Theodore Roosevelt, nearing 51, writes in Scribner's Magazine of aging and his East African ranch experiences. He recalls early plains days and recounts his first encounters with large African game.
In a vivid account, Roosevelt describes facing a charging lion Simba and the decision to shoot. He recalls kneeling beside his mount, steadying his aim as the beast threatened, firing twice to break the back and finally killing the animal.
