Principal Events during the Reign of each King. 
neighbourhood and on the islands of the 
Tsad (probably identical with the Yedina 
or, as they are generally named, Budduma), 
and whose hatred against their oppressors 
was so intense that they refused fellowship 
at meals to those among themselves who had 
not killed a Mohammedan. They prided 
themselves chiefly on their white spears. 
This is exactly in harmony with the custom 
of the Budduma. Edris, in order to subdue 
them, made use of the Kataku, or Kotoko*, 
whom he ordered to harass the enemy by 
continual incursions with their boats, ex- 
actly in the same manner as the sheikh of 
Bdrnu at the present day, when he wants 
to trouble the Budduma, orders the people 
of Mafate to make an inroad against them. 
The Tetala retreated into the swampy 
grounds of the Tsad.f Edris then beat 
the governor of Mafate J, who came to 
attack him with a number of boats, de- 
stroyed the town of Kansa-Kusku, as he 
had also destroyed Saya§ and Taghalagha, 
belonging to the tribe of the Ghama, or 
Ngama, and other places, and built several 
fortified encampments, or "sansanne," in 
the neighbourhood. The Makari || , who 
seem to be identical with the Kotoko, ap- 
pear to have offered him friendship or sub- 
mission, with the exception of the people 
of Kusuri % whose governor he succeeded 
in taking prisoner, and of Sabalghutu. He 
then proceeded once more against Man- 
dara, and vanquished that rebellious and 
stubborn nation. 
We shall now notice, but briefly, the expe- 
ditions of Edris to Kanem, which likewise 
fall within the first twelve years of his 
Place where he 
died .3

§ A town of the same name on the Tsad is mentioned, together with Ktfri, by Denham, i. p. 192. 
Makari and K6tok6 are but different names of the same country, just as A'fno and Hausa, Makari 
being the name used by the Kanuri
