This document contains eight pages of undated handwritten notes on unlined paper. The main portion begins on page two and is titled "Changes in Kin Unit Activity ('Normal' Social Change)," with "II b" at the head, dictated to James Spillius by Raymond Firth. Pages one and four are additional comments in an unknown hand. Note also that pages six and seven of this document are two versions of page four in the original, so that the second may be viewed without the overlay of comments. The entire document concerns changes in kin units, determined by family lineages, between Firth's first and second visits, and the factors influencing those changes.
