STATEMENT OF CLAIM: Clement Reinunu the Plaintiff claims that the defendant Eliel Tagotada did work on his land at URAGAI without the owners permission.
PLEA: NOT LIABLE.
PLAINTIFFS SIDE:
Clement Reinunu, Sworn States: The plain known as Kolomatoba was in my hands. I hold it because my ancestors lived there in the past days. At a time of JOE LOVE the headman and a police man John Labe and Jack check put me and told me, and said to me, you Clement Reinunu, its good for you to go down to URAGHAI, and I then gather the Lakatana, Lusuruka and Kerana people and live with them. For our ancestors died and no one to look after them. I did what the headman said and we came down and build our homes there at URAGAI. We stayed around the plain there. We build all we need and a church. All who stayed there were under me. I lived there untill now, and never heard that this land belongs to Lakuili Line, no one came and even try to chase me out of this land During my stay there I made three big feast all who lived there gathered to me to join the feast. And no any of these Lakuili lines as Tago, ever stopped me to do this feasts. Or even chase me out. My grandmother Mrs Lusuisikai and my mothers Mrs Luvule told me that this land is mine with the bushes, they were buried in URAGBAI land, KILISI the son of the headman also told me the same thing as my grandmother and mother told me. Hearing and knowing that the land is mine, I started to cut the bushes at Kolomatoba to the main road at Galavuna, Boloda, and wont beyond the main road to TINA RIVER and planted 200 coconut trees on the other side of TINA RIVER known as CHIBA, there, I stop to work there with my people. I was looking after KAKAU and LAKUILI line of this area. I knew well that the plains at Kolomatoba situated at URAGAI LAND. Belongs to me. My great grandies put me there. I live on the land inside 40 years and did not hear any Lakuili lines claims that this land was his. The dispute came out only last year, when ELIEL TAGOTADA came and wanted to work there and stopped him twice, I put up the Notice Board and he spoiled it. I stopped him because I did not know him. If he owns this part why didn't he stopped me living on his land for such a long time. From Kakeuga to LERANA belongs to me. My ancestors lived there, and I followed them by using their land. KAKAUGA was where, TURAKAEA lived, then he came down to the plains below the hill and came to KUSAGE and VATUKAPITSA and POISUGU where he died and put the land on my hand.
STRAC INUVI lived at KERANA and then came down to VERA TITA and Kolotsimiu where he died and also put the land on my hands. BENJAMIN TATAO and MATAVATI also put the land on my hands. LOBOA also did the same, so thats all I can tell the Court.

1ST PLAINTIFF WITNESS 
Samson Rasile Sworn States: Area shown yesterday belongs to us of the Kakau line. We owned it, for our ancestors used this part below at the plains as to make gardens and keep pigs. When the head of our Line died, people used it as a home, they lived 10 years before the war. During war my brother REINUNU and myself, came down there at URIHGAI and live there until today. We stayed there 50 years. During that time we did not hear any claims at all from the Lakuili line mentioning that the land belongs to them. But in 1979 Eliel Tagotada claims that this part of land belongs to him or the Lakuili line. KAKAU LINE lived there first and also first cut the bushes there. In 1935-1942 I can remembered this old mans lived, CHULU, MATARIU, BASILIO, INUVI TURAKAEA, LIVUTALUA, AREVUA & MATAVATI. Today Clement REINUNU and SAMSON RASILE.

MISILISI, Sworn States: I remembered KAKAUGA was empty for a long time, I remembered that this land belongs only to KAKAU line. It was at Kolmatoba plains, the ancestors of Eliel Tagotada came to Kakauga and stayed under Kakau lines power. My ancestors told his ancestors before they came to Kakauga and do not own the spearline they showed us at URAGAI. When I grow up I never heard of any ancestors of Defendant to live at URAHAI. When my ancestors came down to URAHGAI, there was no place or village there. Every days of my life there I did not see any ancestors of the defendant among my tribe who lived there, I am older then any body here today. I only saw the defendant's ancestors at TSARIMALEGA and TINA RIVER SIDE. From KOITSIGI to KOTSITOA belongs to Kakau and not Lakuili line.

7TH P/W 
RENISI, Sworn States: I am from the Western Solomons. I came here in 1964 with Michal TOVA, relative of the Kakau Line. I stayed with Strack Inuvu at URAGAI. One day he told me that I can do any thing I wanted to do on this part of land. Starting from the last two years, I heard the defendant claims that this land was his or belongs to Lakuili line. Clement REINUNU the Plaintiff lived at URAHGAIA long time before I come here. In AUGUST 2nd 1964, an oldman named Philip asked me, whom did I came with, and I said with Michael TOVA, and asked me where were we were staying and I said at URAHAI. Then he said, you can live there that's the really place of Kakau line. Two big feast was done when I was with Clement REINUNU, and no one came and stopped him from doing this feast, that is why I believe the land known as URAHAI LAND belongs to Kakau Line.

