There are many different tribes
in the mountains here and some Of
them are cannibals. None Of
them in the mountains wear clothes.
Everything grows here fine-oorn,
potatoes, rice, sugar cane and all
kinds Of fruit and vegetables. The
natives know nothing of bread,
except rice cakes. They make
sugar, which is good and plentiful.
but rather dark. There are
thousands of dollar. worth of ma
hogony, rose wood and ebony
here. Some houses are built Of
them and all the furniture is made
of mahogony. Bamboo is tho
most useful wood in the island, as
it can be used like wire for splic-
ing, for making houses, baskets,
water buckets, drinking cups,
sleds, &c. They know nothing of
wagons. Their horses are very
small and are used only for riding.
The cariboo or water OK is the
beast of burden and looks like
buffalo but they can't travel far
without water.
There is plenty Of gold in the
mountains, but it cannot be woi k
ed. They war so much first one
enemy and then another. They
have no stoves in this country.
They cook on camp fire in large
eathern jars. They have no
knives or forks-all sit in a circle
around the rice pot and eat with
their hands. OF course there is a
higher class in town that are part
Spanish who are refined and are
very good people. ALI want to
learn English. When the war is
settled it will be good place to
teach school-one could make
great wages. We'll, Fred, / will
