We shortly found a herd, and Wortley got a shot at about sixty yards, and killed a doe.

We could have killed other deer shortly afterwards, but we did not wish to disturb the country by firing unnecessary shots, as we had observed fresh tracks of elephants.
We carried the deer to the tent, and rejoiced our coolies with the sight of venison; the doe was soon divided among them, one haunch only being reserved for our own use.
Nov.

30 .-- This, being Sunday, was a day of rest for man and beast after our recent wanderings, and we patiently awaited the arrival of Banda and the trackers.

The guns were all in beautiful order, and stood arranged against a temporary rack, in readiness for the anticipated sport on the following day.
Banda and the trackers arrived in the afternoon.

His accounts were very favourable as to the number of elephants, and we soon laid down a plan for beating the 'Park' in a systematic manner.
Upon this arrangement the duration of sport in this country materially depends.
