Captain Canot or, Twenty Years of an African Slaver "Pongo" Simpson was sitting before a brazier fire boiling some tea for his captain, when the warning click sounded from the German trenches. Mud and Khaki Sketches from Flanders and France The whites couldn't draw it out o' them wi' tortures, but every tribe hereabouts knows what Pongo is, or think they do. The Blind Lion of the Congo Even after a Pongo Twistleton birthday party, I was capable of grasping simple facts like these. Right Ho, Jeeves The grown Pongos are never taken alive, owing to their strength, which is so great that ten men cannot hold one of them. Two Trips to Gorilla Land and the Cataracts of the Congo Volume 1 In a few days, however, he returned to the Rio Pongo from his airing on the Atlantic, where his wrath had probably been somewhat cooled by the sea-breeze. Captain Canot or, Twenty Years of an African Slaver The Mazitu said that the Pongo people are devils who came by the secret channels through the reeds in canoes and stole their children and women, whom they sacrificed to their gods. Allan and the Holy Flower It seemed that I had been staked out as a sacrifice to Pongo. The Blind Lion of the Congo What with the natural reaction after Pongo's party and this stunning blow, it is not too much to say that the soul was seared. Right Ho, Jeeves The young Pongos hang upon their mother's belly, with their hands clasped about her. Two Trips to Gorilla Land and the Cataracts of the Congo Volume 1 She must be shipped from the Rio Pongo; and no one could be trusted with the task but the Ali-Mami’s son and friend, the Mongo Téodor! Captain Canot or, Twenty Years of an African Slaver Well, Allan, as you put it like that, the truth is that I heard something more about the Pongo than I told you up country. Allan and the Holy Flower "Pongo?" repeated the explorer as he stared hard at Burt. The Blind Lion of the Congo One day, however, Mavis succeeded in penetrating the atmosphere of ill-natured reserve with which "Pongo" surrounded herself. Sparrows: the story of an unprotected girl At the confluence, tree- dots, tipping the watery marge, denoted what Barbot calls the "Pongo Islands." Two Trips to Gorilla Land and the Cataracts of the Congo Volume 1 Presently the breeze began to freshen, and the tall, raking masts of a schooner were seen gliding above the tops of the mangroves that masked the Rio Pongo’s mouth. Captain Canot or, Twenty Years of an African Slaver So still did he stand that I began to wonder whether he were one of those ghosts which the Mazitu swore the Pongo wizards send out to haunt their country. Allan and the Holy Flower "What do you mean by the sign of Pongo?" The Blind Lion of the Congo "Is that Pongo?" asked the girl, who was still staring out of the window. Sparrows: the story of an unprotected girl They consider themselves superior to the "Pongos," and they have exchanged their former fighting reputation for that of peaceful traders to the mainland and to the rivers Muni and Mundah. Two Trips to Gorilla Land and the Cataracts of the Congo Volume 1 While the bouillon was bubbling in the coppers, I got an insight into the condition of Rio Pongo concerns since my departure. Captain Canot or, Twenty Years of an African Slaver A queer people, these Pongo, with their white god and goddess and their Holy Flower. Allan and the Holy Flower There was an instant in which Pongo seemed to hang suspended, like Mohammed's coffin, between heaven and earth, then the force of gravity asserted itself. Indiscretions of Archie He was a fine young man of about twenty years of age, a native of Pongo, who had been taken as a slave, and had become a soldier against his will. Ismailia I have italicized the passages which show that the traditions still preserved on the coast, about the Pongo and the Chimpanzee, date from old. Two Trips to Gorilla Land and the Cataracts of the Congo Volume 1 Within, I found a careful duplicate of all the humble comforts in my domicil on the Rio Pongo. Captain Canot or, Twenty Years of an African Slaver So it would be no use trying to visit your Pongo friends till then, which gives me plenty of time to go to England and come out again. Allan and the Holy Flower He could not see who his rival was, but it was evident that at least one among those present did not intend to allow Pongo's brother to slip by without a fight. Indiscretions of Archie The natives brought a bullock and a Pongo slave as a present from the chief. Ismailia There is Chips and Spots and Lulu and Pongo and the Corsair and the Piffler and Jack Johnson the Second, all unmarried. The Inca of Perusalem Secondly: I was entitled to every sort of courtesy from Fullahs, because I was a rich trader from the Rio Pongo. Captain Canot or, Twenty Years of an African Slaver One night when I was camped there by myself, for none of my men would remain so near the Pongo country after sunset, I woke up with a sense that I was no longer alone. Allan and the Holy Flower It was Parker who first directed Archie's attention to the hidden merits of Pongo. Indiscretions of Archie Pongo then for the