A passage from the book... "We don't want to stay long in this place.""I don't think we do, sir," was the reply."The sooner we leave it, the better.""That is so," said Harry; "I quite agree with you. I wonder how white men manage to live here at all."This conversation occurred at Bonny, a trading station on one of the mouths of the river Niger in Western Africa. In former times Bonny was a famous resort for slave traders, and great numbers of slaves were sent from that place to North and South America. In addition to slave trading, there was considerable dealing in ivory, palm oils, and other African products. Trade is not as prosperous at Bonny nowadays as it was in the slave-dealing times, but there is a fair amount of commerce and the commissions of the factors and agents are very large. Bonny stands in a region of swamps, and the climate exhales at all times of the year pestilential vapors which are not at all suited to the white man. Most of the white residents live on board old hulks which are moored to the bank of the river, and they find these hulks less unhealthy 12than houses off shore, for the reason that they are less exposed to the vapors of the ground.
