She had a pretty bead necklace, and a bead sash encircled her waist.

Justice appears upon the whole to be pretty fairly administered among the Makololo.

A headman took some beads and a blanket from one of his men who had been with us; the matter was brought before the chief, and he immediately ordered the goods to be restored, and decreed, moreover, that no headman should take the property of the men who had returned.
