≠kasin (Klaas Katkop) (IV)

Summary

<i>The narrator's own hunting adventures. He kills a hyena and her two young ones, and shoots some springbok which had been startled by a lion. The presence of jackals indicates the lion's whereabouts. In a general hunt, the lion is killed, but not before it had broken the knee-bone of a man, who dies from loss of blood. After his burial, the Bushmen remove to another place, so that the children may not be thinking of their father, and wanting to cry. In the Katkop dialect, by ≠kasin (L IV.-2.3534-3585). </i>
