Further Ascents and ^\'ork at Biijongolo. 



and a piece of meat. One night the splendid animal fell into 

 this trap and was killed on the sj)ot with two halls through 

 its skull. 



On the 12th of July, the Prince was ahle to consider the 

 work of the expedition as ended. On the 7th, Roccati, who 

 had again returned to the Mohuku Glacier to put marks of 

 red paint on the rocks at the limit where the ice stopped, 

 and who had finished arranging all his collections, had 

 already left Bujongolo with Cavalli and with a party of 

 Bakonjo porters carrying a portion of the e(|uipmeut, hound 

 for Ihanda, the lowest camp in the Mohuku Valley. 



One mountain alone remained unclimlied, namely, 

 Mt. Gessi, and the Duke was not in a mood to leave it 

 unattempted, all the more so as this ascent would be 

 connected with an exploration of the Bujuku Valley as yet 

 absolutely unknown and worth traversing in its whole length. 

 A party of Bakonjo had started from the point where the 

 Bujuku Valley opens into the Mohuku Valley opposite 

 Nakitawa, and had already cut a rough track as far as the 

 head of the Valley. 



The plan was now for the Duke to descend the Bujuku 

 Valley with Sella, while Cagni was to direct the transport 

 of all the portion of the equipment which was still at 

 Bujongolo down the Mohuku Valley, and was then to meet 

 Cavalli and Roccati at Ibanda and there wait for tlie Duke. 

 Thus Ibanda became the general rendezvous for the whole 

 expedition.
