WAAWAAIKINAAUPO AND WAAWAAIKINAANAO
One day these two brothers go out snaring birds. The older brother suggests that they divide the spoils thus: He will take all those with holes on each side of the beak. The un.o.bservant younger brother consents, thinking this number will be few, and the older wins the whole catch.
KUAUAMOA
At Kawaihae, Kohala, lives the great trickster, Kuauamoa. He knows Davis and Young after they are made prisoners by the natives, and thus learns some English words. On the plains of Alawawai he meets some men going to sell rope to the whites and they ask him to instruct them what to say.
He teaches them to swear at the whites. When the white men are about to beat the peddlers, they drop the rope and run away.
