CHAP. II. GATHERING OF THE NuLTUREs.
Sixteen days had passed since Capt. St

of November found him slowly pacing the
street where it had occurred
As he stood musing, hidden by tho
shadow OF projecting corner, two Alghans
came slowly up the deserted street.
Just as they passed him, he heard one
say to the other
''All is well, then; for the hill tribes
are with us to man if Akbar Khan but

that the Fernghees (Europeans) are

she came hither in the last moon with his
message to the chiefs of the city, he swore
that not man of the unbclievers should
escape and he will keep his OATH

distance.
st. Clair's heart grew chill within him
as he listened. His worst suspicious were
now fully confirmed, and the benumbing
sense of secret treachery (of all things the
most abhorent to brave MANI oppressed
him like nightmare.
Scarcely Knowing what he did, he
stepped forth as if to follow the two con
spirators. and found himself face to face
with Guleyaz herself.
