The chief wife of Khlimba, the Haedman, takes her child, obviously suffering from whooping cough, to a lady witch doctor. After a short questioning the child is "therapized". The witch doctor scratches its skin and spreads "medicine" over it with a wisp of straw. Afterwards she performs two ritual dances with her assistant.
