EGENDARY AND RADITIONAL AND SEISTORY
According to Place Names of Hawai`i, Pepe`ekeo was formerly referred to as
Pepe`e-ke-, literally meaning the food crushed, as by warriors in battle
1974:183). As mentioned earlier, Pepe`ekeo and Kahua Ahupua`a ar
South Hilo district of Hawai`i Island.
In Exalted Sits the Chief, Cordy explains that Hilo district too is a windward
district with 32 miles of shoreline. It also is focused on Maun
similarly exposed cliffs, rough seas, narrow reefs, rain-shroude
upper `hi`a-koa forests and deep gulches. But Hilo also includes the l
flatlands of Hilo Bay formed by Mauna Loa flows. These flatland
wide lower Wailoa River and the calm waters of the bay played a
history of Hilo district and the island (Cordy 2000: 22).
The South Hilo district, positioned on the windward side of Hawa
experiences heavy downpour in the winter months and is known for
landscape and productive agricultural fields. In Native Planters of Old Hawai`i, the
authors Handy and Handy describe Hilo as one of the rainiest inhabited
island of Hawaii (Handy et al. 1972: 361). The chant Hi`u o La

The bones of Hilo are broken

Ghostly the rain-scud of Hilo in heaven;
The cloud-forms of Pua-lani grow and thicken.

by Theophilus Metcalf and the first crop was harvested in 1859.
was the first factory in Hawaii to use the vacuum pan in 1863.In 1874, after Mr.
Metcalfs death, the plantation was purchased by Messrs. Afong and Achuck and
the name changed to Pepeekeo Sugar Company. By 1881 the crop was
estimated at 1800 tons and the factory was constructed of corrugated iron
buildings with machinery manufactured by Honolulu Iron Works.
In 1882, Mr. Akana became the plantation manager and Mr. C. Afon
company owner as well as the agent. 1886 saw a new mill from Hon
Works in place and in 1888, Mr. Wong Tuck became the new manager
Deacon and Mr. Alexander Young, manager of Honolulu Iron Works, purchased
Pepeekeo Sugar in 1889. The Company was incorporated on October
with Mr. Deacon as manager and H. Hackfeld & Co. as agents. T.H.

control from Mr. Young, who used the funds to build the Alexander Young Hotel
on Bishop Street in Honolulu.
By 1910 the annual yield was 8,000 tons processed by a 9-roller mill with a
capacity to grind 60 tons of cane per day. The warehouse could store 24,000
bags of sugar, which were loaded onto interisland steamers by steel cables from
the sea cliff. Plantation fields were connected by good dirt roa
harvested cane was delivered to the mill by railroad cars and 15
stationary flumes. There were 700 employees at Pepeekeo Sugar, all of whom
worked on the day labor system, there being no contract laborers
plantation. By 1914, homesteaders were using 625 acres to grow cane that was
processed at the company mill.
Manager James Webster had become noted for his farming methods;
initiated plowing under cane trash for fertilizer instead of burning it off. The
improvement in soil prompted HSPA to take up the method and expand it to
other plantations. Another innovation, made during mill improvements, was to
place the grinding machinery some 60 feet below the boiling hous

tons per acre in 15 years. Most of the cane of the plantation was Yellow
