Comment:
Original. Researchers Please note: Barrett's notes on this recording are contained in a 5 page transcript (see accession file #400). Comments in the 14 catalogue seem to have been drawn from this document, which contains more information than provided here. "Tcemaho means "call". This is an exhortation to the people to bring enough food for the dance" (note from 14-catalogue).
