"When the girls come, we'll have that meal you've brdered for us, and then we'll ride back to the Casa Davis to hear how the photographic experiment has turned out. We éan't go chasing Gillies aimlessly about the island of San Miguel, because ' we don't know which way he's gone: but if Davis has managed to interpret the message on the scratched stone, we shall have something to guide us.

But I knew well enough that 'the remark was foolish. "She glanced at me through half closed lids. '""His name is Andrew Gillies,' she said.
