Dugongs - Sea
Cows - Cast up at Rabaul - As all were dead, it is thought due to earth
tremor.
|
Dugongs, sea
cows, cast up on the beach at Matupil, Rabaul 12/9/28. Something like
40. Said to be young ones and the suggestion made that an earth tremor
at the time may have affected them so they were all dead and only young
ones.

Dear Addie,
Here you see
a small house sheltering a wooden horse. The occasion is the
preparation of a young man about to be married. This horse is only a
small part of the decorations. There were three very tall poles all
heavily decorated and festooned, then just at the rear a small house,
somewhat larger than the one shown, & then this one.
The young man
accompanied by a couple of friends remains in hiding for a couple of
weeks while the girl is being bought the feasts etc. are being carried
out. It is not practised generally but now and again you come across
it. I have not been able to ascertain what are the qualifications for
such ceremony. I had better send you birthday greetings as well as Xmas
& new year.
With love
from Lida, Raluana 3/2/20.

Dear Florrie.
In this
picture you see on the left next to the house the women who for a month
slept on the grave which is marked in front by the leaves, decorations
etc. which were stuck in as part of the ceremony. The woman under whose
chin I have put a cross is a daughter of the deceased. Her little one
is call Lida.
It was a
great ceremony and the officials had a big day. There were about 50
women & each one in payment for their services was given a very
large basket of food and about 2yds of shell money. The food consisted
of a large parcel of root[sic] vegetable cooked in
coconut milk, several dozen bananas, three or four shooting coconuts
for planting. About X00 coconuts were used in all the parcels taken
together. Xmas & New Year Greetings. Love
Lida. Raluana
