Dear Editor,
Iin addition to what Abu Bakr wrote about Banwaree bearing his chafe, I spoke to the son of an indentured immigrant who is over eighty and he informed me that Banwaree was one of the first immigrants from India and lived in what is now Albouystown.

Mr Banwaree Lall was a three Card player and Trickster, probably the first in Guyana.
As I understand it when someone got wise to his tricks and moved on he would  tell his associates ‘one pakoo escape plenty mo deh’.

When things were real bad and nothing was coming and his associates wailed how things were hard he would advise: You must be like Banwaree and bear you chafe.
Yours faithfully,
WP George
