where he would have been sure of a good reception, made him
adopt an unfortunate course. Unable, in face of his instructions from
home, to stop the expedition altogether, as in our case, he ordered
its leader to go towards the districts occupied by the Mossi, who
were wholly unprepared to receive it.
We left Sego on the morning of the 18th, and arrived the same
day at Sansanding, where my good friend Mademba was waiting for
us.
Every traveller who has been to Mademba’s, and has since
written an account of his journey, has made a point, not without
justice, of bearing grateful testimony to the merits of this noble fellow.
Mademba Seye is a native who was at one time in the employ of
the French post and telegraph office. He especially distinguished
himself during the construction of the line which, keeping alongside
of the Senegal, crosses the Toucouleur districts of the Senegalese
Foota. Just now the Toucouleurs were very much irritated against us,
and full of arrogance because no punishment had been inflicted on
them for their daily misdeeds. They stopped barges coming up from
St. Louis, they molested the traders and pillaged their merchandise,
and the greatest skill, courage, and savoir faire were needed on the
part of Mademba to conquer the difficulties besetting his path.
MADEMBA.

Later he did wonders in the Sudan, and his defence of the village
of Guinina was a glorious feat of arms. He was victorious over the
troops of Fabu, the brother of Samory, though he had no one with
him but the few employés helping him to put down the line. Colonel
Gallieni sent for him to be a kind of chief interpreter, and he held that
position until, the Toucouleurs having been driven from Sego and
Nioro, the country just conquered by the French was properly
organized.
A small kingdom, with Sansanding as capital, was placed under
Mademba; he had in his service a certain number of sofas, or
captive Amadu warriors, who had surrendered to the French and to
the natives. Our postmaster-general soon became the Fama
Mademba, the word fama signifying a chief or king among the
natives of Bambara.
Mademba gathered a court about him, showing a very clear sense
of the right policy to pursue. When with us his manners and tastes
were quite civilized, but he knew that to get an influence over his
new subjects he must adopt the customs of their chiefs. He began by
building himself a palace, which consists of a vast rectangular
enceinte, with a door embellished with rough ornaments in clay. In
the first vestibule, or bolo, are the guards, or dalasiguis, armed with
muskets. This porch gives access to a series of courts and other
bolos, where of an evening bellow the cattle and bleat the sheep
belonging to the chief. A last door, guarded or rather watched over
by some fifteen children, gives access to the favourite apartment of
the Fama. Why should children be employed? Because they are the
only people who can be depended on to tell the truth, and if they
notice anything unusual they are very sure, sooner or later, to tell
what they have seen. For the same reason, perhaps, and also on
æsthetic grounds, the Fama is waited on by women only, most of
whom are the daughters of blacksmiths or griots, specially attached
to the chief, their name, Korosiguis, meaning, “those who sit beside.”
Moreover, Mademba showed great acumen in his choice of servants,
and I never saw so many pretty girls anywhere else in the Sudan.
Behind the royal apartments, and completely surrounding the vast
enclosure, are the huts of Mademba’s wives; but there begins the
private life of the chief, and I can’t introduce you to that, for the
simple reason that I have never seen anything of it myself.
Surrounded by his male and female griots, wearing a grand green
burnous, on which gleamed the Cross of the Legion of Honour, the
reward of his courage in the service of France, Mademba came to
the banks of the river to welcome us. Shouts and acclamations of
delight and sympathy with us greeted us as we landed, and if we had
not known what all the fuss meant, we might have mistaken it for a
declaration of war.
We went home with the Fama, and there, taking off his burnous,
the black chief disappeared, to be replaced by our old friend
Mademba, cultivated, refined, a charming talker, quite up-to-date in
all that was going on in Europe, the man whom all Frenchmen who
have been in the Sudan know and appreciate. He did the honours of
an excellent, almost European meal, and we drank a glass of
champagne together, in spite of his being a good Mussulman, for he
has none of the stupid fanaticism of his fellow believers.
Just before we started I had made the following little speech to my
coolies: “My friends, I know I am asking what will cost you a good
deal of self-denial, but you must oblige me by not being too attentive
to the women you meet until we have reached Timbuktu. You know
that that sort of thing leads to disputes, sometimes even to regular
quarrels, with the natives, and we shall have quite enough hostility to
contend with without creating any ill-feeling ourselves. I warn you,
moreover, that I shall give you no more pay after we leave
Sansanding till we reach our goal. I will, however, give you two
months’ pay in advance at Sansanding, and you will have three days
to spend it in. For a year therefore, and perhaps more, after you
leave Sansanding, remember, you have done with women.”
