Kaneohe, April 14, 1836.

Six canoes sailed from Molokai. One sunk in the ocean with two people, Kahoaoka is the name of one of them, and Kaohihae is the name of the other. They sailed into the middle of the ocean where they came upon a tempest, the canoes were scattered by the wind, and five survived, they made it to land, while the sixth sank. Some of the cargo of the sunken canoe came ashore, an umeke and a lauhala pillow and some other belongings, but the canoe and the two men did not; the two of them died.
