In his second book of memoirs, 'Going Solo' Dahl wrote this:

"when I got back to Dar es Salaam about two weeks later, there was a letter waiting for me from the East African Standard up in Nairobi asking if I would write my own eye-witness description of the incident (the story about the lion, he describes in the book). This I did and in time I received a cheque for five pounds from the newspaper for my first published work."

He says that this was in 1939.
