W‘fifi l Without much difliculty Lucille made i out from the child that the old woman j came from a chief greater than her ta- ther. who lived in a village not far dis- ; tant; that the wonder of her curative ' ability had reached his ears. and he ; earnestly prayed the white woman be § loaned his own wife for a nurse. that 2 she might be cured of an illness which seemed certain to be fatal. In an hour she had mounted the chief’s own horse. her very soul re- joicing at the familiar feel of an easy canter. Beside her rode the old wo- man, mumbling continually to herself as though she were keeping track of the devious turns in the wilderness of vegetation through which their way led. Once Lucille was conscious of a vague feeling of mistrust as she look- ed back at the squat figure of the old woman ambling along stolidly as some heathen idol. only her ratlike eyes emitting dashes of fire from between the layers of wrinkled. brown. droop- Her heart gave a great throb or de- light at this unexpected answer to her prayer. She had known there would be trouble getting away with the pa- pers just as she had determined that she must leave. There was no possi- hle chance of regaining civilization from here. There might be no chance in another place. but there was hope. and. while it was meager sustenance. anything was better than the strain at knowing impossibility. Anything ap- pealed to her so long as it embraced a change. for change spelled renewed hope. Then. too. Hugo Louheque would be temporarily at least thrown off the trail. Lucille saw from the glum expres- sion on the old chief’s~face that. even though it might bring him into trouble with his neighbor chief. he was more than loath to part with her. She also saw that the child. with the remem- brance of her own illness fresh upon her. had allowed her heart to go out to the wife in such sympathy that she had persuaded her father to permit the loaning. She smiled at the chief’s efforts to make her understand what he desired of her. smiled and shook her head as the withered old woman made an equally unsuccessful attempt. But the little glrl took the situation In hand. Lucille stood a little apart. watching the conference as it disbanded. She had picked up enough’of the language to make out an occasional word. but the gestures of the three had been un- mistakable. She waited quietly While the trio approached her. feeling that in some way the problem that had been harassing her was to be answered without further worry on her part. CHAPTER VII. A Chief Barrows From a Chief. N going into the little street , she noticed the chief in ear- ; nest conference with his daughter and an old native woman whom Lucille had no recollec- tion of seeing about the village before. Had she but known this was but an- other servile tool of Hugo Loubeqne’s what future dangers she might have been saved: )omlng closer. she knew that it was a stranger Moreover. from _.. -- 3 | ! i l I l l l She was quite positive some djflficm- ty would present itself in making an escape from the native friends who had fairly ldolized her from the mo- ment of the child’s recovery. But they, should be easily eluded. - mm A“ val“. “But l must get away from here.” she told herself. She determined to get away immediately. There was nothing to gain and everything to lose by remaining here. Primarily she wish- ed to find some method of getting back to civilization. The papers meant noth- ing to any one save Loubeque here. and Loubeque knew Where she was and his unscrupulous brain would find a method of gaining them. She must getaway. LUCILLE LOVE tie that“ day.
