Ujiji, in Rumanyika's time, was the only mart for merchandise in the country.

Garaganza or Galaganza has most trade and influence now.

(_14th Sept., 1868._) Okara is the name by which Victoria Nyanza is known on the eastern side, and an arm of it, called Kavirondo, is about forty miles broad.
Lake Baringo is a distinct body of water, some fifty miles broad, and giving off a river called Ngardabash, which flows eastwards into the Somauli country.

Lake Naibash is more to the east than Kavirondo, and about fifty miles broad too: it gives off the River Kidete, which is supposed to flow into Lufu.

It is south-east of Kavirondo; and Kilimanjaro can be seen from its shores; in the south-east Okara, Naibash and Baringo seem to have been run by Speke into one Lake.
Okara, in the south, is full of large islands, and has but little water between them; that little is encumbered with aquatic vegetation called "Tikatika," on which, as in lakelet Gumadona, a man can walk.
Waterlilies and duckweed are not the chief part of this floating mass.
In the north Okara is large.