first time showed himself, sneaking about with an escort, hiding his head in a cloth lest our "evil eyes" might bewitch him. The Discovery of the Source of the Nile I should not recommend Pongo, because he snores so frightfully that it has been necessary to build him a sound-proof bedroom: otherwise the royal family would get no sleep. The Inca of Perusalem For the next six hours there was not a busier bee on the Rio Pongo than Don Téodore. Captain Canot or, Twenty Years of an African Slaver Now these Pongo are supposed to be great magicians, and the god they worship is said to be a gorilla, which, if you are right, accounts for their name. Allan and the Holy Flower Archie gazed at Pongo again, with the dim hope of discovering virtues not immediately apparent to the casual observer. Indiscretions of Archie This river, in the mouth thereof, is at least four miles broad; but when you are about the Iland called 'Pongo', it is not above two miles broad.... Evidence as to Man's Place in Nature Soon you are going on a journey that has to do with a flower, and you will visit peoples named the Mazitu and the Pongo who live on an island in a lake. The Ivory Child Now, the tragedy of my first night on the Rio Pongo was my transition from pupilage to responsible independence. Captain Canot or, Twenty Years of an African Slaver "The land of our people, Chief," they answered, "which is bordered on one side by the bush and on the other by the great lake where live the Pongo wizards." Allan and the Holy Flower He would not have taken Pongo as a gift, to oblige a dying friend. Indiscretions of Archie It is certainly the Pongo of Wurmb; 13 and it is as certainly not the Pongo of Battell, seeing that the Orang-Utan is entirely confined to the great Asiatic islands of Borneo and Sumatra. Evidence as to Man's Place in Nature "True, Macumazana, but compared to the Kendah the Pongo were but as the smallest star before the face of the sun." The Ivory Child On the whole the Pongo, who were operating in what was almost their native element, were getting the best of it, and driving the Mazitu back. Allan and the Holy Flower Could it possibly, as the Motombo said, have accompanied the Pongo people from their home in Western or Central Africa, or perhaps have been brought here by them in a state of captivity? Allan and the Holy Flower To assist your memory, the figure to which I allude is the one which you whimsically referred to as Pongo. Indiscretions of Archie He wishes to go on to the country of the Pongo people if we can get there. Allan and the Holy Flower I told her all about the Pongo gorilla-god, of which already she knew something. The Ivory Child First I reflected on the Pongo and their gods. Allan and the Holy Flower Yet it would be sweet to deceive those Pongo once again, and, Baas, I won't see you killed just to save myself another bad smell or two. Allan and the Holy Flower Willie had returned from his rambles among the connoisseurs, and Pongo's brother was back on his pedestal. Indiscretions of Archie However, it held while we ate some food we had brought with us, after which it died away altogether, and the Pongo people took to their paddles. Allan and the Holy Flower Of the slavers themselves nothing more had been seen, or of the Pongo either, though the Mazitu declared that their ghosts, or those of their victims, still haunted the island in the lake. The Ivory Child As it was also ancient, this seemed to show that the monkey god and the orchid had been from the beginning jointly worshipped by the Pongo. Allan and the Holy Flower At the first turn the Pongo soldiers set up a low and eerie chant which they continued during its whole length, that according to my pacings was something over three hundred yards. Allan and the Holy Flower Professor Binstead had unwrapped his parcel, and had placed the Pongo on the table. Indiscretions of Archie This, indeed, was the fate to which we ourselves had been doomed in accordance with the hateful Pongo custom. Allan and the Holy Flower Far beyond the Pongo and across the desert dwell my people, the Kendah, in a secret land. The Ivory Child Then, admonished by the spear points of the Pongo, we landed in the slimy mud. Allan and the Holy Flower That is all I can say about the brute, though of course the Pongo had their own story. Allan and the Holy Flower "Do you mean to say," said Archie, with honest amazement, "that there are chumps going about loose—absolutely loose—who would pay that for a weird little object like Pongo?" Indiscretions of Archie Once the Pongo people owned all this land and only had their sacred places beyond the water. Allan and the Holy Flower When you wish to visit us, as you will do, journey to the north of that lake where the Pongo dwell, and stay there on the edge of the desert shooting till we come. The Ivory Child The Pongo, I may add, were, like the Zulus, very clean in their persons, though whether they all used hot water, I cannot say. Allan and the Holy Flower Mavovo struck back with the weapon he had taken from the Pongo sentry at the cave mouth, and killed or wounded one