The article presents the story of a native Hawaiian. Everyday the native man plopped the pounder into the poi and sat back on his heels and smiled at the passers. The author was the native man's most attentive listener beside his dog. The native man detested a trader, poacher and self-confessed pirate of the region, a man totally sea-wise and land-droll. The trader excelled in freckles, tales and offspring. His land bounded the Hawaiian on the sea-side. The native man abhorred his landowner to the extent that he killed his friendly dog when he reached his landowner's area.
