they were eaten is VouChed tor by surviving
officers. who have since written letters to
friends i'll the United States. The story
of the killing and eating OF Burke Is tod
on the authority of an Arab, who was Il
short distance away from ina o'ncer wheR
his command WAS attacked by Il tribe of
canniha!istiC dwarfS. The Arab. hearing
the shooting. climbed a tree, where he was
safe and from where he could see all that

At the first volIey of the dwarfs Burke's

some months the infrequent mails ceased to
bring the letter so anxiOusly looked for by

ably FAR in the interior. 1t was not until
