Abstract

The article contains travel notes about the nature of the Congo and the life of the Negroes inhabiting it. Information about sleeping sickness (Trypanozomiasis humana), due to circumstances, is limited to a description of the fly Glossina palpalis (carrier of infection) and a list of symptoms that the author observed with this disease in his random patients.
