too THE EAST AFRICAN RAILROAD 



There are other creatures to be seen, the sHnking and snapping 

 jackal, red and silver of hue, and the dirt-colored, uncouth wart-hog, 

 with its bristled hide and erect tail. Lions and leopards are also vis- 

 ible, hanging about on the skirts of the browsing herds, seeking prey, 

 no doubt, yet causing no seeming tremors of fear in the grazing herds. 



In fact, the spectacle visible from our elevated point of observa- 

 tion is one to be seen nowhere else upon the earth, and one upon which 

 the party of hunters and nature lovers in whose path we are moving, 

 must have gazed upon with the deepest interest and delight.
