numerous and promiscuous followers, equally ready to quarrel with
nature and with their fellows, yet indispensable for the conveyance
along that weary route of the double cargo of victuals, ammunition
and supplies?" "The answer was forthcoming. Then it was that for the
fifth time Central Africa was to behold the hero, at once the discoverer
