Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility. Scription of the latest addition to the British Empire, except for the sake of affording me the opportunity of thanking those who have so kindly assisted to illus trate it. I am indebted to the Rt. Hon. Sir Geo. Goldie for permission to use several photographs taken in connection with the work of the Royal Niger Company, also to Dr. W. H.
