" (4:395. ) Similar behavior is common in natives who indulge in fraud in trading. Amundsen speaks of a man who grinned all over his face with glee, at having, as he thought, so suc cessfully tricked me. " And when discovered, he "could not help laughing at his failure. " (1. 2:56. ) A woman, "when she saw she was found out, ...burst out laughing heartily, all the rest joining in.
