Text Appearing Before Image:
cassava, which I bought.David, our huntsman, undertook the job of distributing it, and did soby filling each mans gourd and drinking half before he handed itback. They refused to sell me some sugar-cane they had with them,but after I moved on they either gave it away or my men took it, forwhen I looked back each man was carr^-ing about 12 feet. We nextascended a hill which rose steeply for 1000 feet and camped inthe valley beyond, at a spot where a few trees grew from the rocksin the middle of the stream. Just before putting up our hammocks,we had a very heavy shower, and the water swelling rapidly, nearlyobliged us to move elsewhere ; this was the first shower we had had.since leaving Kwaimatta. The following day we had one or two particularly stiff climbs, which,however, were not quite so trying as those we had lately, the quartzand quaitz-porphyiy having been replaced by sandstone, which hadworn more or less smooth, while in the valley we only had to put up Birds of British Guiana.
