Travels of Sidi Aly or Katibi Roumis. We reached the town of Pourschewer and after passing the Koutel, we came to the town of Djouschayeh. On the Koutel, we saw rhinoceroses, of which the size was like that of a small elephant. Those rhinoceroses have a horn on the forehead which is two palmes long, but it is a fact that those found in Abyssinia have longer horns.
