“THE SOURCE OF THE NILE. 109 
It was believed very generally, by Amha Yafous coming in 
perfon, that a treaty between fome of the great men in 
both fides, begun at his inftance, would bring every man 
that could mount a horfe from as far fouth as Gingiro, to 
- over-run both the provinces of Begemder and Amhara, and 
either difplace the two governors, or at leaft force them to 
their duty; and it was owing to this, in all probability, that 
Gufho acted with fuch moderation as he did in the cam- 
paign that foon followed. —
