w RI C.I COLLNER -ER C. S.e

calculations, he finds that they refer exclusively to the departed. He is pitied for having died. When an hour has been spent in this way the family retire from the room leaving on watch some relative or friend who is not member of the household.
 Proclamation.
 The retirement of the family is the signal for the proclamation of death, which is done by one of the male ser wants or retainers. This man climbs to the roof of the house, and, stand ing. upon it, imm ediately over the spot where the man died, waves the dead mans shirt three times towards the north. This is not a garment that has been worn by the departed. It is never made of imported goods or of silk. It was probably made years be- fore and kept especially for this pur- pose. The reason for the shaking it is something personally associated with the dead man, it forms kind of authority or credentfaI to the one who is announcing his death. The reason for shaking it towards the north is because the shades fall on that side. With the first shake in stentorian tones the dead mans name is proclaimed, with the second shake is mentioned the name of the highest rank he ever attained, and with the third his death is announced.
 Though this may take but a few minutes to perform, as soon as it is done the family again assemble and vail for ten or fifteen minutes, after which the body is tender1y lifted from the floor and placed on 8 plank that for many years past has been kept in readiness. This plank is so placed that the head shall be slightly higher than the feet and directed towards the south, resting upon stools; that have been made for the purpose, for it is supposed that this position will fa- cdItate the exit of the spirit, which at this point of the rites is thought to go into the Spirit Box.
