Légende

At the mouth of the Rusizi, Lake Tanganyika, 1872. Stanley and Livingtone during '...their cruise in a canoe to the north end of Lake Tanganyika and the mouth of the Rusizi which they proved to flow into the lake, not out of it - solving an important geographical problem. This cruise occupied twenty-eight days. About the end of December Livingstone and Stanley set forth together from Ujiji, to go to Unyanyembe, where they were to part. They reached that place on Feb. 18, and stayed there in company till March 14. Mr. Stanley then bade farewell to the illustrious man whose distressed solitude he had been enabled to relieve. We are sure that all readers of this volume will congratulate him upon his performance of such a task'. Illustration from "How I Found Livingstone; Travels, Adventures, and Discoveries in Central Africa; Including Four Months' Residence with Dr. Livingstone;" by Henry M. Stanley, Travelling Correspondent of the New York Herald. Published in "Illustrated London News", 1872.
