  During 
  the 
  course 
  of 
  the 
  expedition 
  a 
  series 
  of

  were 
  

   given 
  at 
  station 
  WRC 
  through 
  arrangement 
  by 
  A. 
  H. 
  Clark 
  so 
  that 
  

   the 
  public 
  was 
  kept 
  informed 
  on 
  the 
  progress 
  of 
  the 
  party. 
  

  

  The 
  expedition 
  is

  and

  of 
  Calcutta

  of 
  animals
