"Oh, Eliza, have mercy on me. I swear to you that I love you intensely; that I would be the happiest of men if I could marry you publicly and make you my wife in the face of the whole world, that " Eliza interrupted him by singing with a smiling air, and in a merry, ringing voice: "Und a Bisserle Lieb' und a Bisserle Treu' Und a Bisserle Falschheit ist all'zeit dabei!"
The shovel dropped from the grave-digger's shoulder. "Hop in here and help me roll him back." The grave-digger reluctantly obeyed. "This looks fierce to me." He wiped the cold perspiration from his forehead. "Take a rock and hammer in them shingle-nails and forget it!" When Dan Treu returned from his business trip to the County seat the undertaker met him smilingly.
That the affair had been planned beforehand, and that Acting Road Inspector Papenfus and others systematically visited the various camps on that morning in order to beat up recruits, and that inquiry was made in some cases to ensure that the persons sent should be 'treu, i.e., Boer or Afrikander workmen who might be expected to take the side of the Government.
The deputy looked his surprise. "What's the matter, Billy? What's wrong?" "Everything's wrong, Dan, everything!" His voice was shrill in his weakness.

"Oh-h-h!" she gasped in relief. "You'd better stay cached." Nell Beecroft eyed, with a look of contempt, the woman for whom she had lied. "Dan Treu was here; he's got a warrant." "I don't care I'll not go down there!" She pinned wildly at the loosened knot of dull red hair which lay upon her shoulders. "That was fierce!" She looked in horror down the dusky cellarway. "What ails you, Harpe?"
Dan Treu and the coroner, who was also the local baker, started immediately for the sheep-ranch, and Dr. Harpe accompanied them. "Ess looked about 'all in," she said in explanation. They found the girl and the Dago Duke waiting by the fire which he had built outside the cabin.
