To Waday the road from the Tibboo Borgoo is thus: South-east by south. Borgoo to Kermedy 2 days, a well. Kermedy to Bokalia 2 days, a well. Bokalia to Boushasheem 2 days, a large lake during the rainy season. Boushasheem to Kharma 2 days, a well. South. Kharma to Sobboo 2 days, a town of Tibboo. Sobboo to Emharaije 1 day, a town in Waday. Emharaije to Kermedy 2 days, a town. Kermedy to Wara 2 hours. This is the principal town of Waday, and is the residence of the Sultan. My informer had never seen Fittre, but described it as a large lake, full of fish, which is dried and salted, and sent to great distances for sale. He did not know of any river communicating with it. Wara to Fittre 5 or 6 days south. to Muddago 5 days south-west. to Bahr el Ghazal 7 days north-west. to Kaugha 6, 7, or 8 days south-west. Muddago is the name of some very high mountains of black stone. Battali, which is laid down as a river, was the bed of an immense stream, now dried up entirely. He had himself seen in it large skeletons of fish and animals, shells, and trunks of trees, as in Bahr el Ghazal, from which it is north-west 5 days, and to which, perhaps, it was once attached. It still retains its name Bahr or river. He said, that from Gatrone to Wara there was not a river, or even a rivulet of any importance, except in the rainy season, when the torrents form themselves temporary beds in the Wadeys. The slaves brought from Waday are procured from Kooka, or Kaugha, Kola, Tama, Runga, and various petty states in their vicinity. The Tibboo have a particular breed of sheep and goats here, of the same race as those of Bornou and Soudan. The tails of the sheep are in some so long as to touch the ground, and are very taper. These animals are distinguished from the other species, by being called Majiggri; they are hairy, and generally of a dark colour. The goats are elegant little creatures, and have hair as sleek and shining as that of a horse. They are plentiful, and tolerably cheap. December 31st. Thermometer 4°. I was unable all yesterday to procure one dollar’s worth of corn, owing to its extreme scarcity; and even Gaphooly, or Indian wheat, bore the same price as corn at Morzouk.