	SIDE OF THE PLAINTIFF FINISHED.
DEFENDANT SIDE.
ELIEL TAGOTADA Sworn States: I am known as a LAKUILI LINE called GOROTAVULI. We came through TINA Head River at TSOKI, TORO came first to TSOKI, then to daolo, where TUQAVENUA owned and then we came to SALOTO, KOKOLE owned there and put a TAMBU place of the EAGLE, THEN to BULAGE where tola owned and TAMBU place of KAVEMATETORA there, then to KAKAUGA, the property or area of Kakauga reached down at URAHGAI. Spearline was at Kolomatoba on the right side and KUSAGI on the left. Upon the hill, Kakauga, VANGARUGU and TUANIGALI cut the bushes there and build homes there, then came GADOKESA and TUANIBOLI after them, and put 2 tambu places there called PELOPELO and TAVULI KENGE. Then GESE came up and put the TAMBU place of the EAGLE there, called SALOTOKIKI. GESE has three sons, SOGO, NGIDANA, KOLOBU of KAKAU VATUVULO, When GESE died, VOU, KUA, MANGANI, when they died the Kakauga was empty and bushes for a long time. TUGASALE started at TSAVUKADORA and came down to collect Ngalinuts there. One of our old ancestors lived at URAHAI named TUGATASIMARE. Tasimare's sons were VISULE and SERELE, MATAVATI married my grandmother, "Kidakidou" her childrens were LOVATOGOU. SERELE, VISULE, I saw then with my eyes. LOVA TOGOU is head of our LINE today. The Kakau lines says that Lakuili has not owned any ground there, but I remembered that PETER Brown TOBAINULI of Kakau line was taken here by my two grandys. He did not own this part of land. KERANA belongs to Kakau Line. I knew that I can't say a word about Kerana. I am talking only about Kakauga. C. Reinunu did not own Koitsigi, he claims that he owns there. Because his ancestors came and stayed there and made feast, he is not a Koitsigi line. Only the Gaubata and Kakau-Vatuvulo owned there. Rokona, Clement Reinunu's ancestor came and made feast there. But was not landowner there. Rokona came there because his pigs damages his brother inlaws garden and intend to kill him. So he ran away, thats why he came to KOITSIGI. Tugagulia was killed instead of him. Because he told him to run away to save his life. Tugagulia was killed at PITE. TUQARATSI, Solo, and Sipiu claimed by BENTATAO that they were his ancestors was not true, they were not his tribe, they were Kidipale and Valekuivi lines. I only wanted to talk with KOITSIGI line and not the other lines. I knew only that from Kakauga to Nanodaula belongs to me and the other parts I can't talk so much about for they belongs to Kakau lines.

I knew that KAKAUGA are its area as Kolomatoba at the right side and KUSAGE on the left side between the two named Rivers belongs to Lakuili line. Philivakana, Siki TAGOGANA and Paul Tabula told me this story. The post on the ground was Lakuili line. Called the GOROTAVULI and the KAKAU line that stayed with them was KAKAU VATUVULO. This two lines married each other at GOROTAVULI and came to KAKAUGA and out the bushes there. VANGARUGU of Lakuili line out the bushes there. When Vangarugu died GADOKEOA and Tuaniboli came up and a spirit appeared to them in their quarter, called Pelopelo. When they died Pilipili and Tuqaragi. Pipili married KAVEKESA my ancestors. When they died they throw then at Vungatabu at Kakauga with or in the Tamby place of Pelopelo and Tavulikenge. When they died Gese came up and when he died, Vou and Kua Pelugila and Sasala were spirit for hunting and fishing Gese put a tabu place of the eagle bird there too just beside the other Tambu places. That's why I said the Kakauga and its area belongs to Lakuili lines. Rokona did not came to Kakauga, he only stayed at KOITSIGI. Suagoto and Sao were there before he came there. He came at the time where Piri and Tola were head, he stayed under Piri and when Piri died Rokona stayed there and made some big feast.
Feast were not done to do with owning the land but just to share to people what he has got, foods and pigs only. Rokona never came and work at Kakauga, Turakaea lived there follow his father only. That's why he stayed at Lakauga. Turakaea's ancestors married the Lakuili Qorotavuli starting from the beginning. Sale and Kua usually collect the ngalinuts trees there, they were Eliel Tagotada's relatives. Strake and Tobainuli were Kakau line, they started at Lumabogo and came to Inakave and Lusuruka, they did not come and stay at Kakpuga, one of them died there and the other died same where we of Kakau line have no right to say anything about Kakauga. No customary payment or other ways of owning land by custom.
