Immediately Jarvo led the way through a strip of underbrush at the base of the mountain, and they emerged in a glade where the light hardly penetrated. Here were distinguishable the palanquins in which the ascent was to be made.

I shall go now, immediately, to the motor it is waiting already by the wall on the side of the courtyard opposite the windows of the banquet hall. I shall not fail you." "On the side of the courtyard opposite the windows of the banquet room," repeated Amory. "Thanks, Jarvo. You're all kinds of a good fellow." "Yes, adôn," gravely assented the little man from the threshold.

"Adôn," cried Jarvo, shaking Amory's shoulders, "did you taste the liquor tell me the liquor did you taste?" Amory shook his head. Jarvo's face and the hovering Rollo and the whole room were enveloped in mist, and the wine was hot on his lips where the cup had touched them.

There is danger about the palace to-night danger it may be for you. I do not know all, but I come to warn you, and to warn the adôn who has been kind to us. You have brought us here when we were alone in America," said Jarvo simply. "Akko and I will help you now. It was Akko who remembered the tower."

These were like long baskets, upborne by a pole of great flexibility broadening to a wider support beneath the body of the basket and provided with rubber straps through which the arms were passed. When St. George and Amory were seated, Jarvo spoke hesitatingly: "We must bandage your eyes, adôn," he said. "Oh really, really," protested St. George, "we don't understand half we do see.

But it had not once occurred to him to forecast such a contingency as this, or, later, so to explain to himself Prince Tabnit's change of purpose in permitting her recognition as Princess of Yaque indeed, if what Jarvo and Akko had told him in New York were accurate, in bringing her to the island at all. And yet what, he thought crazily, if his guess at her part in this betrothal were far wrong?

"Good Heavens," he groaned, "are you sure but are you sure?" "It is simple, adôn," said the man, "we came with this message from the people of Yaque. A day before we were to land, Akko and I I am Jarvo overheard the prince plan with the others to tell her nothing nothing that the people desire.

"Maniac, no," said St. George shortly, "what do we want to go up the mountain for if Miss Holland is somewhere else? Faster, Jarvo, can't you?" he urged. "Why, this thing is built to go sixty miles an hour. We're creeping." "Perhaps it's better to start in gentle and work up a pace, sir," observed Rollo inspirationally, "like a man's legs, sir, beggin' your pardon." St.

And when the lawyer said, "But, my dear fellow," as he was bound to say, St. George answered that down there in Med there would be, by noon of the following day, two determined persons who, if Jarvo would get word to them, would with perfect certainty find Mr. Otho Holland, the king, if he were on the island. And when "Well, but my dear fellow" occurred again, St.

Your turn would be the next." "What do you mean?" St. George demanded. Amory, with some incoherence, told him what Jarvo had come to them to propose, and heightened his own excitement by plunging into the business of that night and the next, as he had had it from the little brown man's lips. "Up the mountain to-morrow night," he concluded fervently, "what do you think of that? Do you see us?"
