About eight o'clock at night, on a lonely stretch of road, the wheel came off. We got out, and our postilions stood silently regarding matters. None of us could speak Italian, they could not speak French; but the driver at last conveyed the idea that for five francs he could get a man to come and mend the wheel. The five francs were promised, and he untackled a horse and rode off.
He knew a million Chances untackled yet. "Get me a horse!" THAT was a strange ride of Mahommed Gunga's, and a fateful one more full of portent for the British Raj in India than he, or the British, or the men amid whose homes he rode could ever have anticipated.
