for the first time. Often she had sug-
gested to M'sungo that she wished to
visit it, but on every occasion his lips
had set in q straight line and he had
invented manifold reasons for keep
ing her from its shores. The most eff
ficacious of these arguments were
snakes and crocodiles, but while she
conceded the strength of those two
1eterrents she could not escape from
IN intuitive belief that there was
