Resumofor a distance of nearly 200 miles, I riding on an ox, while our baggage was carried by porters.The rains were now in full swing, the grass was green and very high, and we lived in a perpetual state of moisture.At Fort Possel, on the Ubangi, we again took to canoes, while the latter part of our voyage to Brazzaville was made by steamer.From Bangi onwards I had the benefit of the company of M. Bonnel de Mezieres and MI.Mercuri, the former from the sultanates of the Bahrel-Ghazal, the latter from the upper Ubangi and the country of Senussi.We everywhere met with the most cordial reception, and from Brazzaville had an easy journey by rail to Mlatadi, where I took ship for France, happy in the thought that my work was now accomplished.
