RETROSPECTIVE CALCULATION. 
263 
Dr. Overweg and Yusuf calculated the number 
of people who were reported to be in pursuit of us 
from Tajetterat to the Marabouteen, at three hun- 
dred and sixty. The passage of the expedition from 
Tajetterat to Tintalous has cost the Government 
about one hundred and fifty pounds sterling, at the 
least. I cannot get over this. However, let us 
raise our hearts in thankfulness to Almighty Pro- 
vidence, who still watches over us, preserves our 
health, and saves us from destruction.
