December 18th we reached the Albert
Nyanza river.
We camped half mile from the lake.
Nv couriers from Zanzibar evidently had
not arrived or Emin Pasha would have
arrived al the southeastern shore of the
lake Ny boat was one hundred miles
distant. and there was no tree in sight
large enough TO make canoe.
We had used nearly all our
remaining ammunition in the
five DAYS fighting on the plain, and
long fight must exhaust our stock. There
was no feasible plan except 10 retreat 10
lbiriyi, build fort and send for stores
and ammunition, sending the boat 20
search for Emin This plan, after 70 long
discussion, we resolved upon. On the
18th we marched TO kayali. ON the west
side of the lake. We resumed the march
by night, and. by 10 \. VI. of the 10Th,
We had gained the crest OF the plateau,
the natives following us until they be-
came tired
On January 1th we were in lbiriyi
again. Lieutenant Stairs being sent tO

eleven men were brought into the port

On returning here we lost only three

f left at Yainbuya only II remain, and

shows that despite the suherings on the
