Caption: Date: 1967-05-05 Location: Chiti, Lamjung Description: This man urged about 100 men on as they pulled a log bound for Dalal as he called out a rhythmic chant. His basic chant AMuhro aundai chha. Dalal ma pugechha. (The log is coming. It will reach Dalal) was modified with a play on words by substituting AMurdar (corpse) for AMuhro which could be interpreted with many meanings including "a fool." The log was used to make a cantilever bridge in Dalal. The picture was taken near Tilihar. Keywords: Jim Fields, Nepal Photo History Project, Peace Corp Photo History, bridge, community, event
