Stanley survived disease and encounters withℓdangerous wildlife,ℓeventually finding Livingstone, who had been presumed dead, in Ujiji, on the banks of Lake Tanganyika.ℓStanley's expedition was sponsored by the New York Herald andℓmade him instantlyℓfamous, especiallyℓfor delivering theℓline, "Dr. Livingstone, I presume?" Livingstone supposedly responded, "Yes. I feel thankful that I am here to welcome you."ℓStanley went on to become an African explorer in his own right, especially inℓthe Congo, which he claimed on behalf of the Belgium King Leopold II. |
