or rather mortgages himself He Dor

children.
Ovcry one in this way first belongs
to some nobleman. being marked by q
tattoo. generally on the wrist to in-

In addition to this is the mortgage or
sale to some other master. perhaps
less than a nobleman.
Polygamy is universal. and one sees

of men, while his wife or wives and
slaves (femalc) are in the women'a
circle. All classes chew the betel nut.
