Several hours later they were relieved by Chutney and Forbes, and thus all secured a fair night's rest. A scanty share of food was doled out for breakfast, as the supply was getting very low.
"Now hurry down, all of you," he cried. "You have a flask of powder about you, Canaris. Give it to me." "What are you going to do, Chutney?" asked Melton in alarm.
Wrapped in their own gloomy reflections they crouched in the stern, keeping silent vigil over their sleeping companions. An intense desire for sleep now laid hold on Melton, and with great reluctance he woke Guy and the colonel. It required a dash of cold water to bring them to their senses. "Are we still on this horrible lake?" exclaimed Chutney. "How long have we been asleep?"
You will be pleased to learn that chutney is a sauce, an Indian sauce, and on this line somehow or other they never have more than one or two bottles. I do not know whether it is very expensive. I presume it is. Perhaps it is because there is very little demand for it, a great number of people not knowing what chutney is."
Thus they journeyed for an hour or more, but no sound of any kind reached their ears, and it began to look very much as though the Galla had been passed unseen in the darkness. "He could hardly have kept ahead of us for such a distance," said Forbes. "I'm afraid we have missed him, Chutney." Guy made no reply.
"Do you think it is worth while?" "Worth while? Why, that is the excitement of a chutney fight. It is not that we care for chutney at all, but that we simply are bound to have it. If there were a bottle of chutney at every table, the delights of chutney would be gone. Steward," said Morris, as that functionary appeared, "the chutney, please."
The floor is a noisome kedgeree of broken china and glass, sea water, pickles, chutney, condensed milk, and other articles of food. But the steward, poor wight, is past caring. He does not mind whether it is Christmas or Easter.
The future looks bright and cheerful enough just at present, and ripping open the end of the envelope without breaking the seal, he pulls out a folded paper and reads: COLONIAL OFFICE, DOWNING STREET, S. W. TO CAPTAIN GUY CHUTNEY: Your immediate presence is requested on urgent affairs. Chutney looks with some surprise at the famous signature attached with a bold hand.
The river was flowing rapidly among scattered rocks, and as the raft approached a jagged ledge that cropped up from the water, a dark object was seen clinging to it. "Why, it is our lost canoe," said Forbes as they drew near. "Help me catch it, Chutney. We will pass close to it."
"Thank you," said the young lady, "I am glad to find that I am in the majority, at least, even in the matter of ignorance." "Well, as I was saying, chutney is rather a seductive sauce. You may not like it at first, but it grows on you. You acquire, as it were, the chutney habit.
