 senger to inform us that another herd of elephants had been 

 seen, and that an unfriendly tribe of natives to the east of him 

 had found the carcass of the econd bull elephant which Fuguet 

 had wounded. Not having full confidence in African veracity, 

 and judging that the natives would not give up valuable ivory 

 without a controversy, we sent Mutari our regards and moved 

 westward into a new country.
