Book Description

Excerpt from Appendix to the Dictionary of the Hausa Language (Published 1876): Hausa-English Part, With Additions of Hausa Literature The author regrets that serious illness has prevented him from giving this Appendix all the attention he desired; and that its publication has been delayed from the same cause. He is, however, much cheered by the fact that the study of the Hausa language is now not only encouraged, but is about to be made compulsory among the officers commanding the Hausa Corps at the Gold Coast and at Lagos.
