April 21st. - To Chinglong, which seemed very nervous and apprehensive of us, and not unnaturally, as the last visit, in 1913, was punitive. All the heads in these villages from Angfang on were hidden before we arrived, for fear we should burn them, as was done with those of Wakching and Wanching, when they were first administered, - a wicked sin. |

The drum-logs here had naturalistic buffalo heads again, and the morungs had erect stones in front of them. The men are normally naked except for their long cane belts, the continuous cane strip wound round and round in many coils. [SKETCH |
