Hē Mei he Moʻoní ʻi Ketilani, ʻOhaiō
Hiki e ngaahi lea ko ʻení ʻi he palakipoé: ʻita, fakaʻitaʻi, meheka. Fakaafeʻi e kau akó ke fakakaukau ki ha ngaahi taimi ne nau aʻusia ai e ngaahi ongo ko ʻení.
Fakaʻaliʻali ange ʻa e meʻa ko ʻení pea fakaafeʻi ha tokotaha ako ke ne lau leʻo lahi: Kole ki he kau akó ke nau feinga ke ʻiloʻi ʻa e tūkunga ne aʻusia ai ʻe Tōmasi B. Maasi e ngaahi ongo ʻoku hiki ʻi he palakipoé.
Hili pē hono ui ʻa Tōmasi B. Maasi ke hoko ko ha ʻAposetolo ʻi he 1835, naʻe fokotuʻu ia ko e Palesiteni ʻo e Kōlomu ʻo e Kau ʻAposetolo ʻe Toko Hongofulu Mā Uá. Naʻe ʻilo ʻe Palesiteni Maasi ʻi he faʻahitaʻu failau ʻo e 1837, naʻe palani ha taha ʻo e Kau ʻAposetolo ʻe Toko Hongofulu Mā Uá, ko ʻEletā Paʻale P.

Naʻe tohi ʻa Palesiteni Maasi, ʻa ia naʻe ʻi Mīsuli, kia ʻEletā Palati mo e kau mēmipa kehe ʻo e Toko Hongofulu Mā Uá pea fakaafeʻi kinautolu ke nau fakataha ʻi Ketilani, ʻOhaiō, ʻi he ʻaho 24 ʻo Siulai 1837, kae lava ke fāitaha ʻenau ngaahi palani ki he ngāue fakafaifekaú. Ka neongo ia, ʻi ha māhina ʻe taha kimuʻa pea fai ʻa e fakataha ko iá, naʻe mavahe ha ongo mēmipa kehe ʻo e Toko Hongofulu Mā Uá, ko ʻEletā Hiipa C. Kimipolo mo ʻOasoni Haiti, ki ʻIngilani hili hono maʻu e uiuiʻi ke ngāue fakafaifekaú mei he Palōfita ko Siosefa Sāmitá. Naʻe mahino mai naʻe mamahi ʻa Palesiteni Maasi ʻi he ō e kau mēmipa ʻo e Toko Hongofulu Mā Uá ke malanga ʻaki ʻa e ongoongoleleí ʻi ʻIngilani taʻe te ne kau ai.

ʻI he tūkunga ko ʻení, ko e hā naʻe mei fai ʻe Palesiteni Maasi ke fakaʻehiʻehi ai mei he ngaahi ongo ko ia ʻoku hiki he palakipoé?

Ko e hā ha ngaahi fakatuʻutāmaki hono fakaʻatā ʻo e ongoʻi pehē ke puleʻi ʻetau ngaahi fakakaukaú mo e tōʻongá? (Fakamahinoʻi ki he kau akó ʻoku ʻikai ke lelei e ngaahi ongo ko iá ki he Laumālie Māʻoniʻoní pea ʻoku faʻa fakatupu ai ha ngaahi angahala ʻoku kovi ange.)
Kole ki ha tokotaha ako ke hoko atu hono lau e fakamatala ko ʻení:
Naʻe vahevahe ʻe Palesiteni Maasi kia Siosefa Sāmita ʻene hohaʻa ki he meʻá ni mo fekumi ki heʻene faleʻí. Ko e talí, naʻe fai ai ʻe he ʻEikí e fakahā ʻoku lekooti ʻi he Tokāteline mo e Ngaahi Fuakava 112.
ʻI he taimi ne foaki mai ai ʻe he ʻEikí e fakahā ko ʻení ʻi Siulai 1837, naʻe lolotonga fepaki e Siasí mo e māvahevahé, fekeʻikeʻí, mo e hē mei he moʻoní. Naʻe tataki ʻe he hīkisiá mo e mānumanú ʻa e kāingalotu ʻe niʻihi ʻo e Siasí ke nau fakaangaʻi ʻa e Palōfita ko Siosefa Sāmitá mo e fehuʻia hono mafaí. Naʻe feinga ha kāingalotu ʻe niʻihi ʻo e Siasí, kau ai ha niʻihi ʻo e Kōlomu ʻo e Kau ʻAposetolo ʻe Toko Hongofulu Mā Uá, ke toʻo ʻa Siosefa Sāmita mei he Palesiteni ʻo e Siasí.

