The OOtji-herero is the same as the Damara, and is spoken by a south- western African tribe. The committee of the South African Auxiliary Bible Society printed in 1875 the book of Psalms in that language, the translation having been prepared by the Reverend H. Brincker, of rthe Rhenish Missionary Society. In 1879 the British and Foreign Bible Society, at the request of Dr. Fabri, of the Rhenish Missionary Society, printed the New Test., which was also translated by Mr. Brincker, and revised by a committee.
