Excerpt from The African Sketch-Book, Vol. 2 of 2: With Maps and Illustrations My fellow-passenger, like most young Londoners, was prone to chaff, and now began to make inquiries of Jolly Nose respecting his connubial relations. Jolly Nose told us with an air of honest pride that he pos sessed Six wives. Mr. Then delicately hinted that possibly in his absence they might receive the attentions of six gentlemen; on which Jolly Nose flew into a rage, and I was about to remind my young friend that these people had their feelings as well as ourselves, when I found that my sympathy was entirely misplaced. Jol'ly Nose was angry at its being supposed that he placed any trust in his wives' fidelity. 'you tink me fool!' he cried. Of course, when I come for Ship, I set my brother to watch 'em, and look 'em good.' Then as Jolly Nose reflected on the annoyance which this pre caution must have caused his ies, h'e chuckled to him self and laughed, and we all laughed, and his good humour was restored. AS the ship sailed away we saw fires on the beach, lighted by the women as a guide to their husbands in case they returned that night for canoes often lose the land in the dark, and thus new countries have been dis covered and colonised by savages.
