" Waitz-Gerland (VI. , 45...9) cite Wise as attesting that "in 1848 themissionaries gave up a girls' school, because it was impossible topreserve the virtue of their pupils, " and Steen Bill wrote that in1846 seventy per cent of all the crimes punished were of a lewdcharacter, and that on the whole island there was not a chaste girl ofeleven years of age.
