to be ready for the start; then he would have
to help to load them, and start off on the
march. This seemed to me fearfully hard
work for him, but he never appeared any the
worse for it, and was always bright and cheery.
I gave him a mount one day on one of my
camels, but he would never get up again, as he
said the guide would give him no wages if
he did.
There were eight camels. I rode one my-
self, four others carried my baggage and stores,
and my servant rode on the top of one of the
baggage camels; of the remaining three, one
carried the water, one was laden with brick tea,
which is used in place of money for buying
things from the Mongols, and the third was
loaded with the men's kit. The total weight
of my baggage, with the two months' stores,
servant's cooking things, camp equipage, etc.,
was 1416 lbs.
