The country was beautiful and interesting, and at four o'clock in the afternoon we arrived at Voi, a spot that is synonymous with human ailments.

It is one of the famous ill health resorts of Africa, but on this occasion it was on its good behavior.

We stopped four hours, inspected everything in sight, and at eight o'clock the special began to climb toward the plateau of East Africa.

At nine o'clock we stopped at Tsavo, a place made famous by the two man-eating lions whose terrible depredations have been so vividly described by Colonel Patterson in his book, _The Man Eaters of Tsavo_.

These two lions absolutely stopped all work on the railroad for a period of several weeks.
