Far away a brown figure in clout

the information for which HIS master
had detailed him to follow. night and

white hunter was coming hot-foot to

was his business; he was as tireless
as camel and could run 90 and 80
miles at stretch. The soles of his
feet were as tough as elephants hide.
Thus he reached the city an hour be-
fore Bruce and Ramabai.
When Bruce and the native banker
arrived at the gate coolies stood about
with torches. Suddenly beyond the

CHAPTER III-Contlnued.

Punditas narrative was rather long
but not uninteresting. She had learned
English from the old white priest who
had died during the last plague. She
was of high caste; and far back in the
days OF the Great Mogul in Delhi her
forebears had ruled here; but strife
and rebellion had driven them forth.
In order that her immediate forebears
might return to their native state and
dwell In peace they had waived all
possible rights of accession. They
had found her husband standing over

enmity too far. As a matter of fact,
