Summary: Young Zemi Naga woman carrying her baby in a sling. She wears a dark coloured, loosely tied turban, and is standing in front of a house. [N.B. It was here that Mills heard what sounded like heavy artillery being fired towards the south. No one seemed to know the explanation. Ursula Graham-Bower later reported hearing a similar sound from Laisong, appearing to come from the Silchar area. The phenomenon is described in "Enigmas" by R.T. Gould, published in 1929].
