Chap. V. ILL EFFECTS OF FORCED MARCHING. IIP. 



The forced marches, exposure and privations of this 

 arduous journey, laid me up for several days. I 

 suffered much from a pain in the left side in the 

 neighbourhood of the heart, which was accompanied 

 with fever, and distressed me much. I had also 

 rheumatic pains in my shoulder. My faithfLd Ma- 

 condai also had a sHght attack of fever, which, 

 however, gave way to a few doses of quinine. 



I made also another excursion about this time, to 

 my friend the chief Adingo^ whose village is situated 

 at the foot of the Igoumbi Andele mountains, south 

 of Olenda. As a description of this neighbourhood 

 is given in ' Equatorial Africa,' it is unnecessary here 

 to repeat further details of this excursion. I need 

 only say that I have now named the fine .wooded 

 peaks of Igoumbi Andele after my much respected 

 friend Professor Owen.
