Copyright, 1924, by Star.) 1 say mo living man could endure |as the master endured. As he spoke to me in the forest that night, I ba- |gan to think that everything but the will was gone; body, soul—every- thing which goes to make up the moving, whimpering, purposeless thing we call m@gn—everything but the will. The will and the vision. Yet, as I leok back on the years Ithat began that night, remembering the love I bore him, and the tender, winning, ungrudging patient some- thing that emanated from bim to wrap me to him, I hope and pray that | more than the will was left. “And 80, he finished, “and so, my dear Seton, that afternoon when I opened my eyes and saw you, 1 be- |lieved that at last I had found my lieutenant. I belleved that at last the path - toward realizing my dream was opened for me. Are you the man, Sholto Seton? Think well, for here is the least I will take from you, the most I will offer you. Thres years of belfef, of unanswered devotion to my cause. Three years of unremitting without reward except that cause it- self. I offer you no more. I will take no less.” As I rose from my chalr, my whole body was quivering and I was soaked in perspiration. I could not answer him. 1 reeled to the tent door and out into the open, then stumbled across the clearing to the riverside. I put my head on two hands crossed against a big tree, and, do what I might, I could not hold myself from a terrible dry sobbing. ‘When I lifted my head, a faint light was beginning to steal through the leaves overhead, and birds were be- ginning to chatter. I walked back to the tent. He was still in his chair, s though he had not moved. Well, Seton?" es, alr,’ 1 sald—"If you'll have ‘That fs well,” he sald. “And now. my dear fellow, find what remnants of sleep you can. We must begin at once, and I have much to tell you vet.” nL: In the cool of the following morn- ing we broke camp and set off on the long trek back to Manaos. Of the Journey there is little of moment to tell. I had made my own arrange- ments for retiring from the wilderness, and they were fresher for being used a little earlier that I had an- ticipated. 1 had a bungalow. outside of the town of Manaos, and there I took the master and my two men. I had paid off the bearers a good deal higher up the river, and we finished {our journey on a power boat of mine. The wash-leather bag which I had thought contained geological speci- mens proved to have in it a collec- tion of the finest rough Brazillan di- amonds It has ever been my fortune to see. The master, in the character- {istically sparing way he had, simply stated that he had discovered a pipe of them in the higher reaches of the Negro, and his idea was that funds for beginning our work should come |from the sale of these uncut gems. I had to go to Amsterdam to dis- pose of them, and it was also agreed |that I should begin to liquidate my property by - degrees, so that suspiclons would be arcused. I left Grumstock with the master at Manaos, and took Higgins with me to Europe, where, from a list provided me, T began to buy chemicais and physical - plants for the work the master had to do. I had, in fact, to bring together all the instruments necessary for a small laboratory. It was 10 weeks before -the liner dropped me and my stores at Manaos. I found the master greatly recovered, and Grumstock very much installed as Dis body-servant, cook and house- keeper. Grumstock informed me quite gratuitously that he was ready to follow the owner—as he called our leader—anywhere. On this hint, I found it expedient to outline the plan to my two old petty officers, and I was gratified to find them willing and eager to come Into the seheme. Thus we had two good men, tried' men, honest and handy, as a-nucleus for our crew, A few days after my return. to Manaos we began our voyage up the river. At a former base, where I was friendly with a local headman, I was fortunate enough to secure a fine lot of bearers. Among. the stores they ‘carried were the sections of a good sized cance. Grumstock was an efficlent carpenter, and the plan was to finish our journey by water, after he had put our little craft together. This plan, the master assured us, was possible. It was perhaps ‘well that the plan included the dismissal of our bearers when we took to the water, for as we approached the end of our portage, it became manifest that the Indlans were growing restless and uneasy. I was afraid that they ware about to desert us, and I searched for the reason of their unrest, but found the more intelligent of the bearers unwilling to talk. It was Higgins who brought me the clue. “As far as I can make out, sir,” he explained, ‘we're headin’ due and proper for & place they call the Hill of Spooks. Another name they give it is the Wound in the World. = Ac- cordin’ to them niggers, there's a great big bloody scar in the body of the earth somewhere near 'ere, and every now and then you can hear the earth howlin” and groanin’ wi' the pain from it. It was old Brass-bottle that told me about it, and a scared nigger he was, too, when he said it. I got it from him by degrees, like.” I took this report to our leader: “Yes, yes, Seton,” he replied. “It is a point in our favor.

