Juba

Chambers's Encyclopaedia, Volume 6: Humber to Malta, p. 361

Juba, a great river of eastern Africa, which flows into the Indian Ocean at about 0° 5' S. lat., and whose mouth marks the northern boundary of the coast placed under British control by the agreement with Germany in 1890. The river has been explored to beyond 3° N. lat., and Cecchi identifies the Umo as its upper waters; so that it probably takes its rise in the same mountains as the feeders of the Nile.
