"Clerk to Basel"
Item Details
Title:
"Clerk to Basel"
Description
Little sale of European spirits in the Anum area, though from here and there armed caravans go to Bagida, where cheap liquor can be bought from the Germans. Mostly however palm wine is the ceremonial drink. It is even difficult to get spirits for medicinal use in Anum. In the interior the new teachers have caused some disappointment because they brought no spirits (this is presumably Crepe). In the interior in fact the trade in rubber is carried on against cloth and spirits.
