You will be able to pick one up at Dongola.

I hear that fugitives are constantly coming in there, and some of them are sure to be mounted.

You might as well get an Egyptian one; in the first place because it is a good deal cheaper, and in the second because our English saddles are made for bigger horses.

You need not mind much about the appearance of your animal.
