On the following morning the fever had yielded to quinine, and we were
enabled to receive a round of visits –the governor and suite, Elias
Bey, the doctor and a friend, and, lastly, Malem Georgis, an elderly
Greek merchant, who, with great hospitality, insisted upon our quitting
the sultry tent and sharing his own roof. We therefore became his guests
in a most comfortable house for some days. Here we discharged our
camels, as our Turk, Hadji Achmet”s, service ended at this point, and
proceeded to start afresh for the Nile tributaries of Abyssinia.
