The occupants experienced terrible hnrships. They had to hew forest trees to make a raft for the crossing of the Niger. At one point they were compelled to take the car to pieces and swim across the river with the parts. They were attacked by rhinoceroses on' the way.

They still have the most difficult part of the journey to accomplish, through the sands of the Sudan and across Abyssinia to the shores of the Red Sea.
