CHAPTER IX
50/55

The people brought in a leopard in great triumph.

Its mouth and all its claws were bound with grass and bands of bark, as if to make it quite safe, and its tail was curled round: drumming and lullilooing in plenty.
The chief Mosirwa, or Kasamane, paid us a visit, and is preparing a present of food.

One of his men was bitten by the leopard in the arm before he killed it.

Molilo or Morilo islet is the crossing-place of Banyamwezi when bound for Casembe's country, and is near to the Lofuko River, on the western shore of the Lake.

The Lake is about twelve or fifteen miles broad, at latitude 7 deg.