Truth to tell, I had learnt from experience that the ardent
temperaments of negroes forming the escorts of expeditions really
often jeopardized success, if their amours did not actually bring
about failure. Of course I can’t be sure that my orders, which I
repeated later, were always strictly obeyed, but at all events I did a
good deal to lessen the evil.
YAKARÉ.

I gave my jolly fellows three days to enjoy themselves in, and they
took me at my word. Until half-past one on the 22nd I saw next to
nothing of them on board, and when the time for starting arrived I
had to send to hunt up our little Abdulaye Dem, who had quite
forgotten how the time went in the society of a coal black Circe.
Meanwhile, we Europeans amused ourselves far more usefully in
arranging for our further journey, and in trying the effect on the
natives of our most attractive possessions, viz. the little organ, the
bicycle, and the phonograph.
The organ had already done wonders, and as for our Suzanne, as
we called our bicycle, she caused a perfect delirium of joy.
Mademba had an ancient-looking negress of Amadu, named
Yakaré, in his suite. She was really only about forty years old, but
she was considered one of the cleverest women in all Bambara.
There was a certain ring about her songs of war and love which
would be appreciated even in Europe, and the following specimen, in
which she glorifies Donga or the vulture, Monson, the greatest fama
of Bambara, will serve to give an idea of the rhythm.

Braves! Heroes, who of you dares rail at Donga?


I tell you evil will come upon you if you mock at him.
Raillery of him was fatal to Diakuruna Tutun.
Samaniana Baci thought to play with Donga,
He fancied he could make merry with him;
But that did not please the vulture,
And he took Bamana Dankun
And cut off his head, yes, took his head from his shoulders.
Dankun had only said that the Bambaras
Could not pause in sacrifices already begun.[4]
I sing of Donga Jaribata,[5]
The vulture of four wings,
A mighty bird, whose talons
Can tear up the soil of the earth;
A bird who if he will
Can dig a well with his claws.

You can just imagine the sensation when, after the negress had
finished her chant, the phonograph repeated it without anybody’s
help.
LARGE NIGER CANOES.

But all good things must come to an end, and to the great regret
of my coolies, I gave the signal for departure on the 22nd.
Below Sansanding the Niger increases sensibly in depth. This fact
explains alike the former and the future importance of the village as
a commercial centre. The trade of the country is, in fact, conveyed
up and down by water in big canoes some 60 feet long, capable of
carrying twenty tons, and made of planks tied together. Holes are
pierced in these planks, through which ropes are passed made of
the fibres, which are very strong, of the leaves of a kind of hibiscus.
When Sansanding, Jenné, and Timbuktu were prosperous places,
when the savage hordes of Toucouleurs had not yet spread death
and desolation everywhere in the name of Islam, these heavy craft,
sometimes drawing more than six feet, used to halt at Sansanding.
For the traffic further up stream smaller boats were used, which plied
to and fro nearly all the year round. A central mart was absolutely
indispensable to the Sudan merchants, and Sansanding was fitted
by nature to become that mart. I believe that in its most prosperous
times it numbered from thirty to forty thousand inhabitants, though
now these are reduced to some three or four thousand, in spite of
the fresh impulse given by the more prosperous times of to-day, and
the intelligence of the governor Mademba.
When the railway has been pushed from Kayes to Kolikoro, and
when steamboats ply on the Niger, similar causes will of course
produce similar results. Steamboats will not, however, be able to go
beyond Sansanding all the year round, for no amount of
improvement in their build can reduce their draught below one and a
half or two feet. Above this point, however, the river is navigable for a
longer or shorter time every year in such barges as are now in use.
At the most, the traffic is only interrupted for about four months in the
year. Sansanding will again become a central emporium and
transhipping station; all its old importance will be restored to it.
I may add, that it has fortunately many other advantages,
including good anchorage and landing places, where boats can be
moored in shelter during the violent storms of Central Africa; the soil
too is very dry, so that the place is healthier than many others in the
Sudan, and the people are gentle, intelligent, and industrious.
