On the sixteenth day of October, in the year of our Lord one thousand eight hundred and sixty-nine, I was in Madrid, fresh from the carnage at Valencia. At 10 A.M. Jacopo, at No.- Calle de la Cruz, handed me a telegram: It read, Come to Paris on important business. The telegram was from Mr. James Gordon Bennett, jun., the young manager of the 'New York Herald.'Down came my pictures from the walls of my apartments on the second floor; into my trunks went my books and souvenirs, my clothes were hastily collected, some half washed, some from the clothes-line half dry, and after a couple of hours of hasty hard work my portmanteaus were strapped up and labelled Paris.At 3 P.M. I was on my way, and being obliged to stop at Bayonne a few hours, did not arrive at Paris until the following night. I went straight to the 'Grand Hotel,' and knocked at the door of Mr. Bennett's room.Come in, I heard a voice say. Entering, I found Mr. Bennett in bed. Who are you? he asked.My name is Stanley, I answered.Ah, yes! sit down; I have important business on hand for you.After throwing over his shoulders his robe-de-chambre Mr. Bennett asked, Where do you think Livingstone is?I really do not know, sir.Do you think he is alive?He may be, and he may not be, I answered.Well, I think he is alive, and that he can be found, and I am going to send you to find him.What! said I, do you really think I can find Dr Livingstone? Do you mean me to go to Central Africa?

How I Found Livingstone by Henry Morton Stanley. On March 21, 1871, Henry Morton Stanley set out from the African port of Bagamoyo on what he hoped would be a career-making adventure. The 30-year-old journalist had arrived on the “Dark Continent” at the behest of the New York Herald newspaper, yet he wasn’t chasing any ordinary scoop. He had been placed in charge of a grand expedition to find the explorer David Livingstone, who had vanished in the heart of Africa several years earlier. Stanley, a Welsh-born orphan who had previously fought on both sides of the American Civil War, took to the mission with gusto. Despite never having set foot in Africa before, he assembled a caravan of over 100 porters and struck out into the unknown. To find Wherever Dr Livingstone is to be.
