ff eco/d Heads .—'The best head on record was in the possession of Wilson 
the well known Ilnnalayan shikari -‘Mountaineer;” we have it on the authority 
Mr. Hume that it measured 16 J ins., and was 114 ins. in girth. Heads of 14 
inches upwards are now-a-days tolerably scarce, details of several I give further 
on. The British Museum specimen is 13| ins. by 9 ins., and that in the Indian 
Museum, presented by Mr. Hodgson, the naturalist, is 13 ins. by 9 ins.
