BIG GAME HUNTERS. SYDNEY November 24
Their hunting experiences in Africa were related by young New Zealanders, Messrs H. Thomas and J. Holmes, who arrived by the liner Themistocles. Their “bag” consisted of twenty different kinds of animals. Thomas nearly lost his life during an encounter with a wounded buffalo, which gored him in the thigh. His companions carried him twenty miles to a mission station, where he was under treatment for many weeks. The scene of the huting exploits was between Northern Rhodesia and Bel gian Congo. A third member of the party, Mr A. McKinnon, left the ship at Melbourne.
