Big Game Hunting in East Africa; Abel Chapman in "On Safari," Tells of Experiences and Adventures in Killing Elephants and Other Animals.

The New York Times
January 23, 1909, Saturday


EVER since it became known that President Roosevelt upon the expiration of his term of office on March 4th next would cast aside the "big stick" and shoulder the express rifle and the elephant gun for a shooting expedition in Equatorial Africa books dealing with the subject of big game hunting have had great vogue with the reading public.

I'm unfortunately on a diet. Presently in VA hospital as Agent Orange finally caught up with me. Cancer and I no longer can speak. If all goes well I'll be out of here and back home in Thailand by end of July. Tough road but I'm a tough old guy. I'll make it that hunt.

Nice one there. I guided for mulies and elk for about 10 or so years in northern New Mexico.

Business is the only way to fly. I'm headed to SA August 25. I'm hoping that business isn't an arm and a leg. If you don't mind, what airline and the cost for your trip. Mine will be convoluted. I'll be flying into the states to pick up my 416 Rigby as Thailand doesn't allow firearms (pay no attention to the daily shootings and killings) so I'll have 2 very long trips.
