Difficulties of all sorts beset them: the chief was obtaining porters; Musa, too, who pretended to be so friendly, did not keep faith with them; but, rather than be delayed, Speke paid the beads demanded, and once more set off. At length he obtained a kirangozi, or leader, by name Ungurue, which may be translated the Pig.
After this, on adjourning to his baraza, Ungurue the Pig, who had floored my march in Sorombo, and Makinga, our persecutor in Usui, came in to report that the Watuta had been fighting in Usui, and taken six bomas, upon which Rumanika asked me what I thought of it, and if I knew where the Watuta came from.
Lumeresi, of course, was greatly perplexed at this, and sought my advice, but could get nothing out of me, for I laughed in my sleeve, and told him such was the consequence of his having been too greedy. 11th to 15th. Masudi with his caravan arrived from Mchimeka Ungurue "the Pig," who had led me astray, was, by the way, his kirangozi or caravan-leader.
Baraka, for instance, had with him the daughter of Ungurue, chief of Phunze; Wadimoyo, a woman called Manamaka; Sangizo, his wife and sister; but Bombay had not got one, and mourned for a girl he had set his eyes on, unfortunately for himself letting Baraka into his confidence.
The Country and People of U-n-ya-muezi Kaze, the Capital Old Musa The Naked Wakidi The N'yanza, and the Question of the River Running in or out The Contest between Mohinna and "Short-legs" Famine The Arabs and Local Wars The Sultana of Unyambewa Ungurue "The Pig" Pillage. U-n-ya-muezi Country of Moon must have been one of the largest kingdoms in Africa.
I wished to push past him, as I might be subjected to such calls every day; but Ungurue, in the most piggish manner for he was related to Ruhe insisted that neither himself nor any of his children would advance one step farther with me unless I complied with their wish, which was a simple conformity with the laws of their country, and therefore absolute.
