"She coneth from on high, bringing message
to the people Of Canaan" The elders walled pray
ers Of thanksgiving. Niarchus merely nodded and
said: Then her sacred person will be unframed
when she standeth before Baals Pillar, which
bringeth death only to sinners!"
The Indianapolis times. [volume] (Indianapolis [Ind.]) 1922-1965, 1935-07-01

Niarchus halted suddenly. The sky-creature
had spoken in a strange tongue and the girl Arbela
had understood: What doth she say?" he de-
manded. Arbela thought quickly. She was the
cleverest Of the tribe, and she wanted to protect
this beautiful visitor from the priest.
The Indianapolis times. [volume] (Indianapolis [Ind.]) 1922-1965, 1935-07-01

Niarchus, the high priest, crept toward the two
women, his eyes blazing with fanatic fury. The
girl Arbela drew close to Lady Beth, trembling
with fear for she knew that the old prophet was
capable Of nfcting the most horrible cruelties in
the name of Baal the bloodthirSty.
The Indianapolis times. [volume] (Indianapolis [Ind.]) 1922-1965, 1935-07-01
Ahern

Fear gripped the heart of Lady Beth, too but
she preserved an outward calm. She put an arm
around the golden Arbela and said: Remain with
me-" Arbela did not understand, but there was
something in the tone that treasured her, and now
her face shown with a new serenity.
