corded, those who glory in hunting dangerous game
may conclude that they cannot do better than to visit
this part of Sumatra. To reach it they should come
from Singapore to Muntok on the island of Banca, and
thence over to Palembang, where the Resident of all
this region resides, and obtain from him letters to
his sub-officers in this vicinity. From Palembang
they should come up the Musi and Limatang to Lahat,
when they will find themselves in a most magnificent
and healthy country, and one literally abounding
in game.
