Now the elephants of the Chief Commissioner's stockades gave account of themselves. Youth had returned to them courage had been restored. They clamoured to heaven that they were doing well. They shouted to the universe that they belonged to him to Neela Deo, their King! Sanford Hantee scarcely saw an impossible thing Carlin on Mitha Baba's neck!
Their hands met; and Skag's soul rose up without words, to answer a white flame in the inscrutable eyes. Early the following morning, Sanford Hantee Sahib said to his servant: "Bhanah, what do you know about cheetahs?" "Such little things as a man may know, Sahib." "Are you willing to give some of it to me?" "All that I am and all that I can, belongs to my master." "Is that the regular "
He decided that Sanford Hantee had never seen really black eyes before; the size startled him, but the blackness shocked. Skag had something to say, but he found no words. "You are to be informed that the only sister of seven brothers is a most important person. She is called the Seal of Fortune in India; which is to say that good fortune for all her brothers is vested in her.
I'd do it for you, but I need an hour in here among the trees, you know, alone. . . . If it isn't quite clear to me, I'll cock one foot up in the crotch of a tree until it's straight again. . . . But it's clear, Hantee," he added. "I'm seeing now the man she sees or something like!" Ian turned toward the deeper growths. . . . They walked in silence.
Gunpat Rao. . . . Gunpat Rao. The mahouts say young male elephants will follow a strange male for the chance of a fight. It's consistent enough. Yes, we'll call in Chakkra. . . . Are you ready to travel, sir?" This was to Skag. No array of terms could express how ready to travel was Sanford Hantee.
It was cold long metallic. It was invincible without pity. He heard human voices and the sound of running water in a dream. Near by, he heard a low sweet laugh. The eyes of fathomless splendour beside him were not looking into his, but they were full of that love which transcends fear. And the birthright of Sanford Hantee rose up in him. "That's right, come on!" he cried to her.
Then we won't go out this morning, Nels and I. It'll be the time to get some of that little knowledge of yours about cheetahs." It seemed to Skag that the uncertainty about just why Bhanah had come to him, was cleared away; and there was a dignity about the man which he liked. It was all right. "Sanford Hantee Sahib should not go to find cheetahs before he knows his dog," Bhanah began.
Five days ago Sanford Hantee Sahib had come by train from far in the interior, beyond the Grass Jungle country, to meet an Indian Sahib of high rank in the railway service, at Poona. It was an appointment personal to himself; no one knew the purpose. Also, why Cadman Sahib had not come together with him was not known, unless "Oh, Ayah! I don't care a bit about Cadman Sahib will you be good enough.
A field of palm-tops stretched away from their feet to the sea. They told him the city of Bombay was hidden under those fronds. "And now you understand, Cadman," the Doctor was saying, "there's your own room and one next for your friend Hantee. Your traps will be up before you sleep, which may not be early, for I've a tamasha on for you this night you remember, I enjoy dinner in the morning?"
Presently Chakkra would fall to talking to his master, muttering in a kind of thrall at the thing he saw in the countenance of the American who had touched bottom. Sanford Hantee was facing the worst of the past and an impossible future, having neither hate nor pity, now.
