The native market was crowded with humans and swarming with flies. Dirty Negroes, men and women, squatted around little heaps of millet, dried fish, peanuts and other native viands, while miscellaneous bottles holding mysterious mixtures were displayed for sale. The hut-wives were wending their way among these stall-keepers, arguing and making as much fuss over a penny’s worth of dried shark as a civilized woman would do over her Christmas turkey.
