mo lie tbat Of an excited notltieal catherine t. 4 civ
ieoa conptrv Kine Fihia requested then, to be si-
lent ana TO listen 10 His ptne
lister and orator having before him specimens of two
kinds of dried fish, fish trap and piece of net,
menced by remarking that they glad to see me.
They did not understand the OF the white
no white man had ever been in the town before, and
they hoped would excuse them il they proceeded Ii
their own way. He then picked up The dried fish, the
trap and net and handed them to me, saying Bonny
and Calabar have ships to trade with but Okrka have
nothing but fish 1t is on fish We live, it is with FISH
we buy the oil we have to SELL and this has been
ever since okrika became country 1t was IN the
creeks | saw in coming that they caught their fish.
and Calabar men came into these creeks and stole
their fish out Of the nets and also robbed their
noes
Never before in Africa have seen such powerful
Hooking men as the Okrka, | could not but admire
their physical strength As they sat before me, chew
ing Lifts Of chopsticks to clean their ech and gazing
earnestly at me the thought would occasionally flash
across my mind Are these eannibals wondering how
a piece of roast consul would taste, and which Wo'ld
be most savorv, cold consul or hot ~
