"And you start for West Africa to-
morrow"
Bransome felt the question was
like an Unwritten doom. He looked
at Mary Starr in the moonlight as
they stood outside Col. Stars con-
servatOTy.
Bransome had known Mary for
five months. Col Starr, in whose
regiment he was now a captain, had
taken a liking to the young man
when they were posted in Malta and
had invited him to his home in Eng
land. Now Bransome, with the act
ing rank Of major, was to leave for
West Africa to put down the rebellion
of the KrU tribe in the recesses of
the forests. And he loved Mary.
But he knew that she was engaged
to Lionel Travis, the political agent
among the Krus, who had made his
escape to the coast after sanguinary
fighting. Yet they loved, and love
was stronger than honor at that mo-
ment. They graWtated toward each
other and stood looking at each
other, not daring to speak lest they
betray themselves.

some at length.
''Yes?" Her word was like a ca
ress.
What shall 1 tell him?"
Mary took the solitaire from her
finger. Give him this" she said
softly,
Bransome, incredulous, cIasped her
in his arms and their lips met. ''You
love me, dearest?'' he murmured.

the little box. It was a cruel mission,
but there was no way of getting a
letter to Travis, who might be in any
part of the coast.
Bransome sailed the following day,
and, fifteen days later, arrived with
his regiment at the coast town. All
the interior was in a ferment. The
regiment was sent up hastily to the
base, where it halted while the pio-
neers- cut roads through the forest.
And it was there that Bransome met
Travis.
He was. to accompany the column
as political delegate to the loyal
