, drawn. Some Of the men wore the
Big Numbers costume. some that OF
the Small Numbers. The women wore
the usual Small Numbers dress of q
few leaves. A few men carried old
rows or clubs. but the majority were
unarmed. These people had no
houses or huts. They lived in the
banians. Sometimes they put a few
leaves over the protruding roots as
shelter from rain. Occasionally
they built against the great central
trunk of the tree a rough iean-to
OF sticks and leaves. I picked up
fragments Of their history, which
runs somewhat as follows:
Years ago, there were many moro
people on the island than there are
today. In the north and in tho south
there were great tribes, who were
fierce and warlike. They fell upon
the people who dwelt in the isthmus.
and destroyed their villages, killed
their men and carried off their WON.
en-. Finally the few that were left
became nomads, living in trees, and
depending for their food on Wild
fruits and nuts (for which they
climbed like genuine simians), the
roots OF trees and an occasional bit
Of fish. Their number was augmented
from time to time by refugees from
the Big Numbers tribes on the north
and from the Small Numbers on the
south They were unarmed. because
their best means of defense was
flight. They could not stand against
their warlike neighbors. but they
could elude them by climbing trees
and losing themselves in the dark,
impenetrable jungles.

they gave, we stumbled along.

\ We landed, but saw no signs of saw

the Jungle. I advanced slowly, so as
not to frighten them. holding out a
handful of tobacco and clay pipes.
