THAMIN, AND THEIR QUEST 



dinner (with hunger for the sauce) in which the most 

 tasty parts of thamin figured in ways known to our 

 native cook, with what contentment one settled into a 

 long chair and enjoyed the after-dinner cheroot! making 

 fresh plans for the morrow, and lazily admiring the beauty 

 of the tropical night. It was all so pleasant, that when 

 the end came we were unfeignedly sorry. 



To Veterinary-Captain Evans my best thanks are due 

 for permission to refer to his paper on "Thamin" in the 

 records of the Bombay Natural History Society.
