Read the passage and answer the following questions:
The battle that immediately took place was frightful to behold. Most of the men used sticks of huge size and strange shapes, with which they beat each other's heads. As they wore almost no clothes, and had to bound leap and run in their terrible hand to hand fights, they looked more like devils than human beings. I felt my heart grow sick at the sight of their bloody battle; and would have liked to have turned away, but something seemed to hold me down and keep my eyes upon the fighting men. I observed that the attacking party was led by a most strange being, who, from his size and strangeness, I thought was a chief. His hair stood out so that it looked like a large hat. It was of a light yellow colour, which surprised me much, fur the man's body was as black as coal and I felt certain that the hair must have been coloured. He was painted from head to toe. With his yellow coloured hair, his huge black frame, his shining eyes and white teeth, he seemed the most terrible monster I ever saw. He was very terrible in the light and had already killed four men.
