"The Little Rogues"

We left off with Makaba and his councillors showing an interest in literacy, while expressing various degrees of scepticism and concern about Moffat’s preaching of the resurrection of the dead.

Throughout the remainder of the visit, Makaba II maintained a demeanour of martial self-confidence, that dreaded the displeasure of none of his neighbours, all of whom he had repeatedly defeated. Having already faced them in battle, he told Moffat he only feared the firearms of the Makgoa.
