CHAPTER XIV.


Under the sun, under the starry
nights fremont, with his burden, jour
neyed toward the north. The halts
were distastefuI to him, and although
he was forced to rest he would rather
have been cursed with sleeplessness
and have journeyed ON and on. He
rode his camel like Bedouin; he grew
brown like the Bedouins and under the
hot breezes, swaying on his desert
ship, he sank into dreamy, moody and
melancholy reveries, like the wander
ing men OF the Sahara, and felt him
self part of the desolation, as they
were.
What will be, will bel" Hammet
Abou said to him hundred times, and
fremont wondered: "Will Charles live
to see Algiers?"
Sabron journeyed in a litter carried
between six mules, and they travelled
slowly, slowly. fremont rode by the
sick mans side day after day. Not
once did the soldier for any length of
time regain his reason. He would pass
from coma to delirium, and many
times fremont thought he had ceased
to breathe. Slender, emaciated under
his covers, Sabron lay like the image
of q soldier in wax-a wounded man
carried as votive Offering to the
affairs of desert warfare.
