It would not be wise to build upon
the story of the coast natives that in
the interior of Papua there are men
with tails. Similar beliefs have been
held in many parts of the world and

Canterbury or Strood, having mocked
at St. Thomas riding upon a Hitle ass
and cut off its tall, were punished
with the curse that thenceforth all
their boys should be born with tails.
