Why Rhodes Went to Africa

James E. Crowther, in World Outlook.
 Why did I come to Africa? Well, they will tell you that I came out on account of my health, or from a love of ad- venture-and to some extent that may be true. But the real fact is that 1 could no longer stand the eternal cold mutton
 The answer is characteristic of the man. A young chap, who, three years after receiving his college degree could pick up an empire 160 times the size of Rhode Island and set it as a jewel in the British crown was not likely to be content with any review of reviews in his diet Men with empires in their brain ->do not usually have cold mutton in their stomach.
 But the fact remains that Cecil John Rhodes went to South Africa to battle for his life against the bug battalions of tuberculosis that had invaded his lungs. Not six months to live.' Such was the verdict that Rhodes, in after years, read opposite his name in the doctors faded memorandum book.
