Abstract
MR. SCOTT ELLIOT has obtained a grant from the Government Grant Committee of the Royal Society for the purpose of exploring Uganda. We understand that his intention is to start from Mombassa and proceed direct to Lake Victoria Nyanza. After a short stay near the lake Mr. Scott Elliot hopes to leave for Ruwenzari, and to spend as long a time as his funds permit in exploring the botany, geology, and natural history of this mountain chain. Both Dr. Stuhlman and Dr. Baumann have been very lately in this neighbourhood, but still something of interest may be expected from Mr. Elliot's exploration.
