18 July 1868 - banks of Anseba River - the spoor of elephants, black rhinoceros, and lions were plentiful along the banks. On 19 July 1869 we left Bejook for Walliko, seeing on the road plenty of spoor of Elephant and Rhinoceros. From Walliko we crossed over to Gabena Weld Gonfallon, or the river-plain, where Mr Blanford and Capt. Mokeler killed a rhinoceros.
