connections with the other districts of Savaii, founding most of the villages in Savaii, hence the name Salafai, being the official name of Savaii among the natives. Fune waxed strong and conquered the whole of Savaii, on completion of which he established seats of government in each of the districts. These seats are now the principal Fale-Safunes in Vaaisle, Sili, and Vaiafai, which with the original Safune-i-Taoa, make the four Fale Safune. "The claim by Vaifai that they are the original Safune will have to be proved by some connection with the founders. The fact that Safotu on the N. coast of Savaii retains the original name and three miles away is the original village of Safune founded by Fotu's nephew is sufficient proof that Safune-i- Taoa is where Fune lived in the original seat of his government of Savaii. "Fune courted a girl Sunalava of Palilima and the girl loved Fune. Tagaloa-Lagi the spiritual king of Samoa, also wanted Sinalaua and begged Fune to retire and give the girl up to him, in return for which he would confer upon Fune his tital and rights of Tagalog-Lagi. This is the origin of the Tagaloo title now in dispute by the Fale Safune, so if Safuno-i-Taoa was the original home of Fune, it has the first say in the title of Tagaloo." Thursday, May 15, 1924. Ashore 7:30. Field trip across lava flow of 1750 to Aopo. Took road west along beach from Safune. Noted two apparent varieties of breadfruit growing about the villages: one with deeply serrated leaves and nearly spherical fruit; the other with about 2 or 3 "teeth" near tip on each side, leaving basal part entire, and with long-ovate fruit. Road follows beach as far as Sasina, being lined with leguminous plants (No. 143) and roadside weeds, with a stretch of marsh, filled with sedge. Then it heads inland, running W. by S. to W.S.W. and soon becomes only a trail. Passes through coconut planta- tions and small patches of cocoa and bananas. Then through the lower forest - consisting principally of fuafua, noni, kului, wild oranges and the usual
