Sir Montagu. And a rock may not. Carlton. The rock relies on its grandeur. Sir Montagu. StiVl, it's aiwavs barren. HIS EXCELLEXCY THE GOVERXOR 35 Carltox. Eh? . Sir Montagu. A mere metaphor. Carlton. Your only difficulty at present, I imagine, is the reorganisation of the nati\e marriage laws ? Sir Montagu, That is so. You see, when England annexed the Islands in the 'twenties, in the interests of Christi- anit}s and with great slaughter, each native was allowed three wives, rajahs thirty — if ...they could get them. With the advent of Bishop Garraway in '71, these numbers were reduced to natives two wives each, rajahs twelve. The Bishop had evan- gelistic tendencies. But the Bill about to be brought into operation places the natives' marriage laws on the same footing as our own. Carlton. And this has given rise to considerable feeling ? Sir Montagu. Yes. 36 HIS EXCELLEXCY THE GOVERNOR Carlton. No danger of a rising, I trust ? Sir Montagu. Oh, I think not. Carlton. The former state of affairs was certainly highly immoral.
