# Page 40: Story Prose with Illustration This page contains story prose from a piece titled "Nuki-Hiva Head" by Captain Hains (visible in the caption). The illustration shows a woman in traditional Pacific Islander dress against a textured background, captioned as "one of those Spar-Buff Girls" referenced in Hains's south-sea island story. The accompanying text depicts a confrontation between characters named Bruch and Kavanagh, who are arguing about Maxwell's death. Kavanagh claims Maxwell died of fever and spoke against Bruch; Bruch counters that Kavanagh cremated Maxwell to destroy evidence. The dialogue grows increasingly hostile, culminating in a physical altercation.
