CHAPTER VI.

Long before dawn the thirty prison
, erS and Ismail squatted in a little herd
on the up-platform of a railway sta
ton, shepherded by King, who smoked
cherOot some twenty PAGES away,
sitting on an unmarked chest of medi-
cineS. He seemed absorbed in a book
on surgery. Ismail nursed the new
handbag on his knees, picking ever
laStingly at the lock and wondering
audibly what the bag contained to an
accompaniment of low-growled sympa-
thy.
Il am his servant-for she said So
and he said so. Then why-why in
Allah's name-am I not to have the
key Of this little bag that holds SO
little and is so light?"
"A razor would slit the leather cas-
iiy." suggested one Of the herd "Then.
later, the bag might be pushed vio-
lently against some >narp thing, to eA-
plain the cut"
lSmail shook his head.

TO love this man. But such talk is
fooliShness. We are all her men!"
"Aye! We are her men, came the
chorus, so that King looked up and
watched them over the open book.
At dawn, when the train pulled out,
the thirty prisoners sat safely locked
in third-class compartments. King
lay lazily on the cushions of a first
class carriage in the rear and Ismail
attended TO the careful packing of soda
water bottles in the icebox Oh the
floor.
"Shall open the little bag, sahib?"
he asked.
Put it over there!" King ordered,
"Set it down"
lsmail obeyed and King laid his book
down to light another of his black
cheroots. The theme of antiseptics
ceased to exercise it's charm over him.
He peeled off his tunic, changed his
shirt and lay back in sweet content
