The news of our recall spread like wildfire. All the surrounding villagers poured in. The house and gardens at Bludan were always full of people my poor of course, but others too. Moslems flung themselves on the ground, shedding bitter tears, and tearing their beards with grief for the loss of the man whose life the Wali had the audacity to report they wished to take.
I could not wait longer, as night was coming on; so I rode back, for I could do no good. I felt sure he would not see the sun rise. When all my sad preparations were finished at Bludan, I bade adieu to the Anti-Lebanon with a heavy heart, and for the last time, choking with emotion, I rode down the mountain and through the Plain of Zebedani, with a very large train of followers.
We both suffered horribly, in spite of every attention on the part of our friends. Richard soon shook off his illness, but I did not; I fancied I could not get well unless I went home to Bludan. So at sunset on August 11, after we had been at Miss Wilson's rather more than a week, our horses were made ready. I was lifted out of bed and put into a litter.
