then we had to feed the monkey on tinned milk and mashed bananas. 
It throve very well; in a few weeks it could feed itself on a mess of 
bananas, rice, porridge and milk, and when we had it about six 
weeks it took to eating a little grass on the lawn every day. It grew 
stronger and very active and was very fond of us, (although it 
screamed at strangers and would not be touched by them); it also 
enjoyed romps with a Siamese kitten, and the two little animals would 
sleep curled up together—the monkey grasping the kitten’s fur in 
its hands. When playing about and extra pleased, this monkey had 
a comic little habit of jumping in the air vertically and coming down 
again on all fours. Its sense of sight and hearing were particularly 
acute, and it would follow my wife or myself about the house or 
compound. For two months this little animal was as well, happy and 
active as could be; then it got a sudden attack of diarrhza and a bad 
cold in the head, and in spite of careful nursing died on June 4th, 1897.
