ʻO ka hoʻōla kupanaha o George
i 1944, i ka manawa a ka ʻO ke Kaua Honua Tua i ka holo piha, ua 9 mahina wale nō ʻo Giorgio a ua maʻi enteritis. I kēlā manawa he paʻakikī inā ʻaʻole hiki ke loaʻa nā lāʻau e ola ai kēia maʻi. ʻO ka ʻoiaʻiʻo, nui nā keiki i loaʻa i ka maʻi like i make a ʻo Giorgio ma ke ala like, ʻoiai ʻaʻole ʻo ia i hānai iā ia iho no hoʻokahi pule i kēia manawa.
Ua noʻonoʻo ka makuahine i ka hilinaʻi Santa Rita, hoomaka e hai i ka Ka iwa a me ka hoohiki ana iaia ina e ola hou oia e lawe ia ia i Cascia no ka Huina mua.
Al lā ʻekolu o ka pule, moeuhane iho la oia, ua poho kana keiki, a ua waihoia hoʻoneʻe ʻole me ka manaʻo inā lele ʻo ia a make, e waiho wale ʻia nā kaikamahine ʻē aʻe. ʻIke koke ʻo ia i kahi ʻīlio ʻīlio ka mea nana i lalau aku ia Giorgio ma ka ai a lawe aku la ia ia a hiki i kahakai kahi e kali mai ai o Santa Rita, me ka aahu keokeo.
