Excerpt from Sport on the Blue Nile: Or, Six Months of a Sportsman's Life in Central Africa The only drawback at the present time is, that all the game districts, par excellence, have been cut out en masse and reserved for the exclusive use of Government officials, and consequently, sportsmen are obliged to incur much greater expense, and must be prepared to endure daily and unremitting fatigue to insure a successful issue to a sporting expe dition within the small area available for the use of sportsmen, wherein the larger game is really so scarce as to be almost, for practical purposes, non-existent.
