LIFE
A. Chief of Molokai (Fornander, An Account of the Polynesian Race, vol 2 p 31).
B. "He was a warlike youth, well skilled in arms and mighty in strength and courage, and so profound was his detestation of the alien chiefs that he resolved to devote his life to such warfare as he might be able to make upon them and their subjects. With this view he relinquished his right of succession to his first brother, Keoloewa, and gathering around him a band of warriors partaking of his desperation and courage, established a stronghold on the promontory of Haupu, on the northern side of [Molokai]" (Kalakaua, The Legends and Myths of Hawaii, p 72).
