After Jameson's death and the conclusion of the expedition, and at a time when Stanley's published account of his relations with the rear column at Yambuya was undergoing severe criticism at the hands of the survivors, Stanley published the story in the London Times (8 November 1890). He claimed that Jameson had deliberately bought the girl and donated her to cannibals in order to watch and draw her transformation into food. Stanley's most incriminating witness was Assad Farran, Jameson's interpreter, who, however, turned out to be also highly unreliable. According to a sworn statement made by Farran in Stanley's presence, Jameson had expressed curiosity to witness cannibalism, and Tippu Tip had suggested that he purchase and sacrifice a slave for the purpose. Jameson asked about the price and was told he could buy a slave for six handkerchiefs (the same amount as given in his diary). He sent for the handkerchiefs and gave them to a man who soon returned, bringing the ten-year-old girl. Together with the chief and other people present, they then went to a group of "native huts" and a man pointed out the girl to the inhabitants, stating "this is a present from the white man, he wants to see how you do with her when you eat her."[27]
The girl was tied by a hand to a tree, while "about five of the natives were sharpening their knives", one of whom then killed her by stabbing her "twice in the belly". Similar to Jameson, Farran stated that "the girl did not scream", but added that she "knew what was going on; she was looking right and left as if looking for help, and when she was stabbed she fell down dead." She was then cut into pieces, which the natives distributed among themselves. Some of them went "to the river to wash" the "meat", while "others went straight to their huts" to cook it. While all this happened, "Mr. Jameson had his book and pencil in hand, and was making rough sketches of the scene." Afterwards he went to his house to finish them and paint them with watercolours.[28] Farran said that he and many others saw the sketches:

54 aastat tagasi ehk 24/11/1971 hüppas "Dan Cooper" Boeing 727 tagumiselt trepilt 200K dollariga välja (täna ~1.6 miljonit). Siiani USA ainus lahendamata skyjacking.
A stunning discovery at an archaeological dig in the UK is rewriting the timeline of when humans first made fire.
Researchers have discovered the earliest known instance of human-created fire, which took place in the east of England 400,000 years ago.
The new discovery, in the village of Barnham, pushes the origin of human fire-making back by more than 350,000 years, far earlier than previously thought.
54 aastat tagasi ehk 24/11/1971 hüppas "Dan Cooper" Boeing 727 tagumiselt trepilt 200K dollariga välja (täna ~1.6 miljonit). Siiani USA ainus lahendamata skyjacking.
Kusjuures vist ei õnnestunud tal see värk - mingid samade seerinanumbritega rahatähed on leitud mingi jõe kaldalt liiva seest.
Aga väga äss ettevõtmine küll, mängu ilu arvestades. _________________ MTÜ Sõdurilt Sõdurile (FB-leht)

1980 ehk 9 aastat hiljem, leiti 6000 dollarit (3x2000 patakat) Colombia jõe liivaselt kaldalt ehk täpsemalt Tena Bar-ist. See on aga omaette müsteerium müsteeriumis, kuidas raha sinna sai, sest lend, millelt ta välja hüppas, lendas üle rohkem kui 20km lääne poolt. Ja tuul oli NE suunas ehk siis vastupidi. Eeldatav drop zone oli Battle Grounds kandis. Kõvasti eemal sellest, kus poiss raha leidis.
Kas pool lennukitäit inimesi pommiga pantvangi võtta on äge... ohvrid nii ei arva. _________________ MÜÜA: PlayStation 3 Slim 160GB (UUS)