Ko e hā e ngaahi ongo naʻá ne tataki e niʻihi ʻo e kāingalotu ʻo e Siasí ke liʻaki ʻenau ngaahi fakamoʻoni ki he moʻoní kae fakafepaki fakahāhā ki he Palōfita ko Siosefa Sāmitá?
Fakaafeʻi e kau akó ke lau ʻa e Tokāteline mo e Ngaahi Fuakava 112:10–12, mo kumi e naʻinaʻi ne fai ʻe he ʻEikí kia Palesiteni Maasi mo e kau mēmipa kehe ʻo e Kōlomu ʻo e Kau ʻAposetolo ʻe Toko Hongofulu Mā Uá, ʻe lava ʻo tokoni ke fakaʻehiʻehi ai e kāingalotu ʻo e Siasí mei hono fakaangaʻi honau kau takí.
Kole ki he kau akó ke lipooti e meʻa ne nau maʻú. Fehuʻi ange leva:

ʻE tokoni fēfē ʻa e faleʻi ʻi he ngaahi vēsí ni ke fakaʻehiʻehi ai e kāingalotu ʻo e Siasí mei hono fakaangaʻi e kau taki ʻo e Siasí? (ʻI hono vahevahe ʻe he kau akó ʻenau talí, tokoniʻi ke mahino kiate kinautolu e tefitoʻi moʻoni ko ʻení: Kapau ʻoku tau loto-fakatōkilalo, ʻe tataki kitautolu ʻe he ʻEikí mo ʻomi e tali ki heʻetau ngaahi lotú. ʻOku finangalo e ʻEikí ke tau poupouʻi e kau taki ko ia ʻoku nau maʻu e ngaahi kī ke tokangaʻi e Siasí. Mahalo te ke fokotuʻu ange ke fakafekauʻaki ʻe he kau akó e veesi 15 mo e Tokāteline mo e Ngaahi Fuakava 84:35–38. Mahalo te ke loto ke fakamahinoʻi ko e faleʻi ko ia ki hono akonekina ʻo e kau mēmipa ʻo e Toko Hongofulu Mā Uá naʻe ʻoange ia ki he Palesiteni ʻo e Kōlomu ʻo e Toko Hongofulu Mā Uá pea ʻoku ʻikai fekauʻaki ia mo e kau mēmipa fakafoʻituitui ʻo e Siasí.)
ʻOange ki he tokotaha ako takitaha ha tatau ʻo e laʻipepa tufá ʻoku ʻimui ʻi he lēsoni ko ʻení. Fakakaukau ke vahevahe e kalasí ki ha fanga kiʻi kulupu iiki, pea kole ki he kulupu takitaha ke nau lau fakataha e vahe ʻoku ui ko e “Hē Mei he Moʻoní ʻi Ketilaní: Ko e Fie Maʻu ke Muimui Faivelenga ki he Kau Taki ʻo e Siasí.” Poupouʻi e kau akó ke aleaʻi mo ʻenau kulupú e ngaahi fehuʻi ʻoku ʻi he ngataʻanga ʻo e vahé.
Mahalo te ke fie fakaʻosi e lēsoni ko ʻení ʻaki hano fakaʻaliʻali mo aleaʻi e lea ko ʻeni ʻa Palesiteni Hiipa C. Kimipolo (1801-68) ʻo e Kau Palesitenisī ʻUluakí:
“Te u foaki atu ha kī naʻe faʻa foaki ʻe Siosefa Sāmita ʻi Nāvū. Naʻá ne pehē ko e ʻuluaki sitepu ʻo e heé ʻoku kamata ia ʻi he mole ʻa e falalá mei he kau taki ʻo e siasí mo e puleʻangá ni, pea ko e taimi pē ʻokú ke fakatokangaʻi ai ʻa e laumālie ko iá, te ke ʻiloʻi te ne tataki ʻe ia ʻa e tokotaha ʻokú ne maʻu iá ʻi he hala ki he hē mei he moʻoní” (Ngaahi Akonaki ʻa e Kau Palesiteni ʻo e Siasí: Siosefa Sāmita [2007], 366).
Ke fakamamafaʻi hono mahuʻinga ke muimui faivelenga ki he palōfitá mo e kau taki kehe ʻo e Siasí, lau e aʻusia ko ʻeni mei he moʻui ʻa Pilikihami ʻIongí (1801–77), naʻe hoko he taimi ko iá ko ha mēmipa ʻo e Kōlomu ʻo e Kau ʻAposetolo e Toko Hongofulu Mā Uá:
“Lolotonga e ʻi Ketilani ʻa Palesiteni Pilikihami ʻIongí naʻá ne fetaulaki ai mo ha niʻihi naʻa nau hē mei he moʻoní ʻa ia naʻa nau fonofono pē he loto temipalé ke angatuʻu ki he Palōfita ko Siosefa Sāmitá. Naʻá ne pehē, ‘Naʻa ku tuʻu ki ʻolunga ʻo fakahā kiate kinautolu ʻi ha founga mahino mo mālohi ko Siosefá ko e Palōfitá ia, pea naʻá ku ʻiloʻi ʻeni, pea neongo ai pē hono lahi haʻanau lea kovi mo lauʻikoviʻi ia, ka he ʻikai ke nau lava ʻe kinautolu ʻo fakaʻauha ʻa hono uiuiʻi ko e Palōfita ʻa e ʻOtuá, ka ko e meʻa pē te nau faí ko hono fakaʻauha ʻa e mafai naʻa nau maʻú, ʻo nau tuʻusi ʻa e afo ko ia naʻá ne haʻihaʻi kinautolu ki he Palōfitá mo e ʻOtuá, pea nau ʻalu hifo ai ki heli’” (Ngaahi Akonaki ʻa e Kau Palesiteni ʻo e Siasí: Pilikihami ʻIongi [1997], 95).

