A SUMMER IN HIGH ASIA. 



but pleasant stay with Captain Godfrey, who was 

 installed in the Residency, and, having packed up 

 my trophies, which had been carefully preserved by 

 one Mahadoo, skin-curer of Srinagar, and bid fare- 

 well to all the followers who had accompanied me 

 in my rambles amongst the snowy peaks of Baltistan 

 and stony plains of Thibet, I started down to Rawal 

 Pindi. This part of my journey I accomplished in 

 three days, doing the drive from Baramulla (over 

 two hundred miles) in two days. Thence to 

 Bombay, where I caught the good ship Caledonia, 

 of the P. and O., whose first voyage it was, and 

 made a passage home that easily broke the 

 (then) record. 



And thus ended my very pleasant ramble through 

 " High Asia/'
