PAGE FOUR THE ROAD TO SHAN L ON ita_Mobler Hanson YESTERDAY: Lynn Britton’s forced journey to Shani Lun to marry the Prince of that Mone golian land has been a succes- sion of cdptures and escapes, each more dangerous than the last. Now she has once more es- caped Temu Darin, the Prince’s incorruptible friend, and finds herself free, but in a revolution- ridden city about which she knows nothing. Chapter 22 Strange Meeting’ ‘TH sentry hastened down to! join the keeper at.the wrought iron gate fencing off the dock from a wide stone-stepped street that led down to the river, swarming with water carriers. Lynn saw a woman dressed in European clothes and carrying a frilly red umbrella emerge from the mob of watermen. She spoke to the eae kere and pointed to the junk displaying the flag of Shani Lun. After a moment he admitted her, and the sentry turned to conduct her to the quay. “She must be a friend of Temu’s,” thought Lynn. “And she must be extremely familiar with the place to be coming alone like this.” She remembered Temu had just told her that all respectable white women were leaving Lan- fou on the air transport. For a moment Lynn clung to the wall in unexpected weakness. She had thought of Temu as one above ordinary men and as her own particular discovery. He might flirt across a dinner table with an art student in Paris, or with a college girl in America, but Lynn had never dreamed that a-fluff with a frilly, red parasol would come tripping down the quay looking for him in Lanfou. As their footsteps approached, Lynn stiffened and moved out into the open. The sentry stopped and stared open-mouthed as if he Were seeing an apparation. The girl behind him came forward. At the sight of Lynn she screamed. “Lynn Britton!” ell, Peggy!” said Lynn on a full breath, “I didn’t recognize you in this get-up.” became lost and the planes went off without me,” Peggy said plaintively. “So I raised a red parasol to protect me from the communists and came looking for Mr. Temu Darin. The planes got away just in time. Fighting has broken out in the Mahammedan quarters and I hear an army of Tevolutionists is approaching from the south. But you, Lynn! How did you escape from the pirates? I thought they had taken you up the river.” “I broke away and swam back,” fibed Lynn. Pegay was so busy planning a foundation for her own position here that she swallowed the ab- sutd statement without question. They turned at the sound of a powerful motor boat as it shot up the river and headed in towards the wi where they stood. Lynn_ recognized its pilot as} Bula, the TESS Mongol, | who seemed to be equally skillful | with a gasoline engine or a camel. Surprise for Temu i lca stood up before the boat came to a stop, and at sight of | the girls, almost lost his balance | with surprise and consternation. | Joy bubbled up within Lynn. fe jumped to the wharf and came forward. “How did you get} out here?” he asked, and before | Teceiving a reply, demanded of Peggy. “What became of you? We searched everywhere and had to send the planes on without “T- went for a walk and got| lost,” said Peggy. “Did Sam go! on without me?” Temu gave her a sharp glance. | “Your husband did not believe you were lost.” And without waiting for her comment, he} turned to Lynn. “How did this dapoen?” eggy answered for her: “Lynn escaped and swam back} down the river.” | Tiel he Heer He| fazed at Lynn, at her high color| pA dsctiovces blue eyes. He} gaw in her acquiescence that there was a secret between them, a loyalty like the under- standing between members in a family quarrel. “We'll have to make plans for} getting out of here,” he said, and ushered the girls into the shed, explaining to Peggy that the jouse, a property of the} Prince of Shani Lun, contained an apartment in which the girls would be safe, he hoped, until he could make arrangements to take them away from Lanfou. He observed the screen cut) from the ventilator and the un- locked door. ‘Chan had reappeared and fol-| lowed them in, his usually inex- pressive face alive with con- sternation.

I thought 'd stay in Lanfou and watch the fun. I've never been in a revolu- tion before.” “How did you think you'd be taken care of?” She took off her wide-brimmed hat. “You're here, a representative of the powerful Prince of Shani Lun. You wouldn't let the revolu- SUBSCRIBE FOR THE CITIZEN—2¢ce WEEKLY. tionists stand me up against a wall and shoot me, would you?” “They wouldn’t waste ammuni- | tion that way,” interrupted Lynn. “They burn you alive.

He went to the writing desk, wrote a chit, and gave it to Chan to deliver. Then h- turned to Peggy. “Do you happen to be qualified to pilot an airplane?” “I think I am,” interrupted Lynn. “Not 1,” said Peggy. “Why?” She was sauntering around the room looking at the pictures on the walls. “Thought I might get you start- ed off at once for Nanking. I have a plane there.” “I wouldn’t think of leavin, with Lynn as pilot,” Peggy add “Why—” * “4a pomane think of sending er wi ou as a pilot,” retorted. 3 . = Chan came in with a m e.

Why not go straight to De- lun?” asked Lynn in a dancing tone. “I'm sure Peggy would love to meet the Prince.” New Flight _oe shook his head. “I’m sure Mrs. Telford would be bored. Some other time, perhaps, when the Prince is not on -his honey- moon. “Is the Prince recently married, too?” Peggy inquired. “He soon will be married.” Lynn didn’t like tre way Temu said it. She knew he was getting back at her for making the sug- gestion, but a chill of foreboding gripped her heart.

He looked her over. “Change into your heaviest dress. You'd better give the Russian fur coat to Mrs. Telford. There’s a Mongol coat of mine that you may wear.” _Peggy stared. “He talks to you like a father.” “Or a jailer,” Lynn suggested dangerously. Temu apologized. “You must excuse my brevity. I’m an army man. ready in ten minutes.’ He went out. Peggy followed Lynn into the bedroom and watched her dig into the bag that had been brought from Watch Tower Wells. “Where did those clothes come from?” she demanded. “Perhaps the gentleman keeps them around for his lady friends,” Lynn suggested flippantly. “That dress fits you awfully well,” said Peggy slowly. “You may be his aay friend. I thought you went into his arms last night as if you'd been there before. And the way he looked at you—* Lynn thought fast. “Don’t let your imagination run away With you,” she advised crisply. “These are my clothes, I'll admit. You heard last night that Temu Darin was trying to persuade me to con- tinue the journey to Shani Lun. He is the Prince’s friend, not mine, you can depend on that.” She spoke with a heated sincerity and turned as a rap sounded at the open door. Temu Darin’s eyes held hers for a moment with that elusive spark of amusement and -inderstanding and something else that had a “power to flutter her pulses. Between them, they had P completely bewildered. “But what really has become of your brother?” she asked Lynn. Lynn surmised that Sam had told Peggy his doubts of Dick’s integrity. “Dick seems to know | how to take care of himself,” she said cokily. = “If you'll come now,” Temu turned and they made their way through several divisions of the warehouse until they came to a covered waterway in which float- ed the silver and red low-wing . cabin plane.
