku ai me ka leo ikaika. “Aole i hoi mai ke Kauna Bitarika a hiki i keia Manawa, aka i kona Manawa e hoea mai ai e ui aku ai au no ka hoike mai i na mea apau, a e ninaninauia oia bimua o kou alo. Ua maopopo ia’u he kauaka hoopaakiki oia aka hana ana aku i na limahana e ae olioli mai ana no ka hana mai ame ka hoao nui ana e kaomi na ano ikiiki e pono ai ka noho pu ana me ia ano kanaka.
Mahope iho o na olelo a ka Akibihopa Iseneboga, ua loheia aku la ka uwa nui ana mai o ke Kakela Turona, ke kumu nana i hoala ae i ka noonoo o ka poe e noho apa iloko o ka halelole- na Akibihopa am eke kakauolelo Moneka no ka hoolono ana i kela uwa le nui mai kahi e manaoia ana e lilo pio, a no kekahi mau minute ka noho mumule ana ua pane aku la ka Akibihopa o Kolone a oia no ka nua loa nana i khamaha ae i ko lakou noho hamau ana.
“O kela uwa a kakou e lohe la me he la eia koke ae no, a’u hoi e manao la no ke Kauna Bitarika. He mea maikai paha ka hoouna ana aku i mau koa hou nona no ka hoopuipui ana aku i kona ikaika, Pehea la ia?”
“Alia ka hoouna i mau koa nona a hiki i ka Manawa e maopopo lea mai ai na mea ana i hana aku nei ame keia uwa ina nei he uwa no ka lanakila o ko kakou aoao. E pono paha e hoouna aku i elele i maopopo ai. Aole e pono e ae wale aku i keia hoohana ana me ka loaa ole aku o kekahi kanoha mana,” wahi a ka Akibihopa Iseneboga i hoololo aku ai me kea no ko’iko’i.
“Aole ou ano pihoihoi,” i panai aku ai kona hoakuka. No’u iho he pihoihoi loa au no ko’u mau koa a he ake no ko’u e lohe aku pehea la ko lakou kulana ikaika.”
“O ko’u manao wale no a’u e upu mau nei oia no ka hui like ana o ko kaua mau ikaika a hoohana aku maluna o keia hana nui,” wahi a ka Akibihopa Iseneboga i pane hou aku ai. “He hookah wale no mea hookuha’u nui ia kaua oia no ka hana wale aku o ke Kauna Bitarika e like me kona makemake me ka ui ole mai ia kaua, a maluna olaila wau e kanalua nei I ka lanakila o ka holomua o ka kana hana. He mea maikai no ka hoike piha ana ina manao I pau na ano hoohuoi a no’u iho aole au i makemake iki i keia mau alakai a ke Kauna.”
O na olelo a ka Akibihopa Iseneboga i olelo ae ai ua pau pono no, aka mahope koke iho ua hoopuiwa a hookikilele loa ia lokou mamuli o kekahi mea hoopa-hu kamahao iloko o ko lakou halelole e noho ana. Ua hala ae he mau minute pokole mahope iho o ka loheia ana o ka uwa mai ke Kakela Turona mai, a he owe nabae lole ana ka lakou i lohe, aia hoi, pa-hu ana kekahi phaku nui ano poepoe iluna o ka papahele o ka halelole i haule pono iho ai mawaena o na Akibihopa a kaka aku la me ka ikaika nui e hooku’iku’i ana i na pono oloko o ka hlelole, ke kumu i paub ai ia mau mea i ka nahaha a helelei mai ko lakou wahi i waihoia ai, eia nae, aole he mea o lakou i eha i ka pohaku, a o ka halelole ua uabae pu ae la, me kekahi puka nui e hamama ana i ka lani.
“Ina he manaoio wau iloko o na ouli kai@naha,” wahi a ka Akibihopa o Kolone me ka nanaina o kea no e hoike mai ana he manaoio no oia i ano kuluma, “alaila he haawina keia no kea no pakalaki.”
Huli wale mai la no ka Akibihopa o Tarevis a nana mai la i kona hoa me ka maka’u nui me ka eeke pu ana ae o kona mau poohiwi.
“Ma ka ulia wale no keia pohaku i komo mai nei iloko nei,” wahi ana i pane ae ai. “Aka, e hoouna aku ana wau i hae haawipio i ke Kauna Henerika a e hoopau i kana hana o keia ano hana hoolele hauli.
