Account in du Croo’s Generaal Swart (1943)
From Tgk. di Barat
In 1911 his presence made itself felt again. In January 1911 a great meeting of the resistance party had taken place at Seureulo in the Meergebied — the present sub-division Takèngön — at the place where Tgk. di Barat was hiding, attended also by bands of Gajòs. But the meeting was unluckily discovered or betrayed, and driven apart by patrols; the Teungkoe’s father-in-law was killed. When in the following month an encounter with the marechaussée likewise ended unhappily, Tgk. di Barat left the Meergebied and returned to the plain of Lho’ Soekon and Lho’ Seumawè.
From Penghoeloe Koeala
Penghoeloe Koeala was een zekeren Penghoeloe Koeala, een Gajò uit Leuboe Sigeunab, die ook alweer stood in an odour of sanctity, who set on foot the religious movement at Serbödjadi in December 1917.
From Serbödjadi
The movement, set on foot by Penghoeloe Koeala, a Gajò of Leuboe Sigeunab, cost the gezaghebber of Lököp his life in an encounter at the gampong Semboeang and ended with four dead, among them the guardian of a holy grave, and the Penghoeloe’s capture.
