Hi Colin,

An excellent bit of info, really shows the extent of this trade and of course as you say this is before the most infamous period in the British involvement in the Sudan when interest spiked in all things Madhist.

Sounds as though they were making good money as well! 5 pounds sterling in 1885 was around 590 today accounting for inflation!
