MY TRIP TO BELtWI. 



135 



At 11.20 we got down do Pulau Temin, a large island, and 

 at 12.10 passed Bersiah. Soon afterwards we obtained a 

 glorious view of Gunong Kendrong, 4,000 feet, and Gunong 

 Krunei 3,200 feet — two magnificent peaks. At 12.45 we pass- 

 ed Kampong Kota on the left and passed the mouth of the 

 Rui river full of silt on our right. At 1.15, Berkuning, which 

 used to be the residence of Mengkong Pah Haliah. At 1.40 

 we reached the Batu Mawa, where the monkeys made their 

 treaty of peace. We arrived at Kuala Kendrong soon after 

 2 p.m., having been actually travelling for 6 hours 25 minutes 

 from Kuala Temengor. This is said to be the fastest time in 

 which the journey has ever been made. 



On the 12th August, after breakfasting with Berkeley at 

 Grit on venison, turtles' eggs and wild honey, 1 motored into 

 Taiping, 87 miles.
