* The English mile is intended ; the traveller having, before he quitted Sierra- 
Leone, acquired the habit of estimating his march, in a given time, according to 
a space measured in English miles. 
All the other details of the route, and those which relate to the accidents 
of the soil, are noted in the journal of the travels to which it will be necessary 
to have recourse in order fully to understand the circumstances of the march.
