Ferries across two rivers

Boima Kartumu and Sons of Kolobolia, Dewo, were granted sole right in 1938 to operate a ferry franchise for 20 years across the Marfa River from Kolobolia to the opposite side. Also in 1838, resident Daniel Jackson of Tallah was restored to citizenship, suggesting that he was previously convicted of a serious crime.

In 1938, the legislature granted to Zuke Kandakai, Njola Karmoh, Sengbe Kojowah and Siafa Jalla-Kei, the right to run a ferry across the Little Cape Mount at the points commonly known as Gbaa, to and from the opposite bank and Segana, to and from the opposite bank for a maximum charge of 12 cents.
