Francis Macomber had, half an hour before, been carried to his tent
from the edge of the camp in the triumph on the arms and shoulders of
the cook, the personal boys, the skinner and the porters. The gun
bearers had taken on part in the demonstration. When the native boys
put him down at the door of his tent, he had shaken all their hands,
received their congratulations, and then gone into the tent and sat on
the bed until his wife came in the tent. She did not speak to him when
she came in the tent and he left the tent at once to wash his face and
hands in the portable wash basin outside and go over to the dining tent
to sit in a comfortable canvas chair in the breeze and the shade.
