The whilom young master of the house was equally, if less picturesquely, warm in his expressions of pleasure at seeing the old man again, and gave him his carpet-bag with instructions to take it to his room and to tell Mrs. Allan that he was there. The venerable darkey's face fell.
Yah, yah! ho, ho!" and he burst into a roar of laughter in which those around could not help joining, the darkey's hearty merriment was so contagious.
The two bodies still lay there Jim's rifle covering them and threatening any Indians who might attempt to drag them away. Every now and then, a black head would appear from behind some tree, but the instant it did so the darkey's rifle would ring out, the bullet would go whistling close beside it, the head would pop suddenly back, and Jim as promptly would re-load his rifle.
It was a lucky hit of the old darkey's, at any rate. An opportunity came at last to gratify a long-cherished wish by visiting a harem. Madame L , a French lady who has lived here many years, visits in the harems of several pashas, and invited me to accompany her. I donned the best my trunk afforded, and at eleven o'clock we set out, each in a sedan chair.
