In the stream itself we cannot go far without disturbing the rest of some ugly saurian ; or a hippopotamus, catching alarm in time, can be traced crashing its way through the reeds to a place of safety. Consul Elton describes his passage of this " lake of mud " as a time to be remembered. The country was inundated. " Far and wide the waters stretched over the whole flat, from the margin of the hills bounding the granitic ranges north of Morumbala away to the Manganja range on the west, forming ...an immense expanse, here and there dotted with lines of green rushes and low trees. It was a day without a cloud — a company of distant pelicans look- ing like a line of breakers in the bright sunset, Mor- umbala purpling far away against a roseate-tinged sky, of the deepest azure overhead, the Nyanja waters of a deep amethyst colour. " But the gloiy of these marshes is their elephants. The Nyanja Mururu, or Great Lake, a little further on, is even a more favourite haunt for them than the Nyanja Pangolo, or Little Lake, we have just crossed with Elton.
