" It was always a bad place, Atuona," com- mented Mr. Stewart, in his homely Fifeshire voice. In spite of this dire introduction, he accepted the captain's offer, was landed at Taahauku with three Chinamen, and proceeded to clear the jungle. War was pursued at that time, almost without interval, between the men of Atuona and the men of Haamau; and one day, from the opposite sides of the valley, battle — or I should rather say the noise of battle — raged all the afternoon : the shots and insults... of the opposing clans passing from hill to hill over the heads of Mr. Stewart and his Chinamen. There was no genuine fighting; it 126 IN THE SOUTH SEAS was like a bicker of school-boys, only some fool had given the children guns. One man died of his exertions in running, the only casualty. With night the shots and insults ceased; the men of Haamau withdrew; and victory, on some occult principle, was scored to Moipu. Perhaps, in con- sequence, there came a day when Moipu made a feast, and a party from Haamau came under safe- conduct to eat of it.
