He is a shaitan [a devil]. We are in bad luck to-day — leave him alone. He has no tusks, and, besides, he is sure to die. You have but one barrel loaded — my rifle is empty ; there is not a tree near, and the janivar means fighting. ' Wedderburn, who ought to have known better, for the old man's courage was proverbial, and he had been the best shikarie of Michael (the great elephant shot of India in those days), called him a coward, and said, ' Well, stay here, and see how I will kill him, ' an...d rushed on to his fate. The rocjue allowed Wedder- burn to get close up to him, and then wheeled round to the charge. Wedderburn fired, failed to stop him, turned to run, and, though the sward was as smooth as a lawn, he tripped and fell. Before the smoke cleared away, his body was a shapeless mass of clay. The beast was found dead the next day with twenty- two bullets in him, any one of which Oocha declared would have killed an ordinary animal.
For tiger-shooting in the plains of the East elephants are a necessity, and to make the best use of them it is of importance that the furniture should be of the best and lightest compatible with strength.
