CHAPTER VI
37/68

A Molongwana came to us from Mukamba and asserted most positively that all the water of Tanganyika flowed into the River Lusize, and then on to Ukerewe of Mteza; nothing could be more clear than his statements.
_25th November, 1871._--We came on about two hours to some villages on a high bank where Mukamba is living.

The chief, a young good-looking man like Mugala, came and welcomed us.

Our friend of yesterday now declared as positively as before that the water of Lusize flowed into Tanganyika, and not the way he said yesterday! I have not the smallest doubt but Tanganyika discharges somewhere, though we may be unable to find it.
Lusize goes to or comes from Luanda and Karagwe.

This is hopeful, but I suspend my judgment.

War rages between Mukamba and Wasmashanga or Uasmasane, a chief between this and Lusize: ten men were killed of Mukamba's people a few days ago.
