The following is a letter receiv

Forest Glen , Nairobi , British
East Africa , June 30 , 1911. ] Vy
dear Meltendorff We returned
from our first safari , June
12. Mr. llaiuey has taken Forest
Glen here for a year. He left for
the north a few days ago and left
me here to look after the place.
He will be gone about three
months after elephant. When he
re'turns we are going on another
lion hunt. We have thirty-three
more dogs due at the coast July
12 , and I am going to Mombasa ,
to meet them. We had a great
time and broke all records killing
lions.
I may not return to America
with the others , am thinking of
building a tannery and going into
that business. It looks like a
good thing.
Mr. Rainey has instructed me to
send you a lion skin with his com
pliments. I will try and put in
something with it in the way of a
trophy.
Am sending some pictures un
der separate cover. Will let you
know when the lion skin starts.
With best wishes to Mrs. Mel-
teudorff and the girls , I am ,
Very truly ,
E. Shelley.
Mr. Shelley sent several pic
tures of hunting scenes , wounded
game , etc. , which are now on ex
hibit at Chapman's. One picture
shows the hunting party and nine
ions. Eight of them had been
killed in thirty minutes , a big re
cord for even that big game coun
try. Mr. Meltendorff supplied
the party with several dogs and
horses , and at the present time
has ten head of horses in reserve
for Mr. Rainey.
