OF stones at the foot, so that the
cocoanut may be broken by the
fall. When the natives see that a
crab is in tree they tie ruff Of
grass around the trunk. When the
crab comes down again he is upset by
the grass and falls heavily to the
ground, where he lies stunned. He
is then killed with stone ak, his

roast the palm crab between two hot
stones and consider the flesh a great
delicacy.
