We went almost 4' E.S.E., and crossed a strong rivulet 8 or 10 yards wide: then on and up to a ridge and along the top of it, going about south.

We had breakfast on the edge of the plateau, looking down into a broad lovely valley.

We now descended, and saw many reddish monkeys, which made a loud outcry: there was much game, but scattered, and we got none.

Miserably wet crossing another stream, then up a valley to see a deserted Boma or fenced village.
_15th January, 1872._--Along a valley with high mountains on each hand, then up over that range on our left or south.

At the top some lions roared.
