…tribe, because nothing is known of their habits. Even their appearance has not been satisfactorily described. It is said by some that no white man has ever seen one, though others say that one or two have done so. Even the folk of the villages on the confines of the jungle have no knowledge of them, yet they carry on with them a regular traffic. Certain places outside the village are marked out, usually by white stones, and here they deposit rice and other products of cultivation at nightfall.
