The Yankee was in the lead when the

As we entered the gorge and reached
the path which zigzags over the Lacha-
lang we found it blocked by 500 sheep
and goats, which were coming down
the pass. These were the large Huniya
sheep, the load carriers through these
highlands They are splendid animals,
with magnificent feeces. The goats
were beautiful little creatures. Under
meath their long hair is soft, silky un-
dergrowth, which is used in the manu-
facture Of the fine cashmere shawls.
Many Of the sheep die by the way from
want Of food. The sight Of animals be-
ing hurried along i'll and even with
broken legs was perfectly sickening.
This enormous flock had long jour.

their way to Lassa, with their saddle
bags full Of grain. They were accom-
panied by eight gaddis (shepherds), the
roughest looking men, who urged the
sheep ON with wild shouts which rang
echoing through the gorge. Long hair
hung over their faces beneath sheepskin
caps tied under the chin. Their long.
dirty coats were pulled up through their
wooden kamarbands. in which were
stuck several knives, the usual steel for
striking light and variety OF other
things. These men were going the
whole way on foot without any tents.
