The relations were present, but as unconcerned as I was myself.
The graveyard was in the immediate vicinity of several murais.

The latter are small four-cornered plots of ground surrounded by stone walls three or four feet high, where the natives used to deposit their dead, which were left exposed upon wooden frames until the flesh fell from the bones.

These were then collected and buried in some lonely spot.
The same evening I witnessed a remarkable mode of catching fish.
Two boys waded out into the sea, one with a stick, and the other with a quantity of burning chips.

The one with the stick drove the fish between the rocks, and then hit them, the other lighting him in the meanwhile.

They were not very fortunate, however.
