At first the woodcutter sent up a supply of first-rate bread every two days, the loaves weighing seven pounds a piece ; and on one occasion, a quantity of cooked macaroni in a sieve, as well as a boiled fowl for Lorenzo, who still suffered from fever. He did not fancy it ; I offered to cut it up for the whole party. I began in the usual way, but this was far too slow for the savages, who took it in one hand, and then tore off the limbs with the other, and it was divided into eleven shares.
