Description:Tpile We at Abeletti, 111/12/97. Cosmos (K:ââmga) put on a feast+tpile we for 2 boys who built his house. Abeletti singers. Name of Tpile we = m:ââna 'small bird species, like kingfisher, blue & white like Tada; not edible, but beautiful'. Sam = B-in-law of John Lamonga (WB) This tape starts with the counting and handing over of 700 Kina. Usually shell money, but Cosmos (English code-switching) wanted to avoid it. Still, even though he could have paid out of pocket, he had to borrow from MBside, Fside etc. The feast then took place (for limited numbers due to drought). Sam chanted 2 wii for me in Ephraim's house: enormously fast poems, making fun of people of other districts: Djarus making fun of Jinjos in Moresby (when Thomas Keleta, poet, was working there); and reverse Jinhos making fun of Djarus. Followed by beginning of Tpile We at c. 5.00 pm. Two troupes, the second came on c. 10.00 and took over from the young boys, but remaining lot = mixed. Shaved, oiled, etc. **TRS in \transcripts\cut_up\ UNGLOSSED; 99TRS Book8&9 Video obscured, crowd under house, and light background, but parts good, sound good**
