Craze and Borchu roped and saddled q
white horse from the herd he was tend
ing. offering IL to Temujin. They tool
up the trail again, and came three days
later within sight of the Taidjut's camp
with the stolen horses grazing nearby.
These the two youths drove OF, and
were promptly followed by the warriors
one Of whom, mounted on a white
stallion and armed with lariat, began
to overtake them.
Borchu offered to take Temujins bow
and hang back TO meet the pursuers
but Temujin would have none Of this
They drove on the horses until daylight
began to fail, and the warrior on the
white stallion was almost near enough
TO use his rope.
"These men might wound thee" the
young Mongol said to his new comrade,
"and I viii use the bow"
Dropping behind. he fitted an arrow
TO the string and loosed 1t at the Taid-
jut, who fell from the saddle. and the
others drew rein when they came up
with him.
CUNNING kept Temujin alive. and a
growing wisdom kept the nucleus
OF q clan about him. Physical prowess
he had. and watchfulness. The chief
tains who raided into the fertile region
between the Kerulon and Onon could
drive him from the hills into the lower
plain. but could not bring him to bay,

Only in Temujin did a spark OF un-

when he was seventeen. he went 70 look

The feuds of the Cobb blazed up

to the Karaits who were the people OF
this Prester John of Asia.
TO go as a beggar with empty
hands," Temujin argued, 'is to arouse
Scorn, not fellowship"
And he stuck to this determination
which was not matter Of false pride,
but a Yakka Mongofs downright way
Of thinking. Prester John was obligated
to aid him--an oath Of comradeship Is
more binding In high Asia than the
pledge of king--but he would not
make use of this master of cities and
strange wonders until he could appear
before him as an ally. not as fugitive.
