Gertrude fled to Bela, King of Hungary, whose uncle Roman, a Russian prince, she married, and ceded to him her pretensions on Styria, on condition that he should assert her right to Austria.
I know the whole thing now. How your father left the money to Musq'oosis when he died, and Musq'oosis bought the team from Mahooley, and made him give it to Sam to drive. I can see Sam's face when I tell that and hear all the fellows laugh." Bela abandoned the useless attempt to bluff it out. She came opposite to where he was sitting, and put her hands on the table.
"Flea?" said Béla with an oath, which he did not even attempt to suppress. "Flea? No kind of a flea, I hope. .
"I wouldn't what, my fine gentleman, who tried to sneak another fellow's sweetheart?" sneered Béla as he drew a step or two nearer to Andor. "I wouldn't what? Come here and have supper with Klara while Elsa's precious friends are eating the fare I've provided for them and abusing me behind my back? Yes, I would! and I'll stay just as long as I like and let anyone see me who likes .
"What was the German like?" asked a Rhodesian, who spoke the language of the natives with the utmost fluency. The headman began to give an elaborate and detailed description, but it was soon evident that the pursuers were on the wrong track. "Dash it all!" exclaimed Wilmshurst impetuously. "We've lost the fellow what's that, Bela Moshi?"
"I came to see if Béla was still here," said Andor, as soon as the door had closed on Leopold Hirsch. "One or two chaps whom I met awhile ago told me that he had not been seen in the barn this hour past, and that there was a lot of talk about it. I thought that if he were here, I could persuade you .
Bela shook her head a little sullenly. She had good reasons, but it was difficult to explain them. "I got go alone," she said. "All right," replied Musq'oosis huffily. "Why you want talk to me?" Bela glanced at him appealingly. "You speak me good words," she said. "You moch my friend. But I go alone. I can't tell it good. When I alone I keep myself moch secret lak you tell me.
The stew had not been put on the table, since Béla did not stay for supper. It would do for to-morrow's dinner, and for to-night maize porridge and rye bread would be quite sufficient. Elsa looked after her father and herself ate with a hearty, youthful appetite. Her mother could not help but be satisfied that the child was happy.
Give us a chance to show you we ain't plumb rotten." The girl dimpled like a white woman. No walled look then. "All right," she said. "I come to-morrow early. I be your friend." When the next squall swooped down from the southerly hills, Bela set off in her dugout from the mouth of the creek.
She laughed mockingly and, turning, carried her box in front of the fire. From this point Mahooley, in the midst of the general chaffing, unexpectedly received a narrow-eyed look over her shoulder that went to his head a little. He promptly arose and carried his box to her side. Mahooley was the greatest man present, and none presumed to challenge him. Bela bridled and smiled.
