SUMMARY:
Keola a young man was the son-in-law of Kalamake, an old sorcerer. Kalamake and Keola set fire to leaves on a carpet
and turned up on an island in Hawaii. They collected shells because Kalamake turned them into money, they came
back just in time and they appeared on the ground with a lot of money. They distributed it to him and Keola thought
that he could take advantage of Kalamake, but Keola and Kalameke went to the sea where there were bones at the
bottom and Kalamake got big and destroyed the boat and left Keola in the sea. Keola was picked up by a boat because
they lost a crew member in the storm.