Beyond Sansanding the course of the Niger changes
considerably. Thus far the river flows between pretty straight uniform
banks, but now the hills are lower, and behind them the country is
perfectly flat, without so much as an undulation, so that they are
completely flooded, often for an immense distance, when the water
is high. Here and there villages rise from slight eminences, the
clumps of hibiscus surrounding them rendering them visible from
afar. Now too appears the sweet grass which the natives call burgu,
a special characteristic of the riverside vegetation as far as Say. It is
a kind of aquatic couch-grass nearly level with the soil when on the
subsiding of the floods the ground becomes dry again. Directly the
soil is once more inundated, however, the burgu sends out shoots
with extraordinary rapidity, and they grow so fast that they soon
reach the top of the water. The natives make a sweet beverage of
the leaves of this grass, of too sickly a taste to be fancied by
Europeans, but negroes are very fond of it. For our hydrographical
surveys the burgu was a most invaluable help, growing as it does, as
I have already remarked, wherever the solid ground reappears after
the floods. If, therefore, we should be overtaken by a tornado on the
open river, we can always take refuge from the waves by anchoring
in the middle of the submerged tracts.
On January 1 we reached Gurao on Lake Debo, where I had
recently resided for two years in charge of the Niger flotilla,
consisting of the two gunboats Niger and Mage, and a few barges
made of the wood of the country. Two of these barges, it will be
remembered, were now part of our exploring expedition.
We paid a visit between whiles to the tomb of Sidi Hamet Beckay,
in the village of Saredina. I shall often have occasion later to refer to
this worthy, so I will content myself with adding but a few words
about him here. It was thanks to him that Barth was able to stop six
months at Timbuktu, pursue his voyage in safety, and go down the
river by Say to Sokoto, whence he had started eighteen months
before. Thanks to him too, Barth was able to send details to Europe
of the hitherto mysterious city of Timbuktu, which had previously
been visited by no white men except René Caillé.
When El Hadj Omar and his fanatical hordes came to devastate
Massina, Hamet Beckay did his utmost to stop the course of the
Toucouleur conqueror, by urging on him his own interpretation of the
Mussulman religion, which he also professed: an interpretation too
noble and elevated to be adopted by any but a few votaries. It was
all in vain; his remonstrances were unheeded by El Hadj. Beckay
had to be content with organizing a stout resistance; he summoned
to arms his faithful friends the Tuaregs and the Fulahs, his former
adversaries. But, alas! he died at Saredina before he could
accomplish anything. The story goes, that when in perfect health he
was seized with a gloomy presentiment of his approaching end. He
called his intimate friends together, telling them that he might
perhaps soon be summoned to make a distant journey, and giving to
them his turban and his sword, the former for his son Abiddin, the
latter for his son-in-law, Beckay Uld Ama Lamine, which signified that
he bequeathed his spiritual power to Abiddin and his temporal
authority to Ama Lamine. Then he begged to be left alone to pray
during the hour of the siesta. When his followers returned they found
the great marabout, his chaplet, clasped in his hands, and his eyes
closed in an attitude of ecstasy. After watching him for a short time
they became alarmed at his immobility, they touched him to try and
awake him. But his lifeless body fell to the ground, the spirit of
Hamet Beckay had left its earthly tabernacle. Beckay Uld Ama
Lamine continued the struggle begun by his father-in-law, and to him
and his faithful adherents is due the honour of having besieged and
killed El Hadj Omar at Hamdallahi. The blood-stained course of the
Toucouleurs was checked for the moment, and the Western Sudan
was saved from falling into the hands of the ferocious warriors of El
Hadj.
Saredina is about two and a half miles from the river, and to reach
it we had to cross a partially inundated plain over-grown with grass,
in which nested quantities of aquatic birds. Arrived at the village we
asked to be directed to the tomb, and found it to consist of little more
than a small earthen case upheld by wooden poles, for the mass of
dried bricks which had originally formed the monument to Hamet
Beckay had all but disappeared. The natives of the neighbourhood
had shown little respect for the great chief’s resting-place, and had
used the materials of his tomb to weight their nets and make their
agricultural implements. In my report to the governor of the French
Sudan I put in a plea for a grave more worthy of Hamet Beckay. I
hope my suggestion will be attended to, for it would be not only
fitting, but good policy to preserve the memory of a man whose
character was the more estimable in that such tolerance as his is
rare indeed amongst his fellow believers. Such an act of pious
respect for a Mussulman on our part would greatly increase our
moral influence amongst the Mahommedans of the neighbourhood,
especially amongst those of the interesting Kunta tribe to which
Hamet Beckay belonged.
