Strange Marital C6ttoms OF little Afrlos
M Colony on the Congo.
With the Rabinda the bride and
groom Immediately after marriage arc
locked in a hut which must never have
been occupied before, and are there
kept close prisoners for three months,
except that ut every midnight the Old
men OF the town take tho groom and
the old women tho bride and escort
them to the "fetich man." 10 whom
they appeal for children. During this
time, however, they are well supplied
with both food and drink. At the end
OF the three months n great feast Is
held, when the prisoners are released
and the hut whore they had been con-
fined is burned, aud thus their honey
moon is brought to an end.
The ceremony OF marriage among
these people is conducted by the differ
ent tribes in manner that is common
to them all.
When n native wants wife, il there
is none in his own town TO suit him, he
sends to some neighboring chief ask
ing II there is girl in his town of the
age desired. II tho answer is in the
affirmative, he then presents his case
to the old men Of his town, and after
''palavor," or talk, at which there is
the drinking OF much rum, they agree
that he may bring homo us u wife
woman from another town.
After securing this permission he,
with presents in his hands for the
Precipitation OF tho spirit powers, visits
the head "fetich man. and, after
listening 10 his many prayers, receives
CHARM. He is then ready to seek his
bride. ~.
In the meantime the women OF his
town-maids, wives and widows-hav-
ing been advised OF his intention and
being incensed by this sighting them
in selecting a stranger, are prepared,
as they are allowed by their laws to
do. to prevent his leaving until their
charms have been admitted and their
indignation allayed by many presents
The custom, despite every precaution
OF the man. often ends in disputes
which are settled only by an appeal to
the "fetich man" and "sussiwood."
However. having overcome the diff
ficulties OF his departure. he arrives at
and is received in his prospective
brides town by the old men of the
place and by them conducted to the
'palaver house." where there is more
talk and more rum. The presents he
has brought having been found ac-
ceptable, he is then allowed to know
the parents OF the girl he is seeking,
and from them learns the sum in
beads, rum, cloth, ETC., he has to pay
before he can secure her. This usual
ly represents in value about ten dol
lars. This matter having been
satisfactorily settled, he returns
to his town and forwards the
goods us agreed upon. At the
setting OF the sun on the day
appointed for the closing OF the con-
tract the bride, naked except for being
painted with different colored challis,
accompanied by her parents and
friends, arrives at the home OF the
groom. There they are received with
much rejoicing, gun-firing, drum-beat-
ing, dancing and feasting. This is
continued until both man and woman
are exhausted by their orgies, when
they are bundled into the hut to re-
main for the customary time. Cor. N.
