General Information:
Rediscovered - 1913 - Kisumu - Doctor Moett [sic] the medical officer, is immensely busy - and immensely pleased and interested. He set a dozen wire traps, caught a dozen plague rats, and left the lot by his laboratory door, pending investigation. When he went to look for them an hour or so later, they had gone. Only the empty traps! Summoned his boys. "Oh yes, we know where the rats are; we ate them; isn't that what the bwana caught them for?" "And they were plague rats!" concluded the doctor pathetically.
