1t was quite impossible for any pursuit
from Egypt to cross the Red Sea and
reach Arabia so soon as this. The capture
Of the Sheykh Hassan on the river had
been made by a small guard OF British
soldiers whom Won Hengel had had some
difficulty in eluding, but by good fortune
camels had been few and those Of his own
caravan had been fast. But the fact re-
mained that here was Alan Jessup, and
where the American had been able to come

In his heart he cursed the leisurely Has
san Isar. who had insisted on remaining to
pray in the mosque at Assiut, when he
should have already been well upon his
way TO the sea- But how had Alan Jessup
succeeded in getting on his trail so quickly
unless by a wireless from the British base
at Cairo? And how unless in the Turkana?
And if in the Turkana, were British sol
diers with him?
In the few moments before Won Hengel
spoke Alan could see that he was deeply
puzzled and suspicious, but there was no
sign of anxiety in his easy, somewhat ban
tering tone.
"My congratulations, Alan" he began
with q laugh. Its really too bad that
your effort is to be wasted"
% Alan made no reply and only smiled in
his weary way.
Il suppose it must be fairly obvious"
won Hengel went on, that your temerity
has gotten you into a desperate situation.
I've done what could for the moment,
though l can't tell how long in daylight I'll
be able to keep these people at bay. But,
as you see, have some influence with
them and if you'll meet me only half way
! think can save your life"
As Won Hengel paused, Alan drawled:
Thanks, Conrad. Awf'ly good Of you"

The thoIght that
he had thrown his
men into a danger
perhaps needlessly-
was to Alan more
torturing than the
pain of his wrists as
the thongs ate into
his raw flesh. He
struggled quietly as

Won Hengel examined his
captor keenly, now quite GER
tain Of many months Of mis-
Judgment. Alan was grinning
in a very genuine sort Of way
as though fully aware Of his
captor's power to save him
and quite amenable to any
suggestion which would lead
to that eventuality. But Won
Hengel had learned to be-
come wary Of that grin. And
he couldn't forget that al
although Alan was his pris-
oner, he was himself as help
less in his own mission as
Alan, If the captive didn't re-
veal the whereabouts Of the,

an easy tone, reminiscent OF
friendship.

The German laughed. "And what
