Description	Slavers Raiding a Village on the Aruwimi River
Details	Arab slavers raiding a village beside the Aruwimi River, as seen from the Yambuya Camp occupied by Sir Henry Morton Stanley's Emin Pasha Relief Expedition, 1888. Emin Pasha (1840-1892), the German doctor, explorer, linguist and Governor of the Egyptian Equatorial Province had retreated to Wadelai, near Lake Albert, with 10,000 followers during the Mahdi Rising.
