D uring the night a dozen lions scented around our camp, b u t w ith o ut Causing any alarm, and soon after d a y lig h t the natives w ent out to investi- gate ..the trap. No hunter ever had su.ch a w in d fa ll before or since. As n ig h t came sev- eral lions must have scentcd the carcass, and gathered fo r a feast. The rig h tfu l owphr objected, o f course, and there was a lig h t, the result o f which was that three fu ll-g ro w n males tum bled into our p it. T h is fact d id n o t prevent others from p ic k in g the carcass clean. One o f tho captives was the cheeky o ld fellow who had entered our camp, and the other, tw o wer ■ fu lly as largo, in the course o f the forenoon we had them out and in the cages, and tw o of them ate in the U n ite d ’ States to day in zoological gardens. unlike There are plenty o f instances where men have been seized b y lions and lived to relate the particulars, though no tw o agree as to sensations. A week subset quent to our capture o f the three lions I had been out w it h some of the natives to prepare a bait in a ro c k y ravine.
