One I now am on takes me up and another takes me down.

I will see a great deal that is strange and it is very interesting.
Yesterday, for example, only an hour before our train reached Gongolo Station, there were three elephants that wandered across the track.

We were very disappointed not to have seen them.

At the mission house on the way up, I brought the first ice the mission boys had seen and when I put a piece in the hand of one, he yelled and danced about as though it were a coal.

The higher up you go the tougher it gets.
