[188]Now at Omdurman.
[189]Executed at Fasher by Ali Dinar in 1903.
[190]An Italian officer who had been sent out to assist Gessi Pasha, and remained on to explore.
[191]It is, perhaps, hardly necessary to say that these rumours were almost entirely devoid of foundation, for Emin, on his return to the interior, never went north of Kavalli’s, having a lively recollection of his troubles (in 1888) on the Upper Nile. He was murdered at Kinena’s, in the Congo Free State, on 26th October, 1892; this crime was owing to the petty jealousy of one Kibonge, who wished to show his rival, Munye Mohara, who had murdered several Belgians (Hodister, etc.), that he too could kill a white man!
[192]Now with Ali Dinar at El Fasher.
[193]Surrendered to Ali Dinar at El Fasher in 1902 and now residing there.
[194]Successor to Van Kerckhoven.
[195]Lt.-Col. Sparkes, who visited Hofrat el Nahas in 1903, states that the inhabitants absolutely deny this visit of La Kéthulle’s.
[196]Abu Girga surrendered and was given a letter of recommendation by Chaltin allowing him to return to his own country in the west. He recently forwarded this letter from Fasher to Khartoum, with a request that he might be permitted to settle in Omdurman.
[197]One was reported to be an Englishman, by name Hackiff, but their identity—if they existed—has never been disclosed.
