It was a few days after this last occurrence that Ignosi held his great "indaba," or council, and was formally recognised as king by the "indunas," or head men, of Kukuanaland. The spectacle was a most imposing one, including as it did a grand review of troops.
"It is well, my friends," said Ignosi, late Umbopa; "and what sayest thou, Macumazahn, art thou also with me, old hunter, cleverer than a wounded buffalo?" I thought awhile and scratched my head. "Umbopa, or Ignosi," I said, "I don't like revolutions. I am a man of peace and a bit of a coward" here Umbopa smiled "but, on the other hand, I stick up for my friends, Ignosi.
"Mayhap; if they are there," he said, "ye shall have as many as ye can take hence if indeed ye would leave me, my brothers." "First we must find the chamber," said I. "There is but one who can show it to thee Gagool." "And if she will not?" "Then she must die," said Ignosi sternly. "I have saved her alive but for this.
So it has all been for nothing. God's will be done." "Now for business," I put in, anxious to escape from a painful subject. "It is very well to be a king by right divine, Ignosi, but how dost thou propose to become a king indeed?" "Nay, I know not. Infadoos, hast thou a plan?" "Ignosi, Son of the Lightning," answered his uncle, "to-night is the great dance and witch-hunt.
"It is strange," he answered, "and had ye not been Englishmen I would not have believed it; but I have learned that English 'gentlemen' tell no lies. If we live through the matter, be sure that I will repay you." "Ignosi," said Sir Henry, "promise me one thing." "I will promise, Incubu, my friend, even before I hear it," answered the big man with a smile. "What is it?"
