APPENDIX. 287 
9th.—Faku’s messenger having returned from Dingaan, 
brought me a short note from John Cane, informing me 
that he and all the other Englishmen were safe, and that the 
Chief was friendly and willing for Messrs. Fynn to return. 
Sept. 9th.—We removed this day to the new place on the 
‘Umgazi, upon which we have erected a substantial dwell- 
ing-house, forty feet by twelve, and a school-room, thirty 
feet by twelve, both wattled buildings but unusually strong,

Mission been formed here, the flourishing Station on the 
Umtata (Morley) would have not been safe, and must. pro-