Nothing will grow on the outcrop, and at cer- tain times of the year water or wind through some underground passage of the plateau gives out a terrible howl- ing. Hence the fear of the natives. But, as I say, a point in our favor, since we may work unmolested.” When we reached the water, the f of the bearers at being dis- ied was evident. We had no soon- er freed them than they trooped off back the way we had come, and they were, I think, not a little scared for us. The work of putting together our canoe occupied Grumstock and Hig- gins and myself less than a day, and when we had her in the _water, wea found her admirably suifd for our purpose. She held our stores easily, and there was sufficient room left to afford our leader his ease—or as much ease as his pooor body would allow him—together with space for the ade- quate handling of her. In the early morning we set out for the mysterious plateau. I shall say nothing of the journey except that it was arduous. Maj. Boon has given a fairly accu- rate description of the lie of the land about the plateau. Its main axis ran from east to west, and the toe lay among marshy ground, thickly grown with bladed plants and the myrtle and veronica type of shrub common in the district. On the north, a littls basin lay under the plateau cliffs, and our approach was by a river which flowed from this basin, through = 80rge quite navigable, and bore in a westerly curve from a cup of land of which the plateau was the southern border. On the south side of the plateau another river lay, or rather a back- water of that river which I shall call the Rio Innominata. We did not realize at our first approach of the plateau that it would have been pos- sible to cut off several leagues of travel by making a portage to that backwater, of which both entrances were cut off from the main stream by a mass of fallen timber very much overgrown. We took Instead the longer way. Out of the Rio Inno- minata at a good number of kilo- meters downstream from the back- water we turned Into the basin river, and described a wide 10op to the north of the plateau.” From the map it will be seen that both the Innominata and the stream from the basin in the northward cup flow west for the greater part of their courkes, and that the former turns south at last to curve Into an easterly-running tributary of the Negro. In subsequent voyages the longer route I have in- dicated was always followed, and as a precaution against being detected we left the overgrown entrances to the backwater undisturbed. The basin to the north of the plateau was overhung by great lime- stone bluffs, which from the top must have hid half the basin's area, and this fmpending wall of rock was pierced by a great arch that led to a cave under the plateau, cave and basin being joined by water. It was with a sense of awe, having 1it the acetylene searchlight in the bows, that we began to paddle into the cave. The light but faintly fllumined the vastness of the under- ground cathedral in which ‘we now found ourselves. The ceiling was roughly arched, and in its shadowed height one imagined that a fantastic pattern of vaulting could be traced. Here and there stalactitic pillars of great girth gave color to the gothlo effect. We became conscious of tha roar and plash of falling water, then deep in the heart of the cavern we came on a waterfall in which from a height of about 40 meters a swift stream tumbled in great volume. “By Jove! sir,” I whispered to our hat a chance there for replied. “But you will find the fall the least of the wonders I have to show you. Bear over to the right, Higgins, please.” I now saw that from the main cavern other caves ran out on either side, several of them with floors slop- ing clear of the water line. Two of. these in particular, on the west, with. a common mouth to the main cavern; were ideal for docking and buildin; the airships which were part of ou: scheme. With our leader I wen ashore to examine these two caves, and he led the way into an inner cave, rather smaller than the other pair. “Here, Seton,” he said, “we are- standing, I am certain, on the down slope of an anticlinal fold. Ses how it main cavern. At the toe of tha plateau, which I take to be the further slope of the saddle, I found among the marshes certain indica- tions of the presence of petroleum-— that greenish scum which I dare say you know- I nodded. “Very well, then. 1f it can be avoid- &4, we do not wish to drill for our oil in the open, but I thinik if we drill here we may do so with a reasonable hope of striking.” We passed round a wall of reck into another inner cave. “If we block up this cave, having first made certaln that there is no other outlet,", said the Master, “don’t. you think, my good Seton, we shall have an adequate reservoir for our crude oil?” % ‘Why, yes, sir,” I replied, in_be- wilderment at the completeness of'the thing. “A few bags of cement would put -it right.” “Exactly. Now, on the other side of the main cavern thers are other caves 1 should like you to see. I am in- clined to think that we shall have our refinery and machine shops over there; And I believe we shall find am ventilation.” From the main mouth of the cav a ledge ran on the east side to widen out into a spaciows floor on the left of the big central cave. This was so wide and deep that it was easy to. pioture an extensive machine shop there, with plenty of room left for' the ofl refinery. Our power was handy it, for the waterfall was' only a few paces round the corner of rock. (Contin 1 runs down under the basin of tha.,
