| Title | Letter from Sir David Bruce, Entebbe, Uganda, to Sir Michael Foster of the Malaria Committee |
| Date | 25 March 1903 |
| Description | Describes his journey to Mombasa. Notes that 'little has been done by Castellani' -- attributes this to Castellani working himself into illness on receipt of a telegram 'containing a report of Dr Manson's after-dinner speech at Balfour's farewell dinner' with reference to his research results -- suggests that he and Low be encouraged to furnish full report as soon as they return to England. Describes some 'eccentric' behavior on the part of C Christy, eg throwing eggs at a chief and kicking a goat to death -- suggests that he 'evidently belongs to the old militant type of explorer'. p40. |
