The Nagara chieftain led them into the largest tent and Anne un- derstood at once that it had been erected by herdsmen and left for travelers, but not for these trav- elers, The leader posted a guard outside and then ordered the men to sit down and get out their food bowls that they carried in the na- oe style. The place was warm id becoming stifling. Anne re- moved her leather coat and of- fered to ladle the food so that she would not have to sit down with the men. “What are they trying to do, Doddap?” she asked, making a ay difficult task of filling wi. “They. will tell you,” he an- swéred somberly. to rescue us’ _ “A camp on the river bank deep in the canyon.

Then the leader came to‘her and she rose hastily. He beckoned for Doddap to join them and ex- | ained his intention to reach the | Priest of the Nagaras and by or force if necessary, to | break his way through to Shy-a | Nago, As bearer of the sacred dag- ger he believed Anne would be of | use to him.

The man spoke with sha . im- | Patience and Doddap translated, tonelessly. “He says give it or he | will take it.” | Anne saw the cold venom in the white man’s eyes. These three | stood alone in the center of the tent back of the fire cage. The Na- ara chieftain had risen to his ees and was watching them, the blood drained from his brown face. Anne, her back to the door, slowly drew out the dagger, won- dering desperately if there was any use she could make of it’ to # her freedom, If she struck im with the weapon she would be helpless, at the mercy of the others. To use it on herself might be the last resort, She thought of the native taboo without much hope he would be impressed. ‘Tell him,” she directed Dod- dap, “that unless he has the right, the touch of this weapon means death,” In answer the man gave a short mirthless laugh and took a threat- ening e4 towards her. Anne snatched the knife from its sheath and held it in her palm point to- wards him, the sharp blade gleaming, the green eye glowing eye of a live animal. “Come and get it if you don’t believe me.” The man hesitated, staring a ;moment as if some _ instinct warned him of danger he could not see or believe in.
