'I am the person, said Curdie, whom you saw carrying the things from the supper table. He showed her the loaf.

"Good enough," said Locke. "But I can't say I'm in any particular hurry to get anywhere. I've had the best rest and loaf to-day I've had in a long time." "We've certainly walked along," said Trask. "Oh, the old gal can go," said Jarrow, proudly. "Mr. Peth has kept her diggin' along. We've logged near ten knots steady. I never looked to march like we have.

"The same thoughts entered my poor brain also," said Anukis. "I am now going to show the gentlemen the danger which threatens her, and if I succeed Yet what could a serving-woman of my appearance accomplish?
