MISSIONARY LIFE 
At 7:30 p. M. we reached Yeauyeamah, about 
twelve miles from Seneho. Here we found the 
king of Tyami and several of his chiefs. They 
were met together here to consult each other and 
devise the best means for catching one Karryha- 
hum, who had assisted in plundering some towne 
in British Sherhro. The English governor had 
demanded him of these chiefs, as he was hiding^ 
in their territory. These chiefs were also trying 
to get their people together in order that they 
might collect from them ten thousand bushels of 
rice— a fine put upon them by the governor.. 
When we landed the news spread that the govern- 
or had come again, and many of the people ran 
away. The chiefs said they could not let us go to 
Tyami, as we had already spoiled their work. 
In answer to a question if they knew anything 
about God, they said they had never seen him, 
as he had never been to their town, but if he would 
come there they would be glad. 
We must go back; and when this palaver is 
done they will send us word, and we may go to 
Tyami — but not now, because the people would 
become frightened at us. Joseph Gomer.
