339 



Before bidding farewell to iny hospitaljle friend and 

 Thursday, — whom I bequeathed to him, when I found 

 the latter was willing, — I made one brief hunting trip 



I FOUND SEVERAL SMALL FISH IN HIS STOMACH. 



in another direction, which introduced me to a curious 

 bat-like animal, with a description of which I may most 

 appropriately close this wandering narrative, which per- 

 haps resembles it, — half-bird and half-mammal.
