Krauss Annotation:
The land swap was made by his predecessor who thought the Lanai land was worthless for settlement, being eroded and blowing dust. So it was exchanged for more valuable lands in and around Honolulu. But Frear says he believes such country lands as Lanai often become valuable to settlement sooner than expected.
