The native folk live in villages surrounded by grassy Hats and ridges covered with well drained gardens which are planted with polatoes, yams and bananas. From their highland domains where they have lived in security for thousands of years, they are now apprehen- sively watching the Irresistible advance of the white man and his great bird.
