To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
It was then a perfect garden, thickly populated, and producing all that man could desire. The villages were numerous; groves of plan- tains fringed the steep cliffs on the river's bank; and the natives were neatly dressed in the bark cloth of the country. The scene has changed ! All is wilderness ! The population has fled ! Not a village is to be seen ! This is the certain result of the settlement of Khartoum traders. They kidnap the women and children for slaves, and plunder and destroy wherev...er they set their foot. ' Baker found that Abou Saood had given no intimation to his agent Suleiman of the expira- tion of his contract. The new king, successor to Kamrasi, 120 FAMOUS TRAVELLERS. was Kabba Rega, to whom Baker made known his mission, and sent him many substantial presents. An official message was also sent to Suleiman, telling him i that sixteen days hence the contract would expire, and that he and all his people must be ready to evacuate the country and return to Khartoum on that day.
