Their description of the east shore of the M'wootan N'zige was as follows: Geographical Information: "South of Unyoro is a country Kabboya; " " Kabboyu " " Tambooki; " " Tambooki " " M'Pororo; " " M'Pororo " " Ruanda; " " Ruanda " " Baroondi; " " Baroondi " " Chibbogora; " " Chibbogora " " Watuta; " " Watuta " " Manchoonda;"
Apparently highly amused with our wretched appearance, he continued, "So you have been to the M'wootan N'zige! Well, you don't look much the better for it; why, I should not have known you! ha, ha, ha!"
As the Khedive's expedition under Colonel Gordon will shortly have the advantage of a steamer on the Albert Lake or M'wootan N'zige, the question of a connection between the two lakes will be definitely settled. When that question shall have been resolved, geographers must turn their attention to the great river Sobat, which is by far the most important affluent of the Nile.
"This looks as though the Tanganyika and the M'wootan N'zige were only one vast lake bearing different names according to the localities through which it passes." I have extracted this from my journal, as it was written at the moment that the information was given.
"The Victoria N'yanza is called by two names, 'Sessy' or 'Kurewe. Although large, it is small in comparison with the M'wootan N'zige" There was no news of Livingstone; but, according to my request from Masindi, M'tese had sent everywhere in search of him, and he had forwarded my two letters addressed to him in different directions.

All the chiefs declared that the M'wootan N'zige extends beyond Karagwe, and that it exceeds the Victoria N'yanza in size. The native name, in Unyoro, for the Victoria N'yanza is simply N'yanza, and for the White Nile, Masaba. "There is a country called Barega on the Albert N'yanza, south-west of Uganda, governed by a powerful king whose people are armed with bows, and arrows that are feathered.
