The Speech of Monkeys
·
R. L. Garner
83
Immediately
after
Jim's
death,
however,
when
I
would
visit
the
Garden,
she
would
always
jump
on
the
perch
and
take
the
same
position
that
Jim
had
occupied
whenever
I
would
feed
him.
During
his
lifetime,
she
always
kept
her
distance
and
never
would
take
anything
out
of
my
hand,
because
she
was
afraid
of
him;
but
as
soon
as
he
was
out
of
the
way
she
assumed
his
place,
and
would
utter
the
same
sound
that
he
had
uttered
at
my
approach.
She
evidently
was
aware
of
the
fact
that
Jim
and
I
were
friends,
that
I
always
gave
him
something
good
to
eat
at
that
particular
place
in
the
cage,
and
that
he
always
sat
in
a
certain
position
when
I
gave
it
to
him.
I
do
not
regard
this
species
as
very
intelligent,
nor
their
language
as
being
of
a
high
type;
but
they
have
a
very
human-like
face,
almost
without
hair,
and
very
large
and
expressive
eyes.
They
abound
in
West
Africa,
and
have
been
colonised
with
success
in
the
island
of
Mauritius;
they
are
not
very
common
in
captivity,
but
much
more
so
than
some
other
species
of
less
interest.
