hands. He had torn the flesh with a
thorn the day before, and there was an
unhealed scratch. The rough tongue
OF the beast started the blood, and he
had no sooner got the taste than he
rose up, with fire in his eyes, and
growled savagely. The old ones adj
vanced and turned the body over and
back again and struck at the bleeding
hand with their paws, and it was evil
dent that they were encouraging the
young one to make his first meal of a
human being He was timid about be-
ginning, but finally lay down again and
bit and worried the hand as you have
seen a dog worry a rat. The old tigers
ran TO and fro whining and growing
and encouraging, and presently l real
lied that l must do something or the
captain would be eaten alive. had
just opened my mouth to utter shout
when the beating began. The natives
were armed with drums, frecrackers,
torpedoes and cymbals, and, though
they were a mile away, the noise at
once alarmed the tigers. The three
the old male picked up the captains
body and started off with it. He did
not carry it over 100 feet, however.
Ratified by the explosions in the nullah,
he lost his wits and dropped the body
and bolted into the thicket.
1t was only when too late that gave
the alarm. Two of the hunters answer
nd
to the body. 1 was hopeful that the
captain was still all right and more so
when we found that his hand had not
been so very badly bitten, but brief
inspection proved that he was dead
The body was warm and limp, but the
heart had ceased to beat. That he could
not have fallen asleep so quickly after
lying down | felt certain He must
have been awake when the tigers stole
upon him, and his idea would have
been to play dead" That he acted
upon this idea was shown by his hold
ing himself so rigid when turned over.
l believe he was yet alive when the
cub bit his hand and that he was wait
ing for the noise of the beaters to
frighten the tigers away. He held his
nerve to that point, but when the noise
was delayed and he found himself be-
ing eaten by piecemeal he was so over
come that death came to him as from a
bullet. A weakness of the heart unsus-
pected by him carried him off while
he was probably bracing himself to
stand the torture of the tigers jaws
and wait for relief to come.
