Sir,
 With reference to the notes of Sir Alison Russell, K.C., on Sailing on Victoria
Nyanza in 1908 in Vol. VI No. 4. of your Journal, he mentions the yacht
"Egypt".
 This yacht was bought from the Government Printer by a European Auc-
tioneer in Jinja and used for a number of years for fishing in Napoleon Gulf.
The yacht later passed to Yusofu Luzige, a Muganda.
 The lead keel was stripped and sold in the Indian Bazaar. The "Egypt" bones.
went to rest on the Jinja side of the old Jinja Bugungu Ferry.



 I am, Sir,
 Yours faithfully,
 C.W. CHORLEY.
