“I do not suppose that there is another country in the world where the big game hunting is as good as at Kenya,” remarked Dr. Brow’s, of Hamilton, when referring to his visit to British East Africa. In the course of recent years numerous wealthy men, including several well-known Englishmen, have been attracted to the colony by its game. Some have realised the possibilities of the country for farming, and have settled managers on the large tracts of land purchased originally for game shooting. "There is one wealthy American'—a millionaire by the way—who preserves lions on his estaite,” said the doctor, who confessed, however, that he did not actually see any monarchs of the jungle. “The nearest I got to one was while staying at a farm. The lion came over to the neighbouring farm and disposed of three oxen.” The colony abounds in game of everykind from. elephants to antelopes, of which, he said, there were no fewer than forty different varieties of the latter.
