To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Many things contribute to their roving habits, but first of all I have said is their great fear of death. They dread to see a dead person. Their sick, unless they have good and near friends, are often driven out of the village to die in loneliness in the forest. Those Bakalai have no burying-ground. After a man is dead the body is thrown anywhere in the forest, and no more attention is paid to it. The people of these tribes are very superstitious, and often after the death of a man several frie...ndless creat- ures are accused and condemned in a breath, and mur- dered in cold blood. Afterward the village is broken up, the people set up again after their wanderings, and fix upon some lonely spot for a new plantation and a new home. What a life this must be, to be all the while vainly fleeing from the dread face of death, as if such a thing were possible. What can stand still in the world? WARS BETWEEN VLLA GES. 1 9 1 Nothing; absolutely nothing; constant changes are taking place. These people are of a treacherous disposition, and are constantly quarrelling among their neighbors.
