Excerpt from Egypt in Transition I have been informed on good authority that a few years ago an English gentleman paid a visit to a high official of the Sudanese Government resident at Khar tum, and, as a preliminary to a searching interrogatory on a number of points of great public interest, stated that he had just arrived and that his intention was 'to get at the very heart and soul of the people of the Sudan.'
