Book excerpt: Relates to the conversation Glave had with Herbert Ward, traveler, artist and member of the Rear Guard, relating to the Rear Guard and Major Barttelot's conduct. "I, not having been an officer of that expedition, could say nothing from personal experience, but the spirit of Ward's conversation at all times, condemned Major Barttelot's mismanagement at Yambuya-- his harsh inhuman treatment of the Zanzibaris & Soudanes, who were lashed up and flogged for the feeblest offence, his inconsistent, high-handed and tactless dealings with Tippu Tib & his tyrannical behavior to the other white officers of the Rear Column were often mentioned."
