Then he heard the grating of a key, the shooting of a bolt.

The heat was insuf- ferable; mosquitoes tortured him, yet he was enjoying luxury as. compared with the godown and the boiler- - house.

A pack of jackals ed across their path, yelling like endslet `loose from the lower world. There was a hiss, a. rustle of leaves, a utter of wings, a cry of terror; a cobra had seized a night bird. But these details were too commonplace to Laalool to cause him even a momentary pause. On- ward he went, silently like a ghost, and Japser always tryingto overtake whim, but never doing so.

Your friend s lift; is in your keep- ing, he said. If you fail me he dies. The kitmurghar interpreted this, and Jim s reply was simply an em- phatic He will not die. Mahomed took that to mean that Jim would bring back the` treasure . Then "Jim and his guide passed out, and made their way through the village, which `seemed deserted. The sky was smoky with heat. The earth was baked; the trees wilted; the slight wind that came toiling over the scorched earth was like the blastfrom a thrice-heat-: ed furnace.` Fortunately, Jim Brad- cld was inured to the Indian cli-_ mate, and the sense of freedom that, he now experiencd, after coming from ' the jaws of death, raised his spirits; and added a springiness to his step. so that the old woman foundsome kliculty in ke_eping up. with him. `They left the village behind them, `and toiled-across a sun-smitten plain. 1.

It was almostlike insan- ity, but such was his feeling. Con- versation was out of the question. Mechanically he followed his guide, trying, as he believed, to overtake him; and yet only.a few yards sepa- rated them. With his bare feet, Laa- lool made no sound; he walked rap- idly. Jasper wore Indian slippers, and, being unused to them, he ex- peiienced some .ditculty in; walking silently. At last the houses were fewer, the road was broadening. They were getting clear of the village. They passed some men coiled up un- der a wall; one partially` rose and made a remark or asked a_ question, which was answered by Laalool sat- isfactorily, for the man lay down again. The fugitives hurried on. At_ last the village was behind- them. Jasper began to breathe freely; He yearned to question Laalool. Where was the writer of the letters, the wo- man who had rendered vsuccour in the rst village, who had been a guardian angel in this ? Where were they go- ;u_yaI.\.1_y ; \ing to? The Indian gave him no t chance of speech, however. He was consumed with anxiety for their joint safety. . He knew that if. they were pursued and overtaken it would mean death for them, both. At such a time conversation was out of place. On- Teena- 3:511.`-...`.1 `L2...- ..-u-u-.3 p--on-o Suddenly there came to him the lclick 'of' a lock. His heart stopped. He turned his bloodshot eyes to the door, Slowly, slowly it opened. A gure stood on the threshold. It was Laalool. Allport s heart went onaagain. The kitmurghar raised his hand as a sign of _caution. He "ad- vanced into the room, leaving the -door ajar. He carried a puggarree, which he deftly and quickly wound round Allport s head. From under his"'own dress he produced a thin muslin robe, which he told Allport to don with all speed. Then he utter- ed the word `Come., No second bidding was needed. The two tip- tced out. They crept alongthe cor- ridor, gwhicht was in darkness. They gained the outer verandah; they de- scended the steps; they were in the village street. - Jasper drew in a great gulp of air-hot, stiing air, but it was the air of freedom. Above, the stars were shining in all the splend- our of Indian brilliancy, and the moon was low down on the horizon. -Keeping in the shadows thrown by the native dwellings, the two men glided rather than walked. At that moment there was one dominating `thought in Jasp_gr s mind--the my- sterious woman who had befriended him, was he not to see her? Was he to have no chance of thanking her, was she for ever and ever to re- main a `mystery ? In 4.L.;.A.' -.s_.__A-A - ` .
