That evening ~While at his supper
one of Jim's Jamaican policemen

my man"
Daylight found him on the upper
Chagres. He had taken a long cayu-
qua and four native negroes, his own
men whom he could trust.
His plans were definite; he would
go to Alhajuela, the abandoned hy-
draulic station, and there he would
live in one of the old French cabins,
apparently as hydraulic engineer,
while he sent out his men to scout
the different tributaries. AS soon as
they had located his man he would
go to the spot in person and make
the arrest.
He had no fear that Diamond
would try to leave the river until
driven out by the rains; by that time
the physical appearance of the man
would be altered by sunburn, beard,
and the loss of flesh.

were to bow before the bigger things;
human knowledge, duty, but most Of
all, the Pride of Craft.
Day passed day at Alhajuela. Jim
lived in the abandoned cabin of the
former French photographer. Juan
remained as his servant; the negroes
he furnished with two smaller
cayuguas and sent on up the river
to scout some of the smaller tribu-
taries.
Most of his time he spent upon
the stream, spearing fish and shoot
ing crocodiles, or in the jungle, hunt
ing deer and turkeys and watching
! the forest life. ....
One morning Jim awoke with a
numbing headache; the sunlight
seemed to shine through his eye
balls into his brain, and his tongue
was like the tag end of his belt.

a semi-delirium, eating nothing,
sleeping a fitful fever sleep, and
dreaming fantastic fever dreams. The
third night he was awakened by the
crash of rain upon the corrugated
iron roof of his cabin; at the same
time he was vaguely conscious of a
roaring in his ears, which he aseribed
to quinine and malaria.
Toward morning it reused him
