| I remember meeting a distinguished man in India, who had the reputation of being a great shikaree, who told me that the greatest temptation he had ever had in his life was to shoot a giant snake which he had come across in the Terai of Upper India. The good fellow was heart-broken at it, and went out to the Terai tea planting, where I hear that he is doing well. |
