Natives of Tutuila gather about 200 people on the seashore each with a cocoa palm branch. They swim out form a semicircle then drive fish ashore by inching toward the shore. Fishes are killed with sticks, cooked over hot coals, and served with bananas and coconut milk. Observers note white powdered hair on the village men and red powdered warrior slicks.
