Description:		This text is the one omitted from the collection English translations of the Becker texts (walman097). We (Matthew Dryer and Lea Brown) have been asked by our principal walman consultant Dismas Potul, representing the council and elders of Lemieng, not to make this text available for public inspection. The elders claim that the story translated in Becker 7 is wrong historically, and since it involves ownership of land which the Walman claim is theirs, they would prefer that the story not be available until an agreement is reached between them and the other claimants to the land, who, we believe, are either the descendents of the people of Tumleo Island or the people who lived on the coast in the area that the Prou people are now living in.
		Dismas was born just after WWII. He was educated to high school level and became a teacher, and eventually a school principal.
