Mills Railway - 141 - 1898 - The final line to Nakuru was staked out by A.F. Church and Cooper after Baass left. Blackett had done the work between Nairobi and the Escarpment and Harrison was continuing in the Rift Valley. In October, Harrison was fatally injured by a lioness in the Kedong Valley below Kijabe and buried at Fort Smith; his demise necessitated some re-arrangement. Between Longonot and Elmenteita a party was at work under Boothby and ahead of him was R.J. Church (brother of A.F.) proceeding towards the question mark at Nakuru. R.J. Church was about 200 miles ahead of the rails.