THE TOMB OF HAMET BECKAY AT SAREDINA.

SARAFÉRÉ.
At Gurao we had to collect the ammunition for our guns and
cannons, and also to pick up some of our actual weapons, notably a
certain machine gun which had belonged to the Niger flotilla. The
work involved in all this delayed us till the 3rd, but on the afternoon
of that day we resumed our journey.
On the 7th we reached Saraféré, an important market-place near
the junction of the Niger and the Kolikolo, which latter is an arm of
the river, branching off from it a little above Lake Debo. Here old
Abdul Dori, the guide we had engaged at Sego, brought us a young
man named Habilulaye, who was a Kunta, and I seize the
opportunity of his visit to say something about the tribe to which he
belonged, as I shall often have to refer to it.
The Kuntas are of the Arab race, and are descended from the
famous conqueror of North Africa, Sidi Okha, who was a native of
Yemen. After winning over to the religion of Mahomet a considerable
portion of North Africa, his dominion extending nearly to Tangiers,
the victor was assassinated near Biskra, where his tomb is still to be
seen.
His descendants spread in many directions, and the Kuntas took
root at Tuat, where as venerated marabouts they exercised, indeed
they still exercise, a very great influence.
During the first half of the present century, Timbuktu occupied a
very difficult and most precarious position. About 1800 a Fulah
marabout, named Othman dan Fodio, carved out for himself a
regular empire between Lake Tchad and the Niger, and his example
led to the revolt, and the generally successful revolt, of nearly all the
Fulahs distributed throughout the river basin. At Massina, Amadu
Lobbo Cissé, a chief—of Soninké birth, it is true, but who had long
resided amongst the Fulahs—raised the standard of revolt in the
name of Islam, and his attempt, after various vicissitudes,
succeeded. He and his son founded later an empire, the influence of
which, with Hamda-Allahi as its capital, soon extended on both
banks of the Niger as far as Timbuktu. Arrived there, however, the
Fulahs found themselves face to face with the Tuareg tribes, who
were very jealous of the maintenance of their independence. War of
course soon broke out, and it lasted for half-a-century without any
subjugation of the Tuaregs. It was not until later that the invasion of
the Toucouleurs, led by El Hadj Omar, united the combatants against
their common foe.
During this time of struggle and trouble Timbuktu, standing as it
did between the two contending parties, passed first to one and then
to the other, and pillaged by both sides, she rapidly declined in
prosperity, and was in danger of complete ruin.
Under these trying circumstances, the merchants of the city,
eager to obtain some sort of security for their lives, their goods, and
their trade, sent to Tuat an earnest petition that some venerated
Kunta marabout should come and live near Timbuktu, hoping that
the respect felt for his piety might put a stop to the depredations of
which their town was the victim.
Sidi Moktar responded to this appeal. He came, and took up his
abode with his family and a few of his more distant relations near
Timbuktu. Of these relations the most celebrated were his brothers
Sidi Aluatta and Sidi Hamet Beckay with his nephew Amadi.
Barth has told us much about them all, but we have now specially
to deal with Hamet Beckay, the doctor’s chief protector.
Imbued through reading Barth’s travels with a belief that the very
fate of my expedition might depend on finding, as he did, some man
universally loved and respected to take me and my followers under
his protection, I earnestly hoped to find such a man amongst the
Tuaregs, with whom I had become well acquainted during my two
years’ residence in the Sudan.
As will be borne out by my further narrative, these Tuaregs
seemed to me far less black than they were painted in Europe. At
the same time, I recognized that certain peculiarities of their
character might involve me in great difficulties. If they were not
exactly instinctively ferocious, I knew that they were quick to take
offence, defiant, full of dread of innovation, and ready to look on
every stranger as a spy. To them a traveller is but the harbinger of
some warlike expedition, which will wrest from them their greatest
treasure, their independence.
But I had to get some one to go bail for me, some one to take me
under his patronage and protection, and I had resolved, if it could
possibly be done, to find that some one amongst the Kuntas. Surely,
I thought, the traditions of tolerance of which Hamet Beckay had
given such striking proof, must have been handed down to some of
his descendants.
I did not, however, disguise from myself that in the very nature of
things, since other marabouts had, since Beckay’s death, come to
preach a holy war, and to inculcate hatred of the infidel, that the
Kuntas would necessarily be forced—if they did not wish to lose their
prestige—to howl with the rest of the wolves. But I reflected there is
still time to appeal to the example of their grandfather, and
experience proved that I was right.
