Pongithung complained rather bitterly that I did not hear any of their cases, as I never got through those left over from the day before. Pongithung showed me a stone erected by their predecessors in the land, said to have been Hatigurias. It is called Nangtso-oya, the village apparently having been called Nangtso. |
