"You'll be brother Jarge's girl! Lor, to think o' little Jarge having a girl!" He chuckled hoarsely to himself, and the long, stringy sinews of his throat jerked and quivered.

The Adoo, the Anno, and the Jimini kings have long ago made blood-brotherhood with our chiefs, therefore we are enabled to pass in peace by this route alone." Before darkness fell we disembarked at a small village on the left bank, the name of which I learnt was Tomboura, and after our evening meal were given a hut in which to spend the night.
He's got a bull pup o' mine that I gave him when I took the bounty. You've heard him speak of it, likely?" "Why, grandpa George has been dead this twenty year," said she, pouring out the tea. "Well, it was a bootiful pup aye, a well-bred un, by Jimini! I'm cold for lack o' my rations. Rum is good, and so is schnapps, but I'd as lief have tea as either."

Everywhere we passed, without opposition, and with expressions of good-will from the natives.
