FOOTNOTES:

[1]This railway was in charge of Mr. George Wadham Floyer, who died a few months later in his dahabia near Girgeh, aged 26. He was a younger brother of Mr. Ernest Ayscoghe Floyer, chief of the Telegraph Department in Egypt, a distinguished Oriental Scholar, who first explored the Kittar Mountains in 1886, and to whom I am indebted for the foot-notes in the accompanying pages.—F.P.

[2]A French railway contractor, a well-known figure on the Nile.

[3]Ficus Sycamorus—the sycamore fig. The once popular drive in the Shubra is lined for the most part with these trees.
