About this book
The River of Darkness, subtitled Or, Under Africa, is by William Murray Graydon. Guy appears crying out in hoarse tones that he has been robbed, captain, treacherously robbed, and that documents of the greatest importance have been stolen from his cabin. Guy says a robbery has been committed and that the articles stolen are despatches for the governor of Zaila, intrusted to him for delivery. The captain stops, stoops down and pulls a bunch of papers from under the lowest step, and Guy cries out that they are the stolen despatches and that the seals have been broken.
Guy cries "Into the cavern, all of you" and says the Abyssinians are coming in force and the firing has attracted them to the spot. The scene is a hot and sultry afternoon in March, such a March as only tropical Africa knows, at the German military station of New Potsdam, on the left bank of the river Juba.
