To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
That night the debtor either pays or has his property confiscated.
The mysterj^ is used by the men to keep their authority over the women. If a dispute arises Mumbo Jumbo is sent for.
This is really a man of the society dressed in a long bark coat, and a straw head dress making him about eight feet tall. It makes weird noises as it comes out of the bush at night, for it only appears at that time. When the women hear it coming they run screaming away in fear. If, however, a woman has committed s...ome real offense, she is dragged out from her hid- ing place, tied to a post and whipped with the Mumbo's rod.
Both the pain and the terror are enough to keep her from offending again for a long time.
One of the chief implements of many of these societies is the "bull-roarer" which is sounded outside the village to an- noixnce the arrival of the members of the society. The sound is said to the voice of a god.
In one place the members of the society act as police at night. They have the right to arrest anyone found out after 9 o'clock at night.
