Travelers from history and their famous sea voyages

NOTE 1.–Though the _Lake_ of Lob or Lop appears on all our maps, from
Chinese authority, the latter does not seem to have supplied information
as to a town so called. We have, however, indications of the existence of
such a place, both mediaeval and recent. The History of Mirza Haidar,
called the Trkh-i-Rashd? already referred to, in describing the Great
Basin of Eastern Turkestan, says: ‘Formerly there were several large
cities in this plain; the names of two have survived–_Lob_ and _Kank_,
but of the rest there is no trace or tradition; all is buried under the
sand.’ [Forsyth (_J. R. G. S._ XLVII. 1877, p. 5) says that he thinks that
this Kank is probably the Katak mentioned by Mirza Haidar.–H. C.] In
another place the same history says that a boy heir of the house of
Chaghatai, to save him from a usurper, was sent away to Srgh Uighr and
_Lob-Kank_, far in the East. Again, in the short notices of the cities of
Turkestan which Mr. Wathen collected at Bombay from pilgrims of those
regions on their way to Mecca, we find the following: ‘_Lopp_.–Lopp is
situated at a great distance from Yarkand. The inhabitants are principally
Chinese; but a few Uzbeks reside there. Lopp is remarkable for a
salt-water lake in its vicinity.’ Johnson, speaking of a road from Tibet
into Khotan, says: ‘This route … leads not only to Ilchi and Yarkand, but
also vi?_Lob_ to the large and important city of Karashahr.’ And among the
routes attached to Mr. Johnson”s original Report, we have:–

Gregory reigned barely four years, dying at Arezzo 10th January, 1276. His
character stood high to the last, and some of the Northern Martyrologies
enrolled him among the saints, but there has never been canonisation by
Rome. The people of Arezzo used to celebrate his anniversary with
torch-light gatherings at his tomb, and plenty of miracles were alleged to
have occurred there. The tomb still stands in the Duomo at Arezzo, a
handsome work by Margaritone, an artist in all branches, who was the Pope”s
contemporary. There is an engraving of it in _Gonnelli, Mon. Sepolc. di
Toscana_.

such friendless and unhappy circumstances as those in which he left
Portugal
This new disappointment, bitter though it was, did not find Columbus in
such friendless and unhappy circumstances as those in which he left
Portugal. He had important friends now, who were willing and anxious to
help him, and among them was one to whom he turned, in his profound
depression, for religious and friendly consolation. This was Diego de
DEA, prior of the Dominican convent of San Estevan at Salamanca, who was
also professor of theology in the university there and tutor to the young
Prince Juan. Of all those who came in contact with Columbus at this time
this man seems to have understood him best, and to have realised where
his difficulty lay. Like many others who are consumed with a burning
idea Columbus was very probably at this time in danger of becoming
possessed with it like a monomaniac; and his new friends saw that if he
were to make any impression upon the conservative learning of the time to
which a decision in such matters was always referred he must have some
opportunity for friendly discussion with learned men who were not
inimical to him, and who were not in the position of judges examining a
man arraigned before them and pleading for benefits.

Scotland, that poor and almost naked beggars, when _stones_ were given
them as alms at the church doors, went away quite delighted; for stones of
that kind were imbued either with brimstone or with some oily matter, so
that they could be burnt instead of wood, of which the country was
destitute
Aeneas Sylvius relates as a miracle that took place before his eyes in
Scotland, that poor and almost naked beggars, when _stones_ were given
them as alms at the church doors, went away quite delighted; for stones of
that kind were imbued either with brimstone or with some oily matter, so
that they could be burnt instead of wood, of which the country was
destitute. (Quoted by _Jos. Robertson, Statuta Eccles. Scotic._ I. xciii.)

NOTE 2.–The mention of the King of England appears for the first time in
Pauthier”s text. Probably we shall never know if the communication reached
him. But we have the record of several embassies in preceding and
subsequent years from the Mongol Khans of Persia to the Kings of England;
all with the view of obtaining co-operation in attack on the Egyptian
Sultan. Such messages came from bka in 1277; from Arghn in 1289 and
1291; from Ghzn in 1302; from Oljaitu in 1307. (See _Rmusat_ in _Mm.
de l”Acad._ VII.)

that it has cured many persons threatened with consumption
Kumiz keeps long; it is wonderfully tonic and nutritious, and it is said
that it has cured many persons threatened with consumption. The tribes
using it are said to be remarkably free from pulmonary disease; and indeed
I understand there is a regular _Galactopathic_ establishment somewhere in
the province of Orenburg for treating pulmonary patients with Kumiz diet.
