  KYEW 
  : 
  NORTHWESTERN 
  BURMA 
  

  

  This 
  forest 
  is 
  tenanted 
  by 
  wild 
  elephants 
  who 
  often 
  come 
  to 
  bathe 
  in 
  the 
  Khodan 
  stream 
  

   in 
  the 
  daytime. 
  At 
  the 
  time 
  of 
  the 
  visit 
  of 
  the 
  author, 
  these 
  trees 
  were 
  not 
  in 
  fruit, 
  so 
  he 
  

   proceeded 
  a 
  few 
  miles 
  farther 
  to 
  Kyokta, 
  where 
  his 
  search 
  for 
  the 
  precious 
  oil-bearing 
  seeds 
  

   was 
  finally 
  rewarded 
  (see 
  text, 
  page 
  268).
