Account in du Croo’s Generaal Swart (1943)
From W. Muurling
In May 1911 the Kedjoerön Petiambang and fourteen prominent chiefs visited, under Muurling’s leadership, the jaarmarkttentoonstelling at Koeta Radja; the administration was temporarily conducted by lieutenant Snell, who while acting brought in eight more uitgewekenen and four muzzle-loaders. During that visit Rödjö Tjoet Pasér with his panglimas and the blah-heads of Pasér and Reröbö solemnly begged the Governor’s forgiveness.
From Koeta Radja
In 1910 a Normaalcursus for the training of village schoolteachers was founded at Koeta Radja, which brought the necessary improvement in the quality of volksonderwijs. In 1915 Swart laid the first stone of the building of the Javasche Bank. In 1911 the jaarmarkttentoonstelling (annual fair exhibition) at Koeta Radja was visited under Muurling’s leadership by the Kedjoerön Petiambang and fourteen prominent chiefs of the Gajò Loeös, during which Rödjö Tjoet Pasér with his panglimas and the blah-heads of Pasér and Reröbö solemnly begged the Governor’s forgiveness. In December 1916 a meeting of progressive young oelèëbalangs and Acehnese officials was held at Koeta Radja in Swart’s presence, out of which the Sarekat Atjeh arose.
From Gajòlanden
In April Swart visited the division, inspected gampongs and held a great meeting with the blah-heads; the Kaniess column returned to garrison, its task fulfilled. In May the Kedjoerön Petiambang and fourteen prominent chiefs visited the fair exhibition at Koeta Radja under Muurling’s leadership, and there Rödjö Tjoet Pasér with his panglimas and the blah-heads of Pasér and Reröbö solemnly begged the Governor’s forgiveness. In September came news that Lebé Grondong was not dead: he had toured the Gajò Loeö during the hari raja feasts extorting from the population, had obtained two carbines on the death of the resistance head of Badaq, and in October murdered Rödjö Akoeb of Penosan in revenge for his journey to Koetaradja — though he handed in a panglima, a goeroe and a carbine.
