When the surveyor plotted out Agnes' piece of land, two sisal plants were placed at the corners.
Then, the first step in making a straight line is to line up people from one sisal plant to another.
Pope, in the red shirt, is observing the fascinating process. |
 |
Albert, the area sub-chief (holding the sisal plant) supervises the marking of the boundary.
Sisal plants are a common way to mark boundaries until a fence can be put up. |
 |
| Morris also came to observe, as the boundary being marked divides his remaining one-acre piece from Agnes' two acres. |
This video shakes a lot, but at least it'll give you a better picture of how the boundary was marked.

 |
| I brought a small solar panel and Pope mounted it on the roof. They now have two small lights in their sitting room! |
 |
| Agnes will also be able to charge her phone with the solar power |