of them. Allan and the Holy Flower The high-priest, undaunted by previous rebuffs, regarded the figure with a gloating enthusiasm wholly unshared by the congregation, who were plainly looking upon Pongo's little brother as just another of those things. Indiscretions of Archie "Tell us about the Pongo and this white devil they worship," I said. Allan and the Holy Flower "Am I a Pongo that I should wish to kill messengers and eat them?" asked Bausi, with sarcasm, a speech at which I noticed the Pongo envoys winced a little. Allan and the Holy Flower The Pongo only eat those whom the White God has chosen. Allan and the Holy Flower So Stephen was left alone, dragging at the great orchid, till a Pongo reaching over the canoe drove a spear through his shoulder. Allan and the Holy Flower This sudden, tremendous jump, this wholly unforeseen boom in Pongos, if one might so describe it, was more than a little disturbing. Indiscretions of Archie We scrambled out of that canoe the prow of which, as I left it the last, I pushed round across the water-lane to obstruct those of the Pongo. Allan and the Holy Flower These Pongo prisoners, having now no home, and not knowing where their people had gone except that it was "towards the north," asked for leave to settle among the Mazitu, which was granted them. Allan and the Holy Flower Or if we returned to the island of the Flower, there ere long we should certainly be attacked and destroyed by Komba and the Pongos when they came to look for our bodies. Allan and the Holy Flower Half a dozen or more of the Pongo pushed themselves between the stern or bow of our canoe and the reeds, and waded forward to kill him. Allan and the Holy Flower At least, this one isn't Pongo, don't you know—it's his little brother, but presumably equally foul in every respect. Indiscretions of Archie The effect of the death of Komba upon the Pongos was very strange. Allan and the Holy Flower The Pongos were then about a mile and a half behind. Allan and the Holy Flower Now we were in the reeds, for thanks to the flag which guided us, we had struck the big hippopotamus lane exactly, and the Pongos, paddling like demons, were about thirty yards behind. Allan and the Holy Flower This she did wading backwards by his side and keeping her eyes fixed full upon the Pongo. Allan and the Holy Flower Pongo fell with a sharp crack and disintegrated. Indiscretions of Archie A third, however, killed a Pongo, which caused some confusion in the ranks of Tusculum. Allan and the Holy Flower They got back to the boat and began to lift the plant out when the Pongo fell upon them, striking at them with their spears over the width of our canoe. Allan and the Holy Flower The Pongos have gone and I think will not return, for they have had enough of the white man's guns. Allan and the Holy Flower Two of the canoes we captured, however, and with them six or seven Pongos. Allan and the Holy Flower Even from where he sat Archie could detect on the features of the figure on the pedestal the same expression of insufferable complacency which had alienated his sympathies from the original Pongo. Indiscretions of Archie Mrs. Eversley told me afterwards, however, that the Kalubis had a tradition that the god once possessed a wife which died before the Pongo migrated to their present home. Allan and the Holy Flower Certainly none of these Mazitu will go, since they fear lest they should find a permanent peace—inside of the Pongo. Allan and the Holy Flower These Pongo are horrible wizards, a great and powerful people who live by themselves amidst the swamps and mix with none. Allan and the Holy Flower You also are very strong in your wits, and by doing this you will make fools of all the Pongo. Allan and the Holy Flower And if we catch any of the Pongo," went on Bausi, "as sometimes we do when they come to hunt for slaves, we kill them. Allan and the Holy Flower As for the Pongo themselves, their case was obvious. Allan and the Holy Flower He rose and bowed, but the councillors remained seated, greeting us with a long-continued and soft clapping of the hands, which, it seemed, was the Pongo method of salute. Allan and the Holy Flower In this state I hovered over the people of the Pongo who were gathered together on a great plain under an inky sky. Allan and the Holy Flower I may say here, however, that the Pongo augured the fertility or otherwise of each succeeding year from the number of the blooms on the Holy Flower. Allan and the Holy Flower That is so," broke in Babemba, "for when I was a lad I was a slave to the Pongo and doomed to be sacrificed to the White Devil. Allan and the Holy Flower Have you not heard the Pongo prophecy, that while the White Devil lives and the Holy Flower blooms, they will live. Allan and the Holy Flower Then, allowing an average of twenty to a canoe, the Pongo tribe number about two thousand males old enough to paddle, an estimate which turned out to be singularly correct. Allan and the Holy Flower Here you may rest safe," he said, "for, white lords, are you not the honoured guests of the Pongo people? Allan and the Holy Flower |
