In the preface of The Rifles Another rule we followed was never kill an animal that we were not going to use for food or clothing. Barnabas PiryuaqWell, in those high latitudes we found such quantities of seals and walruses that we simply did not know what to do with them.There were thousands and thousands lying there; we walked among them and hit them on the head, and laughed heartily in the abundance which God had created. Jan Welzi 1933.
