Captain Dalton meets Edgar at Rangoon and takes him to the military outpost near the Shwedagon Pagoda. He invites Edgar on a tiger hunting trip, but the expedition goes badly wrong when Witherspoon shoots a child by mistake. Dalton is calmer and more sensible than Witherspoon, but still a little too gun-happy for Edgar's comfort. Like Edgar, he seems genuinely distressed by what happened.
