From the Congo to the Niger and the Nile : an account of The German Central African expedition of 1910-1911 . 130. Mausoleum in the villaqe of 131. Burial place of a Dangandu chief near Kumilla. ON THE ROAD TO YUKADUMA 133 it takes a certain time for the plantations to bearfruit, and the natives do not see the object of theirappointed task and naturally dislike the troubleof fetching all their provisions from a distance for awhole year. On reaching the Bange River we left the dead forest zone behind, and after crossing with some diffi-culty the so-called Bange bridge, which consists merelyof a very slippery tree trunk, we encamped on the steepbank of the Bumba River close to a factory belongingto the South Cameroon Company. In the factory managers house, I found Mildbraed,whom I had heard botanising that same was surrounded by a mountain of botanical presses,full of forest flowers. He decided, however, to returnfor a few days to a most promising part of the Bangeforest, and this gave me time to visit the neighbouringvillage, Bange, the birthplace of my boy Musa,whose countrymen were the notorious Kunabembes.
