Du Chaillu describes the costume of the Court of King Diops in the following manner : —' The King wore a dress-coat —and nothing else; his second minister wore a shirt without Bleeves—and nothing else; his second minister wore a necktie—and nothing else; the third was adorned with a hat —and nothing else; but the Queen varied the fashion by wearing an umbrella—and nothing else.'
