"Thou didst know Christ, lord, thou didst know Him. He will give ear to thee; take her part." Peter closed his lids, and prayed earnestly. The summer lightning illuminated the sky again. Vinicius, by the light of it, looked at the lips of the Apostle, waiting sentence of life or death from them.

That night there were native dances and songs around the big central camp-fire and a wonderful display of pagan hilarity. It had been a hard day.

"I've had a hell of a time," she said pathetically. "Been here hours thought you'd never come. Your man your man said I wasn't to disturb you." "Damn the fool!" said Saltash.
