Chale, High View Road, Sidcup - Re: Lady Frazer's question about the Kikuyu sacrificing pigs, Mrs Paice's son [Arnold Paice?] is right, they do not, as they have none to sacrifice; congratulates him on the completion of the 'Fasti', will go look up Kikuyu fertility customs; could he influence the Government to subsidize a study of the North and South Kavirondo people: they are changing quickly and a wealth of valuable material will soon disappear.
