A JOURNEY TO THE SOURCE OF THE INDAU. / 



of hills the Tenang range, the larger portion of which lies 

 within the Johor frontier. 



On September 1st, we crossed the Tenang Hills into Ulu 

 Segamat, from this point my work took me northwards towards 

 Keratong and the Jekati River. Five weeks later I returned 

 to Johor Baharu by way of Muar and the West coast. 



Itinerary from Kuala Sembrojtg to Ulu Indaii. 



I have compiled the following from my journal and sketch 

 map in the hope that it may prove useful to future travellers. 



The mileage given is, of course, only approximate, still I 

 think that the error is well under io%. I have not thought it 

 necessary to give any of the more precise topographical data, 

 as it would be of little value here unless accompanied by a 

 map of Johor. In every case when the mileage is given, it 

 refers to the distance above Kuala Sembrong and not Kuala 

 Indau.
