This fine is called pakul dendeJ by the natives. Should any one even touch the wife of another, he must make a large atonement for the offence. The Macassar traders informed me that they were always obliged to watch their people narrowly, to keep them from approaching too near the married women, as the least touch would render them liable to a fine; and unless this was paid, the Alfoers would not be satisfied.
