Mr. John Seago -~ 7 - 
I have talked to Pierre Fontaine about ordering bongo. I hope 
he will be writing you shortly. 
I am enclosing an order to a pair of Cheetah and am wording it 
so that you can hold them as long as you desire. 
John King and some of the capture crew might be interested in 
the article by Desmond Morris since it shows there is some 
concern ebout the poor trappers. 
I am enclosing a statement as to what I think our bill is. 
Both you and I forgot about the 400 shillings I gave you the 
first day I arrived in Kenya. Please check our figures and 
if they are not right, please let me know. Aliso let me know 
if Nelson Brown paid up as he should. I have not yet had 
an opportunity to see him in detail. We have just said hello 
as he has been busy getting the equipment ready for the pictures 
to be taken at the rocket launch either today or tomorrow. 
We will get together during the Christmaa. 
When I come back to Africa i will have some interesting things 
to tell you regarding the Hunt Brothers' operation in the U.S. 
Tell John King I have not written to the Capture Committee 
because I have had some things to develop here in the U.S. 
that have perturbed me very much. It concerns some of the 
smaller zoos ordering animals and holding them for dealers. 
As soon as I get some clarification on this I will be writing 
him. 
I am sending by surface mail a copy of "The Honey Guides" by 
Friedmann and a monograph on the breeding of the Hornbilis 
by Kilham. These are for your friend, the Vice President, 
to put in his library. Please teli him thanks for a very 
pleasant afternoon and that when I return to Kenya I will 
take him up on his offer th read in his library. 
According to the boys up in camp you should be catching bongo 
about this time provided the rain as stopped. When you get 
one send me a cable. I am about to die of anxiety:
