BPLDC no.: 08_04_000217 Page Title: Donkey Boy waiting while Tourist inspects Temple. Collection: William Vaughn Tupper Scrapbook Collection Album: On the Nile. Cairo to Luxor. Call no.: 4098B.104 v31 (p.31) Creator: Tupper, William Vaughn Photographer: Adelphoi Zangaki (Firm) Genre: Scrapbooks; Albumen prints Extent: 1 photographic print mounted on page : albumen ; page 33 x 39 cm. Description: Scrapbook page contains one photograph of a little boy sleeping with a donkey outside of a temple. The annotations included on this page describe Tuppers experience with so called donkey boys of Egypt. Transcription: These boys seem to know a little of every European language and are accustomed to tell one that the donkey bears a name suggestive of his home. My donkey at Cairo was named Yankee Doodle, Rosa Neal, at Karnak it was Kalamazoo. Their grammar is sometimes defective for instance the remark of boy at Luxor. "Luce good donkey, why his mother my wife not come?" Their treatment of their beast is justified only by the Arab proverb "The stick came down from heaven!"- they are hardy and will run sometimes 17-20 miles.
