In these lectures, Livingstone shared his experiences and observations from his travels in southern Africa, including his encounters with the local people and his efforts to spread Christianity and end the slave trade. The lectures were well-received and helped to raise awareness about Livingstone's work and the need for increased exploration and missionary efforts in Africa.

  • To safeguard the future of the ivory trade Mr. Maskeli suggests that ivory should be made a Govern¬ ment monopoly in all our Colonial possessions, and that, at least, steps should be taken to enforce the regulations of the international agreement already referred to
  • How long it would be before these stores were exhausted it was impossible to tell, but they might give out at any moment. Should they do so, the ivory trade would receive a very severe shock, and the slaughter of elephants, which even now threatened to drive these valuable animals to extinction, would become even more extensive

      Additionally, they disregard the fact that selling slaves is something that Abyssinians often refrain from doing for religious reasons. However, in other ways, they appear to follow all the religious rituals and practices of their neighbours and proclaim their orthodoxy with similar vigour. I'd like to know that when Christianity was first given to them, they flatly denied ever having been pagan.

      The invasion of Galla.At this time, Shoa, which had occasionally been a part of the old Abyssinian empire and occasionally held a position resembling that of an independent kingdom, was entirely ruled by Muslims, with the exception of a few of the most remote areas where small groups of Christians had sought refuge. And the invasion of the Galla came next.
  • Abyssinia was converted to Christianity in A.D. 330, vide page 55. It is not, however, till the 15th century that the course of Early Abyssinian history becomes more clear, and it was in this European century that Abyssinia first came into contact with outside !

      According to page 55, Abyssinia adopted Christianity in the year 330. The trajectory of Early Abyssinian history, however, does not become more obvious until the 15th century, and it was during this European century that Abyssinia first came into contact with the outside world.

      This sentence provides a detailed account of the author's travels, including the various places he visited in Africa and Asia. The author indicates that he and his party traveled as far south as Mozambique, and visited many places of importance on the mainland between Eas Hafun and Mozambique, as well as the islands of Pemba, Zanzibar, and Monfia. After leaving Mozambique, the author and his party crossed over to Madagascar, where they visited several places, including Majunga, Nossi Beh, Mayotta, and Johanna. They then returned to the African mainland, passing through Kilwa-Kavinja on their way back to Zanzibar, where they helped to start Cameron's expedition. From Zanzibar, they went on to Mombasa, where they visited several Missionary stations, including Eibe and Kissoludini, as well as the towns of Lamoo and Eas Hafun. The author and his party then traveled across the Indian Ocean to Maculla, Shehur, Muscat, Kurachee, and Bombay, before returning to Europe. The level of detail in this sentence suggests that the author is attempting to provide a comprehensive account of his travels, possibly for the purpose of documenting his experiences or sharing them with others.

      This sentence describes the knowledge of caravan routes in the region as described by General Eigby, Captain Burton, and others. The author also adds that traders who had come from the Lake Eegion informed Dr. Hildebrand that small caravans annually traverse the route to the Lake Eegion, carrying cotton manufactures, brass wire, and beads. The mention of General Eigby and Captain Burton implies that there have been previous accounts of caravan routes in the region. Dr. Hildebrand's encounter with traders who had come from the Lake Eegion suggests that the information presented is current and reliable. The use of the word "assured" implies that the author is confident in the veracity of Dr. Hildebrand's account. The description of goods carried by the small caravans provides insight into the trade practices of the region.

      This sentence expresses the hope of an unknown person that his countrymen in India would benefit from what had been done, even those who were connected to slavery by Sir Bartle Frere. The use of the word "hoped" indicates a desire for a positive outcome. The phrase "what had been done" is vague, but may refer to previous actions or initiatives. The mention of "countrymen in India" implies that the author is referring to people of Indian origin or descent. The reference to "even those who were connected to slavery by Sir Bartle Frere" suggests that there may have been individuals who were involved in or benefited from the slave trade. Sir Bartle Frere was a British colonial administrator who served in India and Africa during the 19th century. The use of the word "even" suggests that the author is aware that this connection to slavery might make it harder for these individuals to benefit from the actions being taken.
