Summary
Women with Water-Pots, Listening to the Music of the Marimba, Sansa, and Pan’s Pipes.
"A band of native musicians came to our camp one evening, on our own way down, and treated us with their wild and not unpleasant music on the Marimba, an instrument formed of bars of hard wood of varying breadth and thickness, laid on different-sized hollow calabashes, and tuned to give the notes; a few pieces of cloth pleased them, and they passed on."
