Mafeking
or Kimberley by wagon, from Beira, Chindè, Mombasa, or Lamoo with native carriers, it is best and cheapest to bring out from England everything necessary for the comfort and support of the European members of the expedition. The best tents (these are not required on a wagon trip) are the Weissman tents. One of these, seven feet six inches by six feet, made of stout Willesden canvas with double roof and canvas floor-cloth, costs £9, weighs 100 lb., and affords comfortable accommodation for two Europeans.
