CHAPTER XIV.

The Author feels great joy at his deliverance, and proceeds through the

wilderness; but finds his situation very deplorable. Suffers greatly from

thirst, and faints on the sand.--Recovers, and makes another effort to

push forward. Is providentially relieved by a fall of rain. Arrives at a

Foulah village, where he is refused relief by the Dooty, but obtains food

from a poor woman. Continues his journey through the wilderness, and the

next day lights on another Foulah village, where he is hospitably

received by one of the shepherds. Arrives on the third day at a Negro

town called Wawra, tributary to the King of Bambarra.
