a li tie water or milk.
"The chief feeling that my appear
ance inspired i could easily perceive
to be distrust. for they were firmly per-
, ' Iullied that the whiteness of the skin
' is the effect of disease and a sign of
, wedkbes's, and there is not the least
doubt that the white man is looked
uponby them as being greatly interior
to themselves; On market days i of-
