Text Appearing Before Image:
cially in the long grass, is nochilds play. The chief Amet, Sultan Tamburas son, promisedfaithfully to supply me with new bearers and pro-visions. When, however, after waiting two days,I repaired to his village, I found the noble princealone with his wives, all the men having taken them-selves off. I was led astray by a guide whom I forcedinto my service, and after punishing him brutally,I was obliged to proceed with the same Guberebearers. Naturally they were not enthusiastic abouttheir work, and were always on the look-out for anopportunity to decamp. I rested for a day at Boki, and sent on most of mymen with their loads to Tambura. The few whoremained behind with me seized the occasion to runaway.

Vain hope! The foolish fellows
