Preaching Monkeys.


The author OF THE History OF Bra
I'll" tells OF a species Of monkey called
preachers" Every morning and
evening these monkeys assemble In
the woods. One takes higher posi-
lion than the rest and makes n signal
with his fore paw At this signal the
others sit around him and listen. When
they are all seated he begins to utter
a series Of sounds when he stops
these cries he makes another signal
with his paw, and the others cry out
until he makes third signal. upon
which they Income silent again. This
author Mr. Maregroye. asserts that he
was n witness to these preachings.
