Krapf found a population of seventy thousand to ninety thousand souls, surrounded by aliens of the Haniitic and Nuba-F ulah groups, and he published a vocabulary at Tubingen, in 1850. Last, a missionary of the Church Missionary Society, the author of this grammatical treatise, found a large numl)er of the same tribe in U-S agara, near his place of residence, Mamboia, who had migrated southwards.
