descendant of: cannibal; kings, is
now completing his niedical edu
cation in Chicago. .Cannibalism
ended in his tribe,, he sa, when
Bishop Selwyn converted his
grand father, bu t ' be. tells some
stories of it which have a dis
tinctly humorous flavor. For in
stance: V - . '. ;
It is said.that once a chief cap
tured a missionary whowas any
thing but a toothsome" morsel,
as he was old and looked as if
his flesh would be tough. The
missionary warned the chief that
he would not make a good dinner
and, pulling up his trousers, cut
a slice off the calf of his lesr
and offered it to the cheif. ;
The cheif tasted it, said (- he
didn't like it-and passed it . to a
a sub-chief. The sub tasted it,
make a wry face and passed it
on. The next man who took a
bite of it spat it out. The mis
sionary was released. After he
was gone it was discovered that
he wore a cork leg. Selected.
