down from my own observation, with Hamarruwa, the furthest 
point reached by Her Majesty's steamer " Pleiad "* in Sep- 
tember, 1854. 
1. Routes from Hamarruwa to Yola. 
(a.) Direct route ; very unsafe. 
1st day. Having crossed the Benuwe, encamp on the border 
of the mayo Badore. 
2nd. A pagan village of the Zena ; about four o'clock p.m. 
3rd. A village of Hamidu (not the son of A'dama) ; a long 
da} 7 's journey ; the whole country is mountainous. 
4th. Lima, a settlement of the Fulbe ; about noon. 
5th. Yola; in the morning. 
(Z>.) Another direct route, a little more northerly. 
1st day. The mayo Badore. 
2nd. Dutsi-n-maifula (the Capped Mountain), obviously a 
travelling name given by the Hausa people to a 
mountain with a peculiar cone ; compare the ex- 
pression <( shush el kind " (the Slave's Cap). Before 
noon. 
3rd. Bang, a settlement of pagans, on a mountain ; turn 
round its southern side. A long day's journey. 
4th. Passam ; in the forenoon. 
* 1 have already observed with what accuracy I have laid down 
Hamarruwa with regard to latitude, while the error of longitude 
is attributable to the false position of Kukawa, as established by 
Clapper ton. With regard to the name of the town, I observe that 
I formerly wrote Hamarrua ; and although for English readers it 
is certainly better to write it Hamarruwa, nevertheless I never 
heard it pronounced with a long u, but the accent was always laid 
upon the second syllable.
