CHAPTER XX

[Footnote 61: At the accession of a new chief in Hawaii the land is

redistributed among his followers.]

[Footnote 62: The names of Malio and Halaaniani are still to be found in

Puna. Ellis (1825) notes the name Malio as one of three hills (evidently

transformed demigods), which, according to tradition, joined at the base

to block an immense flow of lava at Pualaa, Puna. Off the coast between

Kalapana and Kahawalea lies a rock shaped like a headless human form and

called Halaaniani, although its legend retains no trace of the Puna

rascal.]
