Rutton retained his clutch upon Am
ber's hand; and his eyes, their luster
dimmed, held Amber's. pitlful, pas
sionate, memorable in their entreaty.
Amber sat down, his soul shaken with
the pity Of 1t.
"Ah-hI" sighed Rutton. Relieved,
the tension relaxed; he released Am
ber's hand; his body sank little in
the chair. Becoming conscious Of this,
he pulled himself together. {.
Enter India by way of Calcutta" he
said in a dull and heavy voice.
There, in the Machua bazaar, you will
find a goldsmith and money lender

Never mind-but remember these

you must under no circumstances have

have It known that you communicate
with them, would be the equivalent OF
a seal upon your death warrant. You
remember the money lenders name"

"All right. butt" Amber resumed
his seat, staring.
"You and Doggott are to seek her
out, wherever she may be, and rescue
her from what may be worse than
death. And 1t shall come to pass that
you shall love one another and marry
and live happily ever after-just as
though you were a prince and she an

CHAPTER VI.

REQ Dawn.
Presently Amber rose and quietly
exchanged dressing gown and slippers
for his own shooting jacket and boots
which by now we're dry, thanks to
Doggott's thoughfulness in placing
them near the fire.
The shabby tin clock had droned
through 80 minutes since Rutton had
spoken his last word. In that inter
val. sitting face to face, and for lit
tie time hand in hand, with the man
to whom he had pledged his honor,
Amber had thought deeply. carefully
weighing ways and means; nor did he
move until he believed his plans ma
ture and definite.
But before he could take one sep
toward redeeming his word to Rut-
ton, he had many cares to dispose Of.
In the hut, Rutton lay dead Of pOison;I
somewhere among the dunes the babu
lay In his blood, shot to death-foully
murdered, the world would say.
Should these things become known, he
would be detained indefinitely in No
komis as q witness-if, indeed, he es-
capped a graver charge.
II was, then, with mind burdened
with black anxiety that he went to
arouse Doggott.
"Mr. Rutton Is dead, Doggott," he
managed to say with some difficulty.
Doggott exclaimed beneath his
breath. Dead" he cried in tone Of
daze. In two strides he had left Am
Der and was kneeling by Rutton's
side. The most cursory examination,
however, sufAced to resolve his every
doubt.
Dead" whispered the servant. He
rose and stood swaying. his lips
a-tremble, his eyes blinking through a
mist, his head bowed. "'E always
was uncommon good to me, Mr.. Am
ber," he said brokenly. TITS a bit

q time.
When he had hlmsen IN more COLI

Then, reverently, they took up the
body and laid 1t out upon the ham,
mock-bed. Doggott arranging the
limbs and closing the eyes before
spreading a sheet over the rigid form.
"And now, what, Mr.. Amber" he
asked.
"Nr. Rutton spoke of a dispatch
box, Doggott. You know where to
find IT."
Yes. sir"
