    From Dar Fungaro to Dar-el-abid-es-Sultan-Fûr                    2½

    From the latter to Dar-el-Nahâs                                  8½

      _Rocky road, earth where visible is red._

  The people wear a slight covering over the parts of
  generation, in other respects are quite naked.

    From Bahr Taisha to Bahr-el-abiad                   }        {   4½

  The former falls into the latter at a place called
  _Tenderni_, which is peopled by idolaters, called
  _Cusni_. This spot is full of palm trees, and another
  kind of tree, which by description would seem to be
  the cocoa.

  Here it is seen that the distance between Cobbé and
  the copper mine is 23½ days, direction nearly S. and
  that the Bahr-el-abiad is 7½ days distant from that
  place, direction generally E.
