CHAPTER VL-On another expedkion the donkey on which Andrea 18 inounted runs away with her and she is for a moinent madto riticulous. White Man ex plains the African method of wife pur. chase, "obolo,"' She is horrilled. After ward she listens to the report of native runners that a herd of elephantn is in the district aid is invited to the hunt by White Man. They start down a. croco dule-infested stream for the scene of the hunt. The tracker itood lnbetl '-ievabll erecteel. itts off the ground. It was at thcoucth by an iefTort of will he hat suM pIded hiilteif in air, so still was he so wholl~y was his body coli erated U the -.l' of listening. Suiddnly hh1 widle nnoR10'rils (ivered with n vi:1 bI duttering and distendC till their oUt er rims showed white. A laoc of sensual and ineffable coltentl spread over his face as he Irew (town into his lungs that breath of tainted breeze. Ie smelled the prey; the wind was right. Presently Andrea caught the odor and her whole holy tremled as from an overiastering physical contact. This smell was unlike all others; the inind gave it color and substance. It crept through the forest like a dark cloud, an oinnous warning to all fraIl creatures to get out of the way. She felt suddenly cold andl(] glanel over her shoulder with a half-forined notion ot retreat; then her eyes fell on M'sungo and she for'got all else in an absorption that wit above fear. He had become filled with an es sence of youth, ais though years of life had rushed from past and future to fill to overflowing tihe clil of this one transcendent molnent. Ills ftce was tense bit alight and his Ordinarily gray eyes had attained to an unfathon nble )1lue that seeied to deny iens uire to the depth of his enotion. Ilis thin lips were drawn In the crooked line of a fired smnili-ai smile that struggled on the verge of an Infinite solemnity. When he moved he gave an indeflnite impression of diseim bodied actIon as if spirit alone passed oil, leaving flesh behind. Like a black monitor the tracker went before him. Andrea was suiddenly aware that M'sungo carried the big gun. Its dead weight of eleven pounds liy in his hands lightly as though It itiso were Sustained by it Spiritual force. She had not seen hin take it and there was soietlhing ghostly in tile muere fact of his possession of it. 11er mind was in at turmooll; she kinew, th:t upTon the taking over of the big gun hald hun111" someo vital 1n111struc0ionl to herself but in that prilinal Inlomtent of Sus~pense, mem111 ory was anl agonizin g hlk anfi1l nou hi ing more.

Not forty paces fromi where Andrea hugged her protectinug trun ik anid scarcely .wenity In advanice of M'sungo, the domnes of two trees toppedl the even mass of the saipiings about them. Into the shaudowvs beneath these trees ho was peering with toi intensity tihat communleated itself to Andrea. She too stared (desperately as though by an effort she might send light Into dlarkness wIth her gaze. Presently she was rewar led ; three shadows wIthin the shiatw slowly took formi. Once seen, theh adlvancedl In distinction uintil they stood out to vision as does the Coal Pit on a starry, mooniess night. They were three chlus, ominous, dusky, thundorous. Suddenly from one of them caime a rumble that rolled ponderously away through the sIlent world. Andrea, ignorant of the majesty of the Intes tinal comoititons of the miighitlest of beasts, snatched a fleeting impressIon that somiewher'e beyond the brazen sky, a storm wvas blrewinig. The white man still stood, tenise bt Iinmmovable. Giraduially Andrmen's senses gathered( to the fact that thti' uns~ m, Dauso, Hie WaLs wailting--wait.m'g de lbherately or w~as it as one whot Mandh fatally fascinated and prmalyzed en tile threshoid of' disaster'? lIer healrt was beatng with a deafening thbrob. She was sure tile itatives about her could hear tile equal tumult In theIr nwnl brnest. Then her eyes, gluiiled to the three black clouds, saw one of the lesser of them iove, raise vast blankets of ears and t1p them, starting an audible gust of wind. A great trunk wound and unwound, rose lazily to incredible heights, reached a limb and tore it with a scream of reading flhers frot the p:rent tree. The betist turned slightly to avoid the avalanche of boughs. Instantly the white man's arms swept into motion. lie leveled the big gun at an upward slant upon the still immovable central cloud and fired. All the silence in the world wits rent asunder by that shot. With a rending crash as of a thousand galling gis, one, two, twenty elephanuts swept through the seat of saplings and away. It was as though an angry god had StilIched up1) the forest like. a sheet an1)d rilppen(d it apart. In the terrifle whirl. wirld of soind gonme mad, the sTconid bark of the rifle was quite lost to the ear. M'sungo turned and automatically seizeit his stipIorting gun. Ilis eyes swepit fihe back trall, looking for An dren. She was gone. "Bathittib!" he roaredl. Tite boy ran to him, his face work. lng with every emotion known to the black breast-Joy, triumph, greed, cupidity amid fear. The last was pre dw'nunant and with reason, for M'sungo dropiwed his gaun, shiot olit both hiInls to the black's throat antd lifted him strangling into the air. "Damn you," he growled, "where's your missis? Where is she?" The boy's eyeballs protruded farther and fartiher front lils contorted face. "Here I am," panted Andrea. M'sungo relaxed his grip; Bathtub dropped to the ground like a nerveless sack but bounced up again, all his emotions except fear once more in full cry across his grinning face. Andrea laid both hands on M'sungo's arm. "It wasn't his fault," she gasped. "I started to do just what you told me, White Man. You know you saw me hugging the trbe. But when I heard the Day of Judgment right on top of me I-f just had to give it a run for its money !" She ilropled her head against him and sobbed. He put his arm around her and patted her awkwardly on the back. "There! There!" he said. "Don't. Please don't." Seemingly with out hils volition his arms drew closer and closer until he suddenly awoke to the fact that he wits just plainly hug ging Andrea Pellor. He pushed her roughly from him. "Here," lie sild in quite a different voice, "this isn't iy funeral. Comte and cry on the elephant." "All right," said Andrea, docilely. "How inany were there? I heard a troupe-an army of them." "You heard just one," said M'sungo. Dabbing at her eyes with soiled fists, she followed him to the side of lie fallen monarch ttroind which were gathered the natives, a sort of aized awe onl the-ir faces, for the dead bull was a mighty Itusker, carrying ivory to the value of eighty women. At M'sun go's approach their arms went up in a single gesture anl fron one throat they yelled, "Ba i-ye-te !" Scarcely had tihle cry of homage died away when a sound cane it) them t hro ugh the bush that. froze them iInto listening silence. Their faces exlressed uilielief but their knowledge was in sistent.

"WVhat is it?" she asked, "I got two," said M'sun~go apolo get icially. "Thatl's the one that kept tme wa'itinug between heaven and hell." "I remieimber. It was awful. But why did you wait? What did lhe have to do( wIth it, poor deatr?" M'sungo smtiled int spi te of limsel f. "lIe had a gr-emil deal to do withb it." hto ansiwe-red. "Until hte startle'l tenaring the tree to pieces and1( took a haltf tarn to (lodge the damange, hte was headed right downt our trail, wasnt't lie?" Andreit ntomhled. "Well,"' comi ntied M'sungo, kicking the mioutint of flesh at his side, "Just ais long as lie was facing us, I couldn't take the fatir tmark otf this old1 boy.
