. Two African trips, with notes and suggestions on big game preservation in Africa; . ed that public officersmay be specially authorised to kill, etc., in that reserve.Unfortunately the words may be specially authorised in this regulation were interpreted by many of theProtectorate and railway officers as if they were areauthorised, and thus as making the whole of them freeof the reserve.
