How rapidly the course of events was to take shape, there in their African home, and how far afield it was to lead them, they did not guess. Nor if they had known how long and perilous was the journey, how fraught with dangers and disappointments, would they have been so eager to follow Lubu the pygmy in search of the mysterious white man.
