Governor General of the Sudan Wingate and his wife, Catherine Leslie Rundle Wingate, were away and regret missing Mrs. Alexander and her party in Khartoum. Wingate shares in Theodore Roosevelt’s expression of friendship and hopes to see him again. He is impressed with the interesting problems he faces in Sudan’s Southern Provinces. The copy of African Game Trails has yet to arrive. Wingate will investigate the matter as he would be pleased to own a book by Roosevelt.
