When the officers of Liloa saw that the boy’s life was forfeited to [145] the king, because he had climbed over the fence, the kapued place of the king, they chased the boy with the intention of killing him, but Umi boldly entered and sat on the lap of Liloa. Liloa then opened out his knees and Umi dropped to the floor. As Umi sat on the floor Liloa saw the necklace of whale’s tooth around the neck of Umi, and he also saw his loin cloth around the waist of Umi. Liloa then asked: “What is your name?” The boy replied: “I am Umi.” Liloa then took Umi up onto his lap and kissed him. Liloa then asked him: “Where is your mother, Akahiakuleana?” Umi replied: “She is still at home. It was by her directions that I came to you, and she gave me these things I have on me which you left with her.” When Liloa heard this he said to his men around him: “This is my own loin cloth, and this is my necklace of whale’s tooth.” Liloa then asked the boy: “Where is my war club?” Umi replied: “It is with my companion, Omaokamau, outside of the fence.” Omaokamau and Piimaiwaa were then sent for. Liloa then proceeded to tell the people how he met the mother of Umi and how he lived with her for some days, saying: “When we went to dedicate the temple, and I one day returned without my loin cloth and I had on a ti-leaf loin cloth, you said that I was crazy; but today you see that here is my loin cloth, my necklace of whale’s tooth and my war club. I left these things for my son, who is here.” [146] At the end of the king’s address they then knew that Umi was the son of Liloa. Liloa then said to his servants: “Go and get my gods and bring them in the presence of Umi to perform the ceremonies of circumcision.” [147] When the gods were set before Umi, the ceremonies were performed and the navel of Umi was cut, and the sacred drum was beaten. At the sound of the drum, Hakau, the first son of Liloa, heard it, so he asked of the servants: “Why is the drum being beaten?” “It is being beaten because the navel of the new son of the king is being cut. The young man’s name is Umi.” When Hakau heard this he came to meet Umi in a great temper. When he saw Liloa, he asked him: “Is this your new son?” Liloa answered: “Yes.” And then he continued in a kindly way: “You shall be the king and he shall be your servant. You shall be above and he shall be under you.” By these kindly words of Liloa his father, Hakau’s temper was driven away and he pretended to be reconciled to Umi. When Umi took up his residence with Liloa, he obeyed all of Liloa’s advice, and in this way warmed the heart of his father toward him. Hakau, on the other hand, ill-treated his younger brother, and he kept this up even to the day of the death of their father, Liloa.
