$. kailaa-Nothing said between
Paikuli and myself about pay. Was
not paid SO. ! slept at Kahao's
house on night previous TO the cleo
ton. Went there in the afternoon
and had supper, lodging and break
fast. Then went home.
Cross-eXamincd - Paikuli never
said anything about reward for SER
vices at any time. If Paikuli put
down my name as having received
any money the entry is false. Have
known Paikull about thirty years.

he is liable TO err. DO not know of
any fact or circumstance which
would account for the insertion OF
the item. Pail.uli never promised
me any money. Met Mr.. Rose Sa-
turday morning about 10 O'Clock.

Kaali-Livc at Heeia. Was no,
runner for Paikuli. Never had
any conversation about it. He did
not pay me any money for this or
anything else. Am not related to

part Of the district. Never went
with him to offer to act as luna tc
Paikul. Never received money.
Pailiuli did not find me to give me
money. Knew it was against the
law to receive money for such pur-
poses. Did not tell Paikuli he had
no right to engage lunas. Did not
know no was engaging any. (To
Rosa.) Never saw exhibit before.
