CHAPTER XII.

Andrea did not awake until Trevor
withdrew his arm, which was when
they were already in sight Of their
home landing.
BY the time she reached the camp
sine was in no mood to welcome the
astonishing sight of three white men
calmly taking siesta in Trevor's most
comfortable chairs. their helmets and
dolmans tossed aside and their short
sleeved understands unbuttoned at the
neck. The only thing to be discerned
in their favor was that they were all
freshly shaven. 1t did not cheer her
to see that upon catching sight of
them, Trevor's face cleared.

Andrea could not resist single

for change I'll so aud have my tea

Trevor ignored the hit. "Good girl"
he said, his attention already swerving
to his snoring guests.
"And you won't tell me who they
are?" asked Andrea. "Or don't you
know?"
He fixed her with a meaning stare.
Certainly | know" he said, ''for

and trouble. Also l may as well tell
you now TINT one Of them at least is a
priest of the Church of England"
A flame Of color stained Andrea's
cheeks and her eyes went suddenly
wide. Things were moving and only
by q tremendous effort did she catch
up with them. "Great expense" she
murmured. Something under three
pounds, I suppose"

Half an hour later Andrea found

at her. His eyes were fastened far
ahead on the river, uaclus; out the
swirl of the current and deep water.
A troubled look came into Andrea s
face; she glanced at him and her lips
parted twice In the half-smile that
