Then there are the tent boys, personal servants of the white people.

Each white person has his tent boy, who takes care of his tent, his bedding, his bath, his clothes, and all his personal effects.

A good tent boy is a great feature on _safari_, for he relieves his master of all the little worries of life.

The tent boys always wait on the table and do the family washing.

They also see that the drinking water is boiled and filtered and that the water bottles are filled each evening.
Last of all come the porters, of whom we had eighty.
