The Prince [of Wales] and his Comrades: Camp-Fire after Dinner in the Terai, 1876. The future King Edward VII in India.

Here in the jungle this can be done, for there is no crowd to break through and disturb such a free and open arrangement. It tells how far from the haunts of men the Terai is when a Prince and his suite can sit out in this comfort
