Nowland himself related the following to me. One of his slaves ran away, and came to the Homo Chitto river, where he found no means of crossing. Here he fell in with a white man who knew his master, being on a journey from that vicinity. He induced the slave to return to Baton Rouge, under the promise of giving him a pass, by which he might escape, but, in reality, to betray him to his master.
Never knew Louisiana to use a rifle, though. The dare-devil! I can hear him now, ridin' off a-laughin' and a-chortlin' "Back to Whisky Chitto; to Beau Regarde bayou; To my Louisiana Louisiana Lou. "Remember the feller's singin', Jim?" The few men in the place had turned startled eyes as Murphy whined the doggerel ballad nasally.
A man who runs about aimlessly to and fro, under the influence of excitement, is compared to a maimaimushi. And there are some beautiful snails, with yellow stripes on their shells. Japanese children have a charm-song which is supposed to have power to make the snail put out its horns: Daidaimushi, daidaimushi, tsuno chitto dashare! Ame haze fuku kara tsuno chitto dashare!
