Excerpt from Among the Primitive Bakongo: A Record of Thirty Years' Close Intercourse With the Bakongo and Other Tribes of Equatorial Africa, With a Description of Their Habits, Customs Religious Beliefs The former work deals with a Riverine Tribe on the Upper Congo River; but this book aims at giving a re ection of the Lower Congo native's mind, a series of word photographs of big manner of life, his views regarding the various spirits by which he is surrounded and his method of controlling them; and also reminiscences of the Old King, who for thirty-two years reigned nominally over an extent of territory larger than Wales, but in reality only over a stretch of country the size of a small English county. The language spoken, kisi-kongo, at the capital, San Salvador, is known, with slight dialectical differences, throughout the whole of the nominal kingdom of Kongo, and in some parts even beyond its boundaries, and the people are designated Bakongo.
