SEGREGATION OF HUMAN TYPES 29 



there is a definite correlation of eye and hair colour 

 and complexion between the males of one genera- 

 tion and the females of the next. I had no chance 

 of adding the father to the group, since he was in the 

 Customs Service, and never came home till 8 p.m. 

 Four photographs were made of the gipsy mother 

 with her three children, of which one is reproduced 

 in Illustration No. 2. 



The guide related a curious form of marriage. It 

 is the only form prevailing amongst the Granada 

 gipsies. When a young man falls in love with a girl 

 he elopes with her, and carries her of! into the hills. 

 In seven or eight days he returns, and obtains her 

 parent's consent. There is no other ceremony. When 

 children are born, however, they are baptised. 



In a drive through the gipsy quarter outside 

 Seville, in a long street of wretched houses, were seen 

 at least seven or eight Negro-type gipsies, idling 

 among the lounging population of these very dirty 

 dwellings. The Seville guide confirmed the informa- 

 tion of the Granada guide, that the gipsies and 

 Spaniards never intermarry, but stated that Cubans 

 and gipsies have interbred, which one could see was 

 true. The Guadalquiver is a tidal river. Seville 

 being thus a virtual seaport, the Negro of Cuba has 

 left his traces here as in Malaga.
