How an owl (by its conduct) made |a-kkumm think that danger must be at hand and how she was sought for by a lion, which spoke to her in a man's voice

Lucy Lloyd |xam notebooks

Dia!kwain (David Hoesar) (V)

Dia!kwain's elder sister, |a-kkumm, comes upon an owl as she journeys from !kau-|nunu (Kenhardt) at sunset, and it behaves as if it is going to snatch her. When it leaves she is afraid because her mother had told her that when an owl leaves at sunset a beast of prey is near.

1) p.4868v: this story was told to Dia!kwain by |a-kkumm when he was little; about Kenhardt (or !kau-|nunu) at the time before the white people built their houses there, 2) pp.4869v-4879v: see
