Pitched our tents under a tree to the East of the town. July 23d. Received a present from Serenummo, the King, of a fine bullock and two very large calabashes of sweet milk; he likewise sent the two asses which the people of Mareena had stolen. Took from our baggage the following articles, and went with Isaaco to the King. Bars. To the King, amber No. 2 30 Ditto.
As he was riding on, Park found Mr Scott lying by the side of the path, too sick to walk, and, shortly afterwards, Lieutenant Martyn lay down in the same state. Pushing on to the town of Mareena, Park sent back a party to bring in his sick companions. Hence they proceeded to Bangassi, six miles distant, the capital of the Chief Serenummo.
The town is large and populous, and is better fortified than even Maniakorro. We found Serenummo seated in a sort of shade, surrounded by only a few friends; orders having been given not to allow any person to enter it. He enquired if I was the white man who had formerly passed through the country, and what could induce me to come back again; with a number of such questions.
