Village of Beho Beho, where Mr. Keith Johnston died, East Central Africa, 1880. The lamented death of this gentleman, on June 28 last year, at Beho-Beho, in East Central Africa, on the journey from the seaport of Dar-es-Salaam towards Lake Nyassa, has been related in our Journal...Mr. William Beardall, the engineer who is now engaged in constructing the road which is being made there at the expense of Sir T. Fowell Buxton, Bart. and of Mr. W. Mackinnon, to open the country for beneficial commerce instead of the slave trade, visited the spot in December last, six months after Mr. Johnston's death, writes: Beho-Beho is said to contain thirteen small villages. The people are Wakhutu; the villages lie near the foot of two high hills. We passed three villages, and then reached the one in which Mr. Keith Johnston died. Here I stayed all the following day. The grass hut built for Mr. Johnston, and in which he died, is still standing'. Alexander Keith Johnston led a Royal Geographical Society expedition to Lake Nyasa and Lake Tanganyika. After only six weeks, he died from malaria and dysentery in the village of Beho Beho (now in Tanzania). From Illustrated London News, 1880.
