Chapter 14: Okonkwo's uncle and kinsmen help him rebuild a new compound since his other one was burned down. They also lent him some seed yam to start a new farm. His son has a wedding in which he took part in. Chapter 15: During the second year of Okonkwo’s exile, Obierika brings several bags of cowries to Okonkwo. He also brought bad news to him. A village called Abame was destroyed. A white man arrived in Abame on an iron horse which is a bicycle. The vilagers killed the man and tied his bike to the sacred tree. The man's comrades found his bike and assumed that he had been killed. They came back and destroyed the village. The reason for all the money being brought to Okonkwo was the business that Obierika was doing for Okonkwo. He was selling his yams for him.
