- Description: This story was beautifully told. There was once a rich old man who had no wife. So he thought and thought, and then went down to the river, cut down a tree, took a piece of soft wood and made it into a woman. He gave it arms and legs, and a head. And it was a woman. Then he gave her dresses and said to her: "When you are spoken to, you must say you are the daughter of Mfulwe the stream." And she was a very beautiful woman. Now when the young men saw her, they said: "How can such an old man have such a beautiful young wife. We will take her away from him." So they took her away from him and took her her to their kraal. Now the old man had great many cattle and pigeons. And he told 2 of the pigeons to fly to the kraal and say what he told them to say. So they flew and they flew and went to the kraal and said to her: "Kamiyo, Kamiyo, give us your apron." So the people at the kraal said: "Oh, give them your apron, let them have it." So the pigeons flew back with it. Then the old man sent them back again, and they came to the kraal and sang: "Kamiyo, Kamiyo, give us your clothes." So the people at the kraal said: "Let them have your clothes and leave us in peace." So the pigeons took the clothes. But the old man sent them again, this time to take away her headdress. Then the people said: "Let them have your beads and your headcloth, it's the woman we want." The old man sent the pigeons back yet again, and this time they flew into the kraal and sang: Kamiyo, Kamiyo, give us your life. And so singing, they sat on her lap, picked out her brains and took her life. So the lovely Kamiyo crumbled away: first her arms and then her legs and then her head. And her body rolled down to the stream where she turned back into the tree again. Story.

- Description: Recorded in a Gcaleka hut. Most huts have one small window, about the size of a ship's porthole, but this had none. There was once a frog who swallowed a baby and took it down to the river.- It gave the baby to another frog, who in turn swallowed it. The second frog took the baby back to its village. It met some boys on the way to whom it explained what it was going to do. So it gave back the baby and the people gave it a cow. The next morning it went back and asked for another cow which the people gave. But when it asked for a third cow on the following morning the people grew hungry and killed it. The name of the headman at whose kraal we recorded was KRIKRI ZWELILLUNGILE HLOKOMILE. Although the story-teller sang a song during the course of the story, the others did not sing a refrain, which is commonly the African practice. A story.
