Some of the local shawls, however, or "Rampore chudders," were beautifully fine and delicate, and seemed worthy of inspection. Reached Umballa at eight A.M., and started again shortly after. Our horses to-day were most miserable caricatures, and it was with difficulty we managed to progress at all.

Like their small hands and their erect air of free-men, the Rajput atmosphere, it had grown into their created being, like the hunting instinct of a Rampore hound. The merchant, smoking his hookah, having eaten, observed with keen satisfaction the evening devotions of the supposed mendicants.

There was the sound of a gentle chuckle from the glacis where Learoyd lay. "'E expects to get 'is C'mission some day," explained Orth'ris; "Gawd 'elp the Mess that 'ave to put their 'ands into the same kiddy as 'im! Wot time d'you make it, sir? Fower!
