152 THE BOOK OF TRAVELS Being equipped with an overcoat, a carpet-bag, a cane, and my companion's big black vial of medicament, and, furthermore, being so suddenly hoisted up, I was rather top-heavy. My Arab steed soon began to stumble awfully, and for awhile I thought I was doomed. I yelled " Gee hup !" and " Wope sar !" and he squealed and seemed to intimate that I was choking him to death, but at last, glory be to Allah ! we floundered safely to land. Our peppered-visaged guide, who hitherto... had had as much as he could do in bawling and swearing and throwing people overboard, here resumed control of us ; and working us dexterously through the custom-house soon had us in the Royal Victoria Hotel, where he intro- duced us to Mr. Martin, the landlord — a real, simon-pure African, as pure as any in our cornfields. We shook Mr. Martin's hands most warmly, and were by him heartily welcomed to Africa, and straightway furnished with lunch — at which repast we consumed Mr. Martin's whole supply of sardines, comprising three-fourths of a box.
