240 JIN ABU FINDS 



as he crossed in front of me, and dropped him dead. 



Meantime Jin had disappeared in the jungle, 

 but shortly afterwards turned up very much 

 winded and very grateful. 



I found a very slight wound over the temple 

 where Jin's ball had hit. Both of my 12-bore bul- 

 lets had gone home, and my 50 went clean through 

 the elephant's head, in one ear and out the other 

 side of the temple. The elephant measured nine 

 feet four inches at the shoulder, with tusks eighteen 

 inches in length. 



It was not a record trophy, but I was made 

 happy by getting it ; and so was Jin Abu.
