APPENDIX. Zio 
confidence in our good will towards her; and she has great 
reason to rejoice in her present circumstances, as had she been 
left to her friends, they seeing no hope of her recovery, would 
have soon tired of having the painful object before them, and 
would have conveyed her to the bush, where she would have 
soon died of cold, or been devoured by the wolves. 
For some time past, Faku, who is now very strong, 
but very poor, has been seeking an opportunity to inter- 
fere with the petty Chiefs near Morley, who, from their 
mutual jealousies, and consequent disunion, are quite unable 
to cope with him in war. Pretending that Cetani (one of 
the Chiefs in Morley) had a dog named No-Faku, that is, 
Mother of Faku, and that the same Chief had assumed a great 
name, which Faku had appropriated to himself since the 
defeat of the Quabees, (the name of Jerilli, nearly synony- 
mous with our word conqueror, though not exactly so,) he 
sent out three commandoes, himself accompanying the last. 
Cetani and other Chiefs provided for the safety of the cattle 
by sending them to Morley, and then fled over the Umtata. 
Faku’s people killed six of Cetani’s men, and destroyed his 
corn, but were, as they said, “ ashamed” to go after the 
cattle to Morley, so they gained no plunder, the desire of 
which was the sole cause of the war. I was not aware of 
this business until Faku had teft his place, and was above a 
day’s journey towards the Umtata; for he took care to con- 
cert his measures secretly, wishing to take Cetani unawares. 
May 1st. Sunday.—This morning, before service hours, 
a man arrived from Faku, requesting a beast, and to 
come and see him, as he was unwell, adding, that ambas- 
sadors had arrived from Dingaan, the Zulu Chief, the pre- 
ceding evening ; I promised compliance on the morrow, as 
I saw that his object’ was to show the Zuius that he as well 
as Dingaan had Europeans living with him on friendly 
terms. T 2
