He could wring a Gaucho's secret from his breast; it was useless to attempt a subterfuge before him. Some article, we are told, was once stolen from a company of his troops, and every effort for its recovery proved fruitless. It was reported to Quiroga.
He ordered Prinsloo to launch airboats and make a search; cautioned him to be careful of radiation, but to take no chances on any of the Gaucho's complement being still alive and in need of help. While that was going on, the Sky-Spy reported another ship coming over her horizon to the east, from the direction of Bwork. That would be the Oom Paul Kruger.
During all this dialogue, Ludwig is silent, seated in his saddle, a very picture of astonishment, alike wondering at what his cousin can mean, and the burst of joyous enthusiasm it has elicited from the gaucho's lips. His wonder is brought to an end, however, by Cypriano turning round to him, and giving the explanation in detail.
Royd's native wife The negro servants The two daughters: a striking contrast The white blue-eyed child and her dusky playmate A happy family Our visits to Casa Antigua Gorgeous dinners Estanislao and his love of wild life The Royds' return visits A homemade carriage The gaucho's primitive conveyance The happy home broken up.

He makes no reply, nor any gesture not even a word to acknowledge her presence! Drawing closer she clutches him by the knee, continuing her distracted interrogatories. "Husband! why are you thus silent?
"Forgotten what?" both inquire, with a surprised, but not apprehensive look; for the gaucho's words were not in this tone. "Something," he answers, "which we ought to find at this very crossing-place. A bit of good luck it's being here." "And what do you expect from it?" questions Cypriano.
