He was hospitably entertained and stayed there about six months;one of his wife's brothers was assigned to him as his particularcompanion and they used to go out hunting together. They used tigersfor hunting-dogs and their prey was men and women, whom the tigerskilled, while the _bonga_ took their flesh home and cooked it. Oneday when they were hunting the _bonga_ pointed out to the youngman a wood cutter in the jungle and told him to set the tiger on to"yonder peacock"; but he could not bring ...himself to commit murder;so he first shouted to attract the wood cutter's attention and thenlet the tiger loose; the wood cutter saw the animal coming and killedit with his axe as it sprang upon him. His _bonga_ father-in-law was so angry with him for having causedthe death of the tiger, that he made his daughter take her husbandback to the upper world again. In spite of all he had seen the young man did not give up his _bonga_wife and every two or three months she used to spirit him away underthe water: and now that man is a _jan guru_.
