Abstract
THE death of Sir H. M. Stanley on Tuesday, at sixty-three years of age, deprives the world of a man of action, and geography of one of its greatest pioneer explorers. It can truly be said that he changed the map of Africa by the results of his expeditions, and his picturesque narratives created public interest in the problems of African exploration.
