Description:Friday August 12, 2005. Kpaakpaa for David Mgêmîwé. Food should be provided by sons and widow’s people (NB Milne Bay: in-laws have to kill pigs for dead person). Widow should provide mortuary payment – but no wife. Menepw:ee will be the heir because he looked after the old man for years: took him to Hospital, etc. Recovered a couple of times, but eventually succumbed to same sickness. Speakers included Kmatpi, Nicholas Menepw:ee, Luke ‘Nepa, brothers Nkada and Tââlââ, Mundi father of Daniel Nkélipi, John Weni, Pius and others. Pretty low key. Damian Daach:aa thwacked people symbolically. Apart from paying the gravediggers, 3 chîmo were given to those who helped the old man: Nicholas, Pascal’s sister, and? (first 12 seconds no sound). Continues into session r05_v19_s1.
Ongoing documentation project, 1995 onwards.
