ABOKKO. 
273 
We stopped a short time off Adda-miigu, or Abela, 
the chief town belonging to our old friend, Abokko, 
who was so kind to Lander, on both occasions 
when he visited him. The first was when the brothers 
landed at his town in their adventurous voyage down 
the river in a canoe. They were then in a destitute 
condition, and received much disinterested hospitality 
from the old chief. On the second, Lander had an 
opportunity of rewarding him handsomely. We regretted 
to find on inquiry, that this magnificent old man 
had been dead some years. His family is however still 
in great power. One of his sons, Okien, succeeded 
him in the government of the town and territory of 
Adda-mugu ; another, Edina, is the Nufia, or “ Cap- 
tain of the Port;’’ while his brother, Anieh Abokko, 
is the Annajah, or Governor of Addakudda, and all the 
VOL. I.
