I was still about twenty miles from Poondoo; and the next day would be "monday 10 prox." I intended to start again at about two o'clock; so I had still a couple of hours to spend in what civilians call rest, and soldiers, fatigue; whilst studying such problems as might present themselves for solution. Pup was safe by my side, and I had nothing to trouble myself about.

How is that for aptness? I look at the thing in this way, Collins But you mustn't take anything on an empty stomach. I have some sandwiches here."

In the favourable interval of ten or fifteen minutes, I saw Poondoo homestead, six or eight miles ahead. In the intermediate distance appeared a moving dot, which, as I was travelling at a walk, brought my field-glass into use. Only an iron-grey man, in a pith hat, driving a pair of chestnuts in a buggy.

Thinking over these things makes me feel devilish small in my own eyes, but all the more confident, knowing that not a sparrow falls to the ground without Oh, d n it! look where the sun has got to! Good-bye! I mightn't see you again. I've sold Kooltopa." "Surely not!" "Ay. Crowded-out. Going to Queensland. They'll tell you about it at Poondoo. Good-bye." "Good-bye, Mr. Stewart."
