All things being ready, we departed from Reed Mount, amid the regrets and tears of the people; some of whom accompanied usa day's journey, and remained until we set forward on the following morning.

We travelled through a barren and desolate land, in which we saw no living creature beside our own party, except when the quagga or zebra passed; reminding us, in their lonely course, of some impressive imagery of the Hebrew prophets. (j er. Ii. 24, and Hos. Viii.

Excerpt from A Narrative of the First Introduction of Christianity Amongst the Barolong Tribe of Bechuanas, South Africa: With a Brief Summary of the Subsequent History of the Wesleyan Missions to the Same People

After having been occupied as a Wesleyan-Methodist Missionary at Cape Town, with the Rev. B. Shaw, I joined the Rev. E. Edwards in Little Namacqualand. In the midst of our work, among the Hottentots at Khamies Berg and Reed Fountain, I received instructions from the Missionary Committee, in London, to attempt the formation of a Mission station in the Bechuana country. Immediately, without conferring "with flesh and blood," I commenced preparation for the arduous journey, in which I was to be accompanied by my wife and child, and maidservant.

We were told that; owing to long-continued drought, it would be impossible to cross the desert that lay between us and the Great River, until rain fell.
