are certainly a curious people and are
about three thousand years behind times:
! they haven't any railroads except OHs

the reason for all this is their religious
belief. They worship their ancestors and
think they must do everything their an
cestorS did, SO because their great. great
! grandfathers lived before the railroads
were invented, they think that they must
| do without them also. The streets are
very narrow and dirty, and you see very
