THE GUASO NYERO 373 



Twice I rounded up the herd just as once in the Yellow- 

 stone Park I rounded up a herd of wapiti for John Bur- 

 roughs to look at and three times I cut out of the herd a 

 big animal, which, however, in each case, proved to be a 

 cow. There were no big bulls, only cows and young stock; 

 but I enjoyed the gallop. 



From Neri we marched through mist and rain across 

 the cold Aberdare table-lands, and in the forenoon of 

 October 20 we saw from the top of the second Aberdare 

 escarpment the blue waters of beautiful Lake Naivasha. 

 On the next day we reached Nairobi.
