- Description: A song congratulating the Chief Fundikira on his method of stopping thieving in the country. He made wide areas collectively responsible for finding the thief. Thieving had become so bad, both from houses and from standing crops, that it called for drastic treatment. It appears that in the end all persons who had in the past been convicted of theiving were collected together and warned by the chief that every time there was a burglary they would all have to come to his headquaters and account for themselves. The sonstant journeys to the chief which this entailed had its effect and the known thieves volunteered to end the crime wave. This they did effectively and thus Chief Fundikira proved the virtue of the saying "Set a thief to catch a thief." Topical song, with 3 conical drums, 2 played with sticks and 1 with hands.

- Description: "If I am late, my love, do note be worried. When I have raided the cattle I will bring them back with all speed. I will not even wait to drink as I cross the river." The great manly sport of the Masai has always been cattle raiding shortly before this recording was made several men of this Arusha district raided over 1000 head of Sukuma cattle from the west. There is more behind the idea of selling cattle to the butcher than one would guess at first sight. The Masai are loathe to sell or trade any of their own cattle for slaughter but trading stolen cattle to satisfy the constant demands of trade is another matter. Cattle raiding song.
