Richard Lander had previously served with Clapperton on the latter’s second and last expedition into the African interior, his account of which was published in two volumes in 1830. That year Lander, together with his brother John, undertook an expedition to explore the course and termination of the Niger River. They travelled from Cape Coast Castle to Accra, Bogádry, Boussa (where Mungo Park was killed), and finally Yaoorie, a further one hundred miles upstream. Returning to Boussa, they began their descent of the river in canoes. During the journey they were robbed and mistreated by natives, and at Eboe (Ibo) were held for ransom by the King. Eventually they reached the mouth of the Niger, accomplishing their mission, and arrived back in England in July of 1831. Richard was awarded a gold medal, and John Murray, the publisher of the first edition, offered the brothers one thousand guineas for their journals, which were edited for publication by Lieut. Alexander Bridport Becher. cfGay 2777.…
