FOOTNOTES:

[1] Trusan, means a passage connecting one stream with another, or a short cut joining two reaches of the same stream.

[2] I may remark here that the map I had with me had been constructed during my former journeys, and I verified it as I proceeded.

[3] The Murut tribe, who formerly inhabited the Madalam branch of the Limbang, and occupied the country round the base of the mountain of Molu.

[4] A pikul is 133⅓ lb.

[5] A gantang is six pints.

[6] Gray shirtings.

[7] There are two ranges, which explain why I was so puzzled by the different appearances presented by these mountains. In fact, it was only afterwards I discovered that in ascending the Trunan we had got under the “child of Molu” as it is called by the Malays; had we continued ascending the Madalam, we should have found ourselves under the great peak.

[8] The best kinds are Timbaran and Damuan.
