To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
This waU, with its gates, I have not heeai able to lay down with much exact* ness ; but, from my observations on my later visit in 1854, be- ing aware of the great inaccuracy of the little sketch of the town given by Clapperton, who himself pretends only to give an eye- sketch, I thought it worth while, with regard to a place like Kano (which certainly will at some future period become im- portant even for the commercial world of Europe), to survey and sketch it more minutely ; and I hope my pl...an, together with the view taken from Mount Dal& of the southern and real- ly inhabited quarter of the town, will give a tolerably correct idea of its character. The market-place is necessarily much less frequented during the rainy season, when most of the people are busy with the labors of the field. A great part of the market-place during that time is even inundated by the waters of the pond J&kara. I now proceed to enumerate the quarters, the names of which are not without their interest I must first observe that the quarters to the north of the great and characteristic pond J&ka- ra, which intersects the town fix)m east to west, are chiefly in- habited by Hausa people, or, as they are called by their con- querors, "Hdbe," from the singular "KAdo," while the south- ern quarters are chiefly, but not at all exclusively, inhabited by the Fulbe {sing.
