To this we can only reply that we use the works of the best accessible authorities, men who do know the languages say, Dr. Codrington or Bishop Callaway, or Castren or Egede. Now it is not maintained that the myths, on the whole, are incorrectly translated.

The determination of the whites was as great as that of the Indians, and although every one was anxious, no one thought of withdrawing from the settlement. To Daniel Boone himself there came a little later an experience almost as thrilling as that which had befallen Mrs. Merrill. Among the new families was one named Callaway.

Butler: "On the 7th of July, 1776, the Indians took out of a canoe which was in the river, within sight of Boonesborough, Miss Betsey Callaway, her sister Frances, and a daughter of Daniel Boone. The last two were about thirteen or fourteen years of age, and the other grown.

'The King is above, Unkulunkulu is beneath. The King above punishes sin, striking the sinner by lightning. Nor do the Zulus know how they have sinned.
