We marched three hours southwards, then up the hills of the range which flanks all the lower part of the Lake.

The altitude of the town is about 800 feet above the Lake.

The population near the chief is large, and all the heights as far as the eye can reach are crowned with villages.

The second range lies a few miles off, and is covered with trees as well as the first, the nearest high mass is Mangoche.

The people live amidst plenty.
