Within a week after the visit of
Mr.. Lovejoy, Samson and Harry built
a hollow haystack about halfway fro'o
the house to the barn. The stack had
comfortable room inside of 1t about
eight feet by seven and some six feet
In height. Its entrance was an open

screened by the pendant hay. But no

Soon after the new year of 1885
Samson and Harry moved The Kelsos
to Tazewell county. Mr.. Kelso had
received an appointment as land agent
and was to be stationed at the little
settlement of Hopeuale near the home
Of John Peasley.
Late In the afternoon Harry and
Samson left the Kelsos and their eff

little village of Hopedale. The men
had no sooner begun to unload than
its inhabitants came to welcome the

WELCOME TO HEAD HUNTERS
Ceremony Follows Return Of victors
With Their Grewsome Trophies
Women In Welcoming Party.

Prof. Carl Lumholtz, In his book,
Through Central Borneo," gives an
intimate description of head hunting
among the tribes there He gives a
description of a raid by ten Bukats
upon a small party of Saputans who
were on a hunt. The slayers hurried
of with three heads.
The last night out the head hunters
always sleep near their own kapong.
and early next morning, while It is
still dark, they come singing. The peo-
pie of the kampong awake, array them
selves In their best finery and 60 to
meet them, the women wearing their
newest skirts and bringing pieces of
cloth to present to the cOnQuerors. A
head Is carried suspended from the
conqueror's neck until 1t Is taken from
him by a woman, who gives him a
piece Of cloth to wear instead. pos
slbly as a badge Of herolsm. 1t makes
no difference whether this service Is
performed by his wife, by another
woman or by another mans wife.
Heads are then hung from a beam In
the house Of the kapala, and the cloths
are returned 10 the women. The head
hunters must take their food apart
from their associates, and In the pres.
ence OF the heads they have taken.
At meals a pinch Of rice is put into
hole made with spear point In the
top of the skull, and the head is ad.
dressed in certain words: Eat this
rice. Don't be angry. Take care OF
me. Make this body of mine well.
During the period Of restrictions I'm
posed upon the hunters the heads re
main In the same place, sharing the
meals In this manner. After twelve
days no more food Is offered the
heads.
