Reaches the River Lopoposi.
Arrives at Chitunkue's.

Terrible marching.

The Doctor is borne through the flooded country.
_1st November, 1872._--We hear that an eruption of Babemba, on the Baulungu, destroyed all the food.

We tried to buy food here, but everything is hidden in the mountains, so we have to wait to-day till they fetch it.

If in time, we shall make an afternoon's march.
