Extract

I propose making a few brief observations on the relations in which we stand to the aborigines of the Andaman Islands, their place in the economy of this convict settlement, and their more noticeable habits and customs. In the consideration of the latter, I shall only state such information as I have obtained myself from conversation with, and personal observation on the manners of the natives. Detailed monographs on their ethnology, &c., have been written already by several observers, and are to be found in the “Transactions of the Anthropological Society,” &c.
