 Birmingham, and next to it is the Spring double grip of 

 Messrs. Keilly and Co., both of whom I may say may be

The rifles should be fitted in small, handy, solid leather 

 cases, unincumbered by much apparatus, or by space for 

 cartridges. The latter should be soldered up in tin cases, to 

 hold two hundred and fifty each, and should be carried un- 

 loaded until about to take the field. 



I have added in Appendices some information which may 

 be useful to travellers in the region I have thus attempted to 

 describe.
