- Description
- The old woman to whom the hut belonged, in which this story was recorded, was smoking her hubble-hubble pipe just behind the children. Her old husband sat beside her, over the fire, smoking his pipe which was made of a hollow cane sem bowl with the base shaped like an animal. This story contains a common theme found in many other places-that is wrong for an elderly man to marry out of his age group and covet younger women. Story with songs.
