		By June Shahin had found emphatically in favour of the latter, backed as Mumtaz was by the Swiss muhafiz of Massawa, Werner Munzinger Bey.
		Only in 1873 by which time Mumtaz, promoted to the general-governorate of Khartoum, had been dismissed for alleged peculation and Munzinger had been appointed to the general-governorate of the eastern Sudan, did it become evident that their forecast profits of cotton cultivation were proving to be a chimera.

	Heinrich Brugsch \| My Life and My Travels \| Chapter 5 \| First Persian Journey, Prussian Consul in Cairo
		Although his death could hardly be doubted, nevertheless the deeply afflicted mother wished to leave no means untried, in order to find, if perhaps not the living son, yet to recover his last mortal remains.
		In the service of the Prussian Vice-consulate there was at that time a Wiirttemberger named Kinzelbach who had acquired an esteemed name for himself in the field of geographical discoveries through his journeys in Abyssinia in the company of Werner Munzinger and in the lands lying to the south.
		His stay in Cairo, where he finally carried on a mercantile business, had become repugnant to him through the perversities of fate, and he cherished the urgent wish to set out anew on his wanderings in the region of the East African coastal lands, which at that time had still evaded a closer knowledge.
