grass plain many days' journey across, with a lake in 

 the middle, swarming with game and lions; the Ssale, 

 a series of bench plateaus said to be stocked with black- 

 maned Hons beside the other game; some big volcanoes 

 (some of which we spied forty miles away) with forests 

 and meadows and elephants in the craters; and so on. 

 All this remains to be looked over and reported on. 

 As the waterholes are found, the possibihties of reach- 

 ing out farther will be extended. We have really only 

 made the roughest of rough sketches. The many 

 sportsmen who will follow us must fill in the picture.
