Ewart Grogan, a 24-year-old Cambridge University student, took a break from his STUDIES (STUDY) early in 1898 and left England on a walking holiday. But this was no ordinary holiday. HeDID NOT RETURN (NOT RETURN) until almost two years later. Grogan wanted to impress the father of his fiancee, Gertrude. He PLANNED (PLAN) to walk all the way through Africa, from south to north, with his friend. At the Dinka swampland in south Sudan, his friend turned back. But Grogan continued. There WERE (BE) no maps - all Grogan had was a compass to tell HIM (HE) which way was north. He became very ill from mosquito bites and some of his MEN (MAN) died from fever. Finally, with the help of Dinka people, and twenty months and eleven thousand kilometres after LEAVING (LEAVE) Cape Town in South Africa, Grogan walked into Cairo, Egypt. Back in England, Grogan married Gertrude and returned to Africa to do many MORE REMARKABLE(REMARKABLE) things. He even became theFIRST (ONE) person to fly from Cairo to Cape Town - his return trip.
