  1. Long ago there was an eagles nest in the cliff of Kinala. One day four or five went went to knock the eagles nest. They brought a rope and a basket and they tied the rope to the basket and one of the men went into the basket and they let him down and he killed the young ones and all the people were rejoicing. The mans name was McMahon.
