"Sir, "Three days ago a party of Chinamen attacked and severely injured the Deputy Conservator of Forests, Mr. Benson, in this bungalow, and abducted his daughter. They were ten or twelve in number and well armed, and over-awed the servants and forest employees. They have been tracked towards the Bhutan Frontier and, I fear, have crossed it by this.

Sinbad's, and it's mighty nice of you to let me add to the burden. I I hope it won't break your poor back. Now I'm going up to your bungalow and lock myself into your white bedroom, and " "Have a good cry!" he said, noting the suspicious moisture in her eyes. "Certainly not!" Eliza exclaimed, indignantly.
