Eneyudah, which we reached shortly after noon, having 
breakfasted at Wobra Cobra, where we heard from 
a trustworthy settler of the benefit to be derived 
from the application of ordinary kerosine oil both

took boat again for the Falls, about an hour's pull from 
the Mission. As we drew near, the river became covered
