and asked for help. This Avas 



readily given. Instead, however, 



of going to fight Kabarega, the 



army went into Busongola, 



fought with till' people there, 



and conquered the country. 



Kabarega's second attempt also 



failed. However, there was 



much dissatisfaction amongst 



Olimi's chiefs. Kalikula, a big 



chief, rebelled and fought against 



Inni, and conquered his army. 



Then Kabarega sent off" Mate- 



bere and Lusongoza with a great 



force, and when Olimi heard of 



it he fled to Bada. Then all his 



chiefs fought against him, and 



betrayed him into the hands of 



Matebere, who, having conquered 



the Avhole of Toro, returned to 



Kabarega with Olimi as his 



jirisoner, leaving Mukalusa, one 



of his under-generals, to guard 



the country. Finally, Kabarega 



sent Kikukule to take his place. 



All the princes then escaped to 



Ankole, and were kindly treated 



by the queen-mother (Xamasole), 



whose name Avas Kiboga. During this period the Baganda made many raids into 



Toro, a notable one being that led by the Mukwenda, Kiyega, who brought with 



him Kakende, and left him there to be the king. The Balusula were driven from 



Toro during the raid, and Kakende built his capital at Kisomolo. But he did 



not remain there long, for Kabarega, after two attempts, drove him from the 



country, and he returned to Uganda. Kasagama, who was then quite young and 



living in Ankole Avith the other refugees, also went into Uganda. After a few 



months Captain Lugard brought Kasagama back to Toro and made him king. 



Kasagama, Ibe king of Toro (of Unyoro race), gave the following 

 additional legends about the coming of Lukedi. his partly mythical ancestor 

 (the translation was sujjplied so n^.e by ]Mr. Fisher, C.3I.S.) : — 



. . . Wamala, king of Bunyoro, sent off a messenger, who went and stood on 

 the shores of the lake and called aloud to Isimbwa's son to come and take possession 

 of the country. Then came Lukedi himself to the lake shore, bringing with him a 

 goat and a fowl and a child, who was decked out with numerous beads on his 

 neck, arms, and legs. They put a crown of nine beads on his head, and a large band 

 of nine beads on either leg ; then they threw him into the lake as aii offering to the 

 gods. Lukedi then crossed the lake into the country of Kanyadwoli, and while 

 resting in the shade of a tree a man brought to him a pipe of tobacco to smoke, 

 which he did, and then knocked the ashes out on to the ground. Innnediately a 

 plant of tobacco sprang uj). He then proceeded towards AVamalas capital,
