I gave him a cloth and arranged the Sungomaze beads, but the box and beads weigh 140 lbs., or two men's loads.

I visited Lewale.

Heard of Baker going to Unyoro Water, Lake Albert.

Lewale praises the road by Moeneyungo and Merere, and says he will give a guide, but he never went that way.
_10th June, 1872._--Othman, our guide from Ujiji hither, called to-day, and says positively that the way by Fipa is decidedly the shortest and easiest: there is plenty of game, and the people are all friendly.

He reports that Mirambo's headman, Merungwe, was assaulted and killed, and all his food, cattle, and grain used.
