Walter Wilkins correspondence, written in WASE, a town in the west
of Northern Nigeria. On the back is a NORTHERN NIGERIA NO 7
1901datestampand a London DE 5 01 arrival c.d.s. The letter, dated
30.10.01 Wilkins Wilkins who was serving with the West Africa
Frontier Force, describes the death at the hands of the French at
Gujiba of Fad-El-Allah, a native leader who had claimed British
protection. His death occurred on 23rd August but news of it had
only just reached Wase. The French had penetrated 150 miles into
British territory to kill him! A very fascinating account of life
in the territory at that time
