to speak swiftly In language that she
did not understand, addressing his
comrade The language was so curious
that the woman, with the cry arrested
on her lips, stared at him. Pointing to
mis- companion, Hammet Abou said:
"Fatou Ami, this great lord kisses
your hand. He says that he wishes
he could speak your beautiful lam
guage. He does not come from the
enemy; he does not come from the
French. He comes from two women
of his people by whom the captive is
beloved He says that you are the
mother of sons and grandsons, and
that you will deliver this man up into
our hands in peace"
The narrow fetid streets were be-
ginning to fill with the figures of
women. their beautifully colored
robes fluttering in the light, and there
were curious eager children who came
running, naked save for the bangles
upon their arms and ankles.
Pointing to them, Hammet Abou
said to the old sage:
See, you are only women here,
Fatou Ami Your men are twenty
miles farther south. We have cara
van of fifty men all armed, Fatou
Ami. They camp just there, at the
edge of the oasis. They are waiting.
We come in peace, old woman; we
come to take away the Evil Eye from
your door; but if you anger us and
rave against us, the dogs and women
of your town will fall upon you and
destroy every breast among you"
She began to beat her palms to-
gether, murmuring:
Allah! Allah"
"Hush," said the Bedouin fiercely,
"take us to the captive. Fatou Ami"
Fatou Ami did not stir. She
pulled aside the veil from her with
cred face, so that her great eyes
looked out at the two men. She saw
her predicament, but she was subtle
Oriental Victory had been in her
camp and in her village; her sons and
grandsons had never been vanquished.
Perhaps the dying man in the hut
would bring the Evil Eye! He was
dying, anyway-he would not live
twenty -four hours. She knew this,
for her ninety years of life had seen
many eyes close on the oasis under
the hard blue skies.
To the taller of the two Bedouins
she said in Arabic:
"Fatou Ami is nearly one hundred
years old. She has borne twenty chill
1ren, she has had fifty grandchildren;
she has seen many wives, many brides
and many mothers She does not be-

She is not afraid of your fifty armed
men. Fatou Ami is not afraid. AL
ah is great. She will not give up the
Frenchman because of fear, nor will
she give him up to any man. She
gives him to the women of his people"
With dignity and majesty and with
great beauty of carriage, the old wom-
IN turned and walked toward her hut
and the Bedouins followed her.
