CHAPTER V

A FUNERAL ORGY

_Satu becomes chief--Preparations for the funeral feast--My box 24 is opened--I become a neck ornament--Bakula, my new owner, is smart, but superstitious--The mourners assemble and present their gifts--The toilet before eating--Drunkenness and quarrelling--Corpse is carried to the grave--A white man wants to steal the ivory trumpets--He is shaved and sent about his business_