I put out all my eloquence and powers of persuasion to win over
young Habibulaye, and I succeeded. From him I learned that the
Kuntas were now divided into several groups. He and his brother
Hamadi, the sons of Sidi Aluatti, the brother of Hamet Beckay, had,
however, remained at Timbuktu when the French occupied that town,
and had all espoused our cause.
Aluatti, the son of Amadi, was in authority on the southern side of
the river, and he looked on our expedition with a favourable eye.
Further on, Baye and Baba Hamet, the sons of Hamet Beckay,
would, I expected, be useful auxiliaries to us if only for the sake of
their father’s memory.
Habibulaye did not, it is true, conceal from me the fact that other
Kuntas were bitterly hostile to us, notably a certain Abiddin, who
generally resided at Tuat, and who meant to rouse the Hoggars
against us. He had, in fact, twice gone quite close to Timbuktu to try
and make the people rise against the French.
More confirmed than ever by all that I heard in my resolve, and
having now got all the information I could out of Habibulaye, who
was but a child, I made up my mind, as soon as I got to Timbuktu to
take Hamadi into my confidence, and get him to give me
recommendations to his relations.
A strong east wind, which lashed the river into waves and was
dead against us, delayed us so much that we did not reach Kabara
until the evening of January 11.
As is well known, Timbuktu is not actually on the river, but at low
water is some eight or nine miles off. Djitafe is then the nearest point
of approach for canoes, but when the river rises they go up a lateral
arm, and come first to Koriomé and then to Day. At certain times a
stream, the bed of which is said to have been hollowed out, or at
least deepened by the hand of man, enables very small craft to get
up to Kabara, whilst more rarely, that is to say, when the inundations
are at their height, the various excavations behind the Kabara dune
are successively filled up, and boats can reach the capital itself. As a
general rule, however, merchandise is taken into Timbuktu on the
backs of camels and asses, the route varying according to the state
of the river.
The ancient capital of Nigritia, or the Sudan, as it was still called
not long ago in geographical text-books, has lost all its mystery since
it passed into the hands of the French, and opinions are divided as
to its present and future position. My friend Felix Dubois has
described it, and it would be alike a waste of time and presumption
on my part to attempt to supplement what he has said so well. I shall
content myself with noting the reason of the former great commercial
importance of Timbuktu; relatively considered of course. “Timbuktu,”
says an Arab author, “is the point of meeting of the camel and the
canoe.” That fact alone would not, however, be enough to account
for its prosperity; many other places on the river fulfil this condition,
as well if not better than Timbuktu, for, as we can ourselves testify,
the canoe and the camel only meet there a few days in the year, and
not always even as often as that.
In my opinion we have to seek the explanation elsewhere, and I
think I have found it. Here it is: camels cannot with impunity
approach rivers or other water-courses, for this reason. The banks
are subject to constant inundations, and, especially in the Niger
basin, quantities of succulent grass, containing a great deal of water,
everywhere spring up, which, though the camel eats them
gluttonously, are fatal to the “ship of the desert,” used as it is to dry
food.
Now by a strange freak of nature, the part of the desert, I will not
say exactly the driest part, but certainly the portion containing neither
streams nor permanent pools, that vast expanse improperly called
the Sahara, stretches up to the very gates of Timbuktu, so that
caravans can reach the city without any risk to the animals. In a
word, may we not say that Timbuktu is not a port of the Niger in the
Sahara, but a port of the Sahara near the Niger?
As long as the trade of Timbuktu is carried on chiefly by caravans
coming from the north, it will, in my opinion, retain its importance, but
as soon as the Sudan railway is completed, merchandise will come
by way of it and the river, and the commerce of Timbuktu will be
reduced to a trifling trade in salt, which is dug out in considerable
quantities from the mines of Towdeyni, about twenty days’ march on
the north.
When we arrived, we could only bring our boats up to Kabera.
The port was blocked with big canoes made of planks tied together
in the manner already described, and a brisk trade in salt and grain
was going on on the quays.
A MOSQUE AT TIMBUKTU.

The next day I went to Timbuktu, and was received with open
arms by the commandant, M. Rejou, who was in charge of the whole
district.
