him. He wanted to be near at hand when Ramabai struck

1t was 4 o'clock when the caravan entered the little
seaport town. A few tramp steamers lay anchored in
the ofhng. A British flag dropped from the stern of
one of them. This meant Bombay; and Bombay, in
turn, meant Suez, the Mediterranean, and the broad
Atlantic.
The air was still and hot, for the Indian summer was
now beginning to lay its burning hand upon this great
peninsula. The pale dust, the white stucco of the build

They proceeded at once to the SINGLE hotel, where
they found plenty Of accommodation. Then the Colonel
hurried off to the cable Office and wired Winnie. Next

firmly on her feet, she turned to thank the
wild eyed hiLlman. But her best Hindustani
(and she was able to speak and understand quite q GttIs
By now) fell on ears which heard but did not sense what
she said. The man, mild and harmless enough, for all

stood nothing.
But there is one language which is universal the world
over, and this is sign language. Kathlyn quickly stopped
and drew in the dust the shape of the rest house. Then
she pointed in the direction whence she had come.
He smiled and nodded ~excftedly. He understood now.
Next, being unarmed, she felt the need of some sort Of
weapon. So she drew the shape of a rife in the dust,
then produced four rupees, all she had. The shepherd
gurgled delightedly, ran into the hut, and returned with a
rifle OF modern make and a belt of cartridges. With a
gesture he signifed that it was useless to him because he
lid not know how to use it.
He took the rupees and Kathlyn took the rifle, vaguely
wondering how it came into the possession of this poverty
stricken hIlman. Of one thing she was certain: it had
become his either through violence OF his own or Of
others. She examined the breech and found a dead shell.

There was not a bit of rust on the rifle, and the fact
