That story of the musk ox trip was originally published in GRAY'S SPORTING JOURNAL. After a friend read it, he called me and said, "Is that guy's name ---- -----?" When I said it was, he said, "It had to be! I met him once."
It turned out my friend had been on a safari somewhere in Africa. One day he and his PH had driven by another camp during mid-day, on their way to somewhere else. The two PH's knew each other, so my friend and his PH were asked to stay for lunch.
The client in camp turned out to be none other than my musk ox hunting "partner." My friend only spent about 45 minutes with him, but after reading my description knew it had to be same guy....
