The Corcans are very quick and
bright, and pick up foreign languages
with surprising rapidity. They are sus-
picious and cunning, and never trust
one another or foreigners. Among
them women live secluded life and
are kept in the background.
The Corcans are usually regarded as
a handsome race, for their physique is
good, though the average height is but
little over five feet-yet the men are
very strong. The hands of both men
and women are, without exception,
small, white and eXquisitcly formed,
ana the tapcring fingers are carefully
attended to.
