I should have cut away back over t!}e hills at least a mile further up." Lynne pushed the red curls back off her dustâ€"streaked forehead, looking as hot and bothered as she felt. Her 0obâ€" vicus nervousness did more than anyâ€" thing to convince Guthrie of the truth of her story; she looked as though her predicament had frightened ‘her, and she seemed anxious to confide in him. enemies though they were.

She must play her part, distasteful though it may ‘be, amnd in dealing with a mean and unâ€" scrupulous opponent, mean weapons were possibly justified. "Where are we, do you know?" Lynne finished up, helplessly. "No? You can tell Ormond wh ee him, though." "I don‘t know when I shall see aid Lynne faintly, "I‘m afraid any further for fear of getting the more.

He had been out since early that morning, having left Cartwright in charge of the camp. He had been riding all daf through the enipty wastes, with never a sight of men or habitation, searching in the «direction in which Cartwright believed Shaley to have gone on his last expedition. And now, suddenly, as from nowhere, a boy on a camelâ€"â€"â€" At least, Guthrie took the rider for a boy at first, until the glint of red hair under the panama made him susâ€" pect. Lynne saw the inquiring frown on his face as they approached one anâ€" other; then the frown turned to grim recognition.

He was used to liking pecple and being liked in return. Her dislike waunded him all the more beâ€" causeâ€"hs had to admit itâ€"she Atâ€" tracted him. And just at that moment it occurred to Guthrie that this was a trick, perâ€" haps. Wzuld they stop at anything. Ormond and this girl? He recollected the blow aimed at his head that night, not a week ago in London as he went upstairs to his flat. He turned sharply to look at the girl, and found her eyes fixed intertly on his face; che turned her gaze quickly away. His feelings were a very difficult mixture. He regarded her as someone whs> had turned to him for aid in this unfriendly desert, someone more helpâ€" less than himself, whom ‘he must proâ€" te?t if possible; he honestly believed that her brother Ormond had misled her into her hostile attitude towards Disappearance of Elk Lake Woman Being Further Inâ€" vestigated. She found it difficult to meet his eyes when he smiled in a goodâ€"humourâ€" ed fashion and said: They rode on over the sweeping unâ€" dulations of the sand; the camels‘ feet sank deep into the soft surface. Away cn the north>rn horizon in the wind‘s quarter was a low, foggy haze. Guthrie gazed at this as he rode, and Lynne watched him surreptitiously as he stared, stronzâ€"jawed and eagleâ€"eyed, into the distance. Police Still Seek Word of Mrs. Dolan "Part of the way." "Then we‘ll make for these hilis, and when we get in sight of the camp I‘ll leave you. Do you think you could manâ€" age to make the rest of the way alone?" said Guthrie. "Yes, of course I could!" said Lynne, though she pictured the situation which would arise when they had ridden on to those hills, and past them, without seeing any sign of camp. "Well ;« we‘ll see! If it‘s gettin I won‘t leave you!" there "Then it wouldn‘t have been exactly here that I came over. But that peak was behind me all the way over here from the camp!" Lynne exclaimed, as she pcointed to a conical peak towards the scuthern end of the range.
