He was a quiet good man, his disease began at Kampamba's.

New moon last night.
_29th, or 1st January, 1873._--I am wrong two days.
_29th December, 1872._--After the burial and planting four branches of Moringa at the corners of the grave we went on southwards 3-1/4 hours to a river, the Luongo, running strongly west and south to the Luapula, then after one hour crossed it, twelve yards wide and waist deep.

We met a man with four of his kindred stripping off bark to make bark-cloth: he gives me the above information about the Luongo.
_1st January, 1873.
