Animals, as buffaloes and elephants, are plentiful, but wild.

Rivulets numerous, and running now as briskly as brooks do after much rain in England.

All on the south-western side of Kalongosi are subjects of Casembe, that is Balunda, or Imbozhwa.
It was gratifying to see the Banyamwezi carrying their sick in cots slung between two men: in the course of time they tired of this, and one man, who was carried several days, remained with Chuma.

We crossed the Luongo far above where we first became acquainted with it, and near its source in Urungu or Usungu Hills, then the Lobubu, a goodly stream thirty yards broad and rapid with fine falls above our ford, which goes into Kalongosi.
_6th October, 1868._--Cross the Papusi, and a mile beyond the Luena of forty yards and knee deep; here we were met by about 400 of Kabanda's men, as if they were come to dispute our passage at the ford: I went over; all were civil; but had we shown any weakness they would no doubt have taken advantage of it.
_7th October, 1868._--We came to the Kalongosi, flowing over five cataracts made by five islets in a place called Kabwerume.

Near the Mebamba a goodly rivulet joins it.
_12th October, 1868._--We came to the Kalongosi at the ford named Mosolo: by pacing I found it to be 240 yards broad, and thigh deep at the end of the dry season, it ran so strongly that it was with difficulty I could keep my feet.
