Continuation of May lli/55 letter 
The director’s house like the one at Garamba is out of this world, 
of stone, high on a hill top that over looks the park for miles, a uniqpje 
and beautiful place and most tastefully furnished. Since visiting Harroy 
I get an inkling why these Park directors have such wonderful homes— 
one never knows when the king might wish to visit this otr that park,

out of our provisions, and the cook's hot water for NescafI) Mr. 
Hueaaert came by with the lunch his wife prepared for the all day trip 
through the park; it takes just about a full day, the Park is so 
large and the road so long, but it was a rewarding day. Impalas and 
zebras are the principal animals that we saw in large herds and droves;
