I had been married over a week and I did not know my wife's name. "Kippiputuonaa," she murmured musically. "Taro ititi aa moieha ephaa lihaha?" I questioned, which, freely translated, is "What?" "Kippiputuonaa." Then, throwing back her head with its superb aureole of hair she softly crooned the words and music of the choral which the community chorus had sung on our wedding night.
Radiant Kippiputuonaa whom I soon called "Kippy" for short your name shall ever remain a blessed memory, the deepest and dearest wound in my heart. Kippy proposed that I should be marked for identification in the usual manner, but I shuddered at the thought. I was far too ticklish; I should have died under the needle! What days of joyous romping we had!
Both Kippiputuonaa and Lupoba-Tilaana felt this to a marked degree, but most of all was it apparent in its affect on Mrs. "Tiplette, naue aata b'nau boti!" she used to cry. "Do not let Triplett go in the boat." The old man was insistent. He had worked William Henry Thomas to exhaustion rerigging the craft and then thrust him out, bag and baggage.