Fakafepaki ʻi he Fakatokelau ʻo Mīsulí
Fakakaukau ke tuku pē e kau akó ʻi ha fanga kiʻi kulupu iiki, pea fakaafeʻi e kulupu takitaha ke lau e konga ua ʻo e laʻipepa tufa ʻoku ui ko e “Vāvākovi ʻi he Fakatokelau ʻo Mīsulí: Ako ke Kātakiʻi Lelei e Fakafepakí.” Fakamatalaʻi ange ʻoku hā ʻi he vahe ko ʻení ha niʻihi ʻo e ngaahi ngāue ne tupu ai hono tuli ʻo e Kāingalotú mei he fakatokelau ʻo Mīsulí pea mo hono tuku pōpula ʻo e Palōfitá ʻi he Fale Fakapōpula Lipetií. Kole ki he kau akó ke aleaʻi mo ʻenau kulupú e ngaahi fehuʻi ʻoku ʻi he ngataʻanga ʻo e konga ko ʻení.
Hili e kakato hono lau ʻe he kau akó e laʻipepa tufá, fakamatalaʻi ange ʻoku ʻi he Tokāteline mo e Ngaahi Fuakava 121–23 ha ngaahi meʻa ne filifili mei he tohi ne fai ʻe he Palōfita ko Siosefa Sāmitá ki he Kāingalotú he ofi ke ngata hono tuku pōpula ia ʻi he Fale Fakapōpula Lipetí.

Ko e hā e ngaahi fehuʻi naʻá ke maʻú?
Fakaafeʻi ha tokotaha ako ke lau leʻolahi e Tokāteline mo e Ngaahi Fuakava 121:7–10, 16–17; 122:7–9. Kole ki he kalasí ke muimui pē mo fakakaukau ki he anga hono fakamālohia ʻe he ngaahi tali ʻa e ʻEikí ki he kole ʻa Siosefa Sāmitá ʻo lava ai ʻa Siosefa ʻo hokohoko atu ʻene matuʻuaki ʻa e fakafepaki hono ngaahi filí.

(Mahalo ʻe kau ʻi he ngaahi talí ʻa e meʻá ni: Kapau te tau lavaʻi lelei e fakafepaki ʻo e moʻui fakamatelié, ʻe tāpuekina kitautolu ʻe he ʻOtuá he taimí ni pea mo ʻitāniti.

Fakaʻaliʻali ʻa e fakamatala ko ʻeni naʻe fai ʻe ʻEletā Niila L. ʻEnitaseni ʻo e Kōlomu ʻo e Kau ʻAposetolo ʻe Toko Hongofulu Mā Uá, pea fakaafeʻi ha tokotaha ako ke lau leʻolahi ia:
