Alice: I don't know if the mourners used the "spirits" or not. All I've seen is Mr. So & So asking for reimbursements and there will be this list with some, but not all of the following included, with the exception of "Spirits"...that will always be on the list: caring for the people, digging grave, pine box, white linen, bam-bam or rum (spririts). Now I'm strarting to wonder if the people didn't use it to wash themselves with AFTER dealing with/prepping the dead?
