Note 24 — II

Philip Askell Benton translation

[Lamino (el Amin) was the son of a Kanembu, Sheikh Langa, and an Arab woman from Zouïla in the Tripolitaine. Like his father, he studied as a young man with the Koyams of Gaserregomo (Kasr Kumo), and accompanied him on a pilgrimage to Mecca. His father having died at Medina, Sheikh Lamino returned to Kanem. Tilho, Doc. sc. ii. 358.]
