FINDING OF EMIN PASHA'S WILL Tie story of the Elll.n Pasha Relief Expedition is mow somewhat ancieri., lustory, but until two }ears tgo the ihteiest in it was in a measure kept up by he news iviich reached us from tine to time of the wanderings and doings of this eccentric Pasha. It will be remembered that after his re cue and arrival it the coast lie relts.ed to return to Egypt to render sccount of his stewardthip to the Klie ive, his nester. Throwing over the servxe at tl,e Effendina, erVered that of the Gerinna, ',tom he in turn ieserted, and retired into the Great Forest in search A birds, butterflies, bugs, and beetles, and mans other things. For two years, regularly every few weeks, news reached us of his death, but about two yearf ago, however, we received authentic news of his murder by the Arab chief Kilionge, who in turn met his fate at the bands of the redoubtable ivory-hunting Lothaire. Baron Dhania, a Belgdin officer, found many of the Pasha's ellects scattered about Kibonge's country, but it mpears that Emma will was never found. This to much litigation and quarrelling among Emin'a "sisters, and cousins, and aunts," who, rumour says, have bees trying to wrest a portion of his proi erty from the rightful heir, the little Panicle, his daughter, who is now being educated in German . Mr. fil,unteney-Jephson, however, who was with Emin throughout the rebellion in Equatoria, having heard this report. suddenly remembered that he had a will of Endo Pashi in his possession. and has just sent a cop, nf it to the Foreign Office in Berlin. In October, 1888, he end Emin were prisoners in the hands of the rebellious soldiers at the at ,tion of on the White Nile, and were Ling under sentence of death hi hanging. Thinking that his cud was near, Emin made his will, leaving everything he had to his only child, This will, which was wit. no-lied by the chiefs of the rebel officers, was handed by Emin to Mr. Mounteney.Jei hewn on the understanding that, should he be able to escape, he should take the child Fonda with him to Mr. Stanley's camp. They all, as it turned out, reached the coast in safety, and Mr. Isphson, naturally : sup oiling that Emin, ',gore returning to the interior, had executed another avid, regarded the will in his possession, which Was made in DAIS, merely as an inteies•ing document, without any legal value. Now, however, that he has heard the rumour that no will has yet been found, he has forwarded a copy of it to the German authorities, and it is to be hoped that the little Farida, who is now about 12 years old, will come into her own without any further trouble. Emin's property, If the salary due to him has been paid up, should now be worth from £B.OOO to £l,
