     [They have no number higher than a thousand really - they have not that, but, they say 10 times 100. The natives have no need, nor use for such high numbers, as thousands, millions or Billions. All their counting can be effected by tens, and seldom rises higher than one hundred. They use addition, subtraction, division and multiplication, tho they do so, without knowing they are rules. Some I have known only to count by the use of tens - and they say two tens, or 5 tens.]