I had one thing very much at heart, and I set to work to see about
it at once. It was to persuade Father Hacquart, superior of Pères
blancs mission at Timbuktu, to accompany us on our expedition.
When I said persuade, I did not perhaps use quite the right word,
for I did not for one moment doubt the readiness of the good father
to go with us. The companion of Attanoux in his journey amongst the
Tuaregs of the north, formerly Commandant des Frères armés of
Mgr. Lavigerie, Father Hacquart could not fail to be won over by the
idea of accomplishing a similar journey. But I knew him to be too
devoted to his duty to hesitate an instant between a project, however
attractive to his tastes and desires, and the interests of the mission,
which had been under his direction at Timbuktu for more than a year,
and to which his rare qualities had already given such life and
success.
On the other hand, even from the point of view of the work to
which Father Hacquart and his companions had devoted
themselves, going down the Niger, opening relations with the natives
on its banks, and obtaining all the information necessary for the work
of their future evangelization, was really perhaps to bring about the
good results hoped for years before they could otherwise have been
achieved. The aim of Father Hacquart was really the same as ours,
to see, to study on the spot, and to make friends, leaving to his
superiors the task of deciding how his future campaign should be
carried out.
As for me, nothing could be better for the success of my
undertaking than the co-operation of Father Hacquart. Already
familiar with the manners and customs of the Tuaregs, he would be a
most valuable adviser; a distinguished Arabic scholar, he could in
many cases converse without an interpreter with the natives, a
matter of the greatest importance. He could, moreover, check the
translations and reports of my Arab interpreter, Tierno Abdulaye
Dem. Then his intelligence, the loftiness of his aims and views, the
uprightness and energy of his character, were a sure guarantee that
in him I should find a most valuable controller of my own acts and
schemes, for of course I should ever be ready to listen to what he
might suggest.
FATHER HACQUART.

Father Hacquart turned out indeed to be all that I have just


described. I often changed all my plans in accordance with his
advice, and I never had cause to regret having done so. He must
pardon me for giving expression here to all my gratitude, and for
proclaiming it on every occasion as loud as I can, for it was in a very
great measure to him I owed the remarkable fact, that my Niger
expedition was accomplished in the midst of tribes so diverse and
sometimes badly disposed towards the French—without the firing of
a single shot.
As I hoped, Father Hacquart yielded to my persuasions, and we
now numbered five Europeans.
On the other hand, our native escort was reduced. One of our
coolies, Matar Samba, had been out of sorts ever since we left
Sansanding. During the last few days he had become worse, and
both Dr. Taburet and a medical man at Timbuktu were of opinion that
he was suffering from tubercular disease, and would only hamper,
not help me, in the further journey. I decided therefore to leave him
at Timbuktu, and when I came back from Dakar on our return I had
the pleasure of finding him much better, if not completely cured.
Aided by Father Hacquart, I at once opened relations with
Hamadi, the Kunta of whom I have already spoken, and he promised
to do all he could to persuade his relation Aluatta to go with us. It
was significant that when I begged Hamadi to join us himself, he
replied, “No; I might merely arouse opposition, and you might suffer
through my being with you. I would rather write to Aluatta; he will be
more likely to say yes then, for, like a dutiful relation, I shall only urge
him to come and share the windfall of all your beautiful presents.”
The next thing I did was to try and meet at Timbuktu with some
natives who were on friendly relations with the Awellimiden, the
important Tuareg tribe to which I shall so often have to refer later, but
whether they spoke the truth or were deceiving me, one and all
declared that they knew absolutely nothing about them.
To make up for this, however, a native of Tuat, a certain Bechir
Uld Mbirikat, who had long lived at Timbuktu, and whom I had met
before, gave me some letters for his cousin Mohammed, who was
living amongst the Igwadaren Tuaregs, and for Sheriff Salla Uld
Kara, chief of the village of Tosaye, who had once been the pupil of
Hamet Beckay, and the friend of Barth.
Moreover, Bechir gave me a valuable bit of advice, which I
immediately followed, without, however, fully realizing its importance
at the time. This counsel, perhaps, contributed more than anything
we did to the success of our expedition. “Tell them,” said Bechir, “that
you are the son of Abdul Kerim.” Now Abdul Kerim was the Arab
name assumed by Dr. Barth during his journey. This custom of taking
an Arab name seemed almost comic, and reminded me of a little
play I once saw acted at the Châtelet Theatre in Paris. I forget the
