Lahaina, June 27th, 1842
Greetings to you, Mr. Cooke. I received your letter and have noted its contents concerning the
illness troubles of some of our children and the illness of your wife. Much love to you all.
It is almost time for us two to go and meet you face to face, for on July 13 I shall be in the
church there and at that time perhaps we shall meet.
We live with love to you and with prayer to God to give you peace and us also. There is no
disturbance here, only goodness.
Greetings to you and your children and your wife.
Kekauluohi

Greetings to you, Mr. Cooke
�I have received your letter and have seen the message within regarding the trouble of
some of our children as well as the infirmity of your wife; intense regard to you all.
The time is approaching when we two will sail there and all of us can meet face to face,
for on the 13th of July, the church opens and perhaps then we will all meet together.
We abide with great affection for you all and pray to God for protection over all of you
and for all of us as well. Also, there is no disturbance in our lives and all is well.
Regards to you, our children and to your wife.
