KAHILI CHARGED
WITH The KILLING

A coroner's inquest was held last
night over the remains of Robert Ii
mahana. (name formerly printed as Ka-
lama Hana) who died as the result of
wounds received in a stabbing affray on
Punchbowl slopes.
Evidence was given by DIR. Wood
concerning his death at the hospital and
by Henry Kaulu-a and his daughter
Kealoha Kealoha Kaulu-a had lived
with the dead man for three years. She
stated that on the night of the tragedy
both men had been drinking. Kahifi,
who is now charged with the murder,
had stated TO Linlahana that he would
take Kealoha away from him and the
quarrel resulted. The men had several
scuffles before the stabbing took place
and after each were apparently friends
again
Henry Kaulu-a stated that he had
separated the men. Kahili knocked Ii
mahana down twice Kahili claimed
that Robert had cut his trousers but at
the same time Kaulu-a said that Kahili
had the knife in his hand Finally
Robert entered the house, his stomach
torn open by the knife. He told Ke-
aloha that he would die The alleged
murderer remained on the scene until
the police arrived.
The jury brought IN a verdict that
Irimahana had come to his death as the
result of a wound inflicted by a knife
in the hands of KahiIi. The verdict
was signed by c. ]. Falk, P. Silva, Isaac
L. Cockett. Henry P. Kaohi, Ed Blake,
and H. S. Crane.
