The Speech of Monkeys
·
R. L. Garner
31
He
was
quite
fond
of
the
head-keeper
and
also
of
the
director,
but
he
entertained
a
great
dislike
for
one
of
the
assistant-keepers,
and
he
has
very
often
told
me
some
very
bad
things
about
that
man,
but
I
could
not
understand
them.
I
shall
long
remember
how
this
dear
little
monk
would
cuddle
up
under
my
chin,
and
try
so
hard
to
make
me
understand
some
sad
story
which
seemed
to
be
the
burden
of
his
life.
He
readily
understood
the
sounds
of
his
own
speech
which
I
repeated
to
him,
and
I
have
made
some
of
the
best
records
of
his
voice
that
I
have
ever
succeeded
in
making
of
any
monkey,
some
of
which
I
have
preserved
up
to
this
time.
They
present
a
wide
range
of
sounds,
and
I
have
studied
them
with
special
care
and
pleasure
because
I
knew
that
they
were
addressed
to
me
in
person;
and
being
aware
that
the
little
creature
was
uttering
these
sounds
to
me
with
the
hope
that
I
would
understand
them,
I
was
more
anxious
to
learn
just
what
he
really
said
to
me
in
this
record
than
if
it
had
contained
only
some
casual
remark
not
addressed
to
me.
This
little
Simian
was
born
in
the
Amazon
Valley
in
Brazil,
and
was
named
for
the
late
Emperor.
