Chapter 11
New Trap
PRESENTLY they were ipeed
lng across the desert behind
galloping white horses followed
by Mackey and several armed
outriders on racing camels.
Said Anne, "From the way the
women in the harem wailed when
! left you'd think this was a funer
al instead of a wedding."
"You may be right," said Sher
wood in a troubled voice. "Some
thing has gone wrong."
"What do you mean?" she asked
quickly recalling the Princess'
tears at their parting. Her grief
had been excessive.
"While you were changing Into
this black traveling robe I went
out Into the street where the car
riage waited. A crowd naa coi
WtpH an usual. Among them ap
peared Doddap, still free, though
the authorities were combing the
city for him. He told me that the
Emlra Persian daughter had been
accidentally killed in the rioting
of the night before, her body
Identified and the fact concealed
by order of her father.
Anne was too stunned at first to
comprehend, and as the truth
finally dawned on her ahe cried;
"Then he Knew i was an un
poster!"
Sherwood nodded.
"But the Princess wasn't aware
of his knowledge."
"Not at first You apeak of the
wailing In the harem last night."
"They knew last night and
wouldn't tell?"
"It looks that wav."
"The Princess let me give her
all my money. She began crying
when she took it . . . said I
wouldn t have use for It any more.
I thought that was strange so I
explained I was doing it because I
felt grateful and would bt with
my parents tonight"
"The Emir has also discovered
that vou're the Birl to whom the
priest gave the sacred dagger of
Shy-a Nago. He d rather have tnat
treasure than his present throne."
"Then why did he let me go.
and let me keep the dagger? Grat
itude to you?"
"Hardly." said Sherwood with a
mirthless laugh. "I can't conceive
of a spark of gratitude in his cor
rupt carcass. I've always dis
trusted him. He let that dagger
to because he'a afraid of it He
has a wholesome respect for Na
eara oronhecv."
"But If Nagara prophecy aays
the man who marries me is en
tilled to the daeaer "
"He considered that, the lama
tells me, but decided it was no
good.
"Thank heavens," murmured
Anne devoutly. "No wonder I
have been feeling depressed and
didn't know why.
The carriage stopped at t serai
for a change of hcrses. Anne drew
her veil serosa her face. Mackey
rode up beside them. He waa in
high spirits.
"Did you get the one you bar
gained for?" he asked.
"Bargained for?" Anne de
mended, lifting her clear wine-
fa mwn eves.
"Didn't he tell you?" Mackey
oueried. "The princess came to
him. 'Will you bargain to marry
the white cirl?' she asked."
"Msckey," Sherwood objected,
but his friend went on.
"Blaze lust about swallowed his
tongue trying to ssy "yes ma am
ouick enough. They bargained
and she promised to put a bug
in the Emirs ear recommend
that he award the fellow his
Persian daughter in marriagi
"Along with a castte in the
desert." Interrupted Sherwood
"What did he mean by that? I'd
understand a castle in the moun
tains or in an oasis."
No Secret
f ACKEY put up a hand to stop
him and went on with his
story, "and she promised to sub
stitute you for the dusky gal if
this same fellow would promise
to deliver a shipment of arms to
a certain station on the border
when he arrives In Shani Lun."
"Well." gasped Anne.
"Then." Sherwood laughed,
"she gave me your note. She's
some schemer."
"Note? What note?" demanded
Mackey. "You never showed me
anv note?"
"Can't a bridegroom have any
secrets from you?" his friend de
manded. "Bridegroom! You're no bride
groom. You're Just a means of es
cape. If I'd knocked the Emir
down I'd be riding in the carriage
now instead of on this overgrown
Jackrahhit." He bent towards
Anne. "Miss Willard, I take it for
granted you want me to hang
muna as caperon Keep things
respectable like ..."
"Naturally," ahe said, her eyes
danemg.
"I see." he grinned, taking ad-
vantage of her answer. "Don't
trust him eh? Has he been"
"Pete Marker." she pleaded
laughingly. "Will you please stop
this teasing' How soon will we
reach Chuka?"
"By mid-afternoon at the rate
we're going." He put his hand to

his hat The hones were ready.
The driver mounted and they
struck off with a bound.
A canyon opened up Deiore
them and led down to a river bed
containing a flow of water muddy
from the storm of the night be
fore. Does Pete know that you spoke
with the lama?" Anne asked.
"You saw he was so busy tarn
Ing that I didn't have a chance to
tell him. But if we're on the right
road maybe there's nothing to
worry about and the Emir has
good reasons for sending us safely
along." She was aware however
that he aian i Deueve me aug
ment The horses had slowed to a trot
and then to a walk as boulders
and fresh slides made the road all
but impassable.
"I wonder if I could take off thli
hot robe?" said Anne restlessly.
"What are you wearing under
neath?" Sherwood demanded, fan
ning her with his helmet
She laughed. "The tweed I wore
In the airplane."
"It may be a shock to our driver
and footman to see the Emir's
daughter expose her face and
emerge in American clothing."
"Do you care?"
"Not at all. But before he
helped her remove the garment
he looked back for Mackey and
received a reassuring shout and
wave of the hand from among the
mounted men. "Since the Emir
knows," he still debated, "can
there be anv harm In letting these
men know?"
"Perhaps they know already,"
Anne suggested.
He leaned forward to speak to
them and received respectful an
swers. "They know who you are,"
he said presently, reaching an arm
across her shoulder to help re
move the garment. "And they've
given me some new information.
They declare that the Nagara
tribesmen are pledged to avenge
you should you be this sounds
rather gruesome but the word
they used was 'murdered'. So it
apneara that you're pretty safe."
"But you're still worried." she
accused.
"Doddap was crying when he
left me todav. He implied though,
that I would find my reward in
heaven which is really longer
than I wish to wait" he ended
with that engaging smile of his.
Friendly Enemies
SHE laughed and allowed his
charm to have its way with
her now that they were about to
part "Tell me more of Doddap'a
prophecy."
"when he first began to aee you
In his visions and to tell me you
were coming he vowed that if I'd
go to you, just stay in your vicini
ty, put myself in the hands of the
'Invisible One' as he worded it;
make no plans, simply carry out
each day whatever activity came
to hand, then fate would give me
the right to explore and preserve
Shy-a Nago."
In spite of herself Anne felt
stirred. "Do you believe it?"
"I don't seem to believe any
thing until I experience it But
I was so desirous of such an ulti
mate fate that as I told you be
fore, I performed the initial act
of faith flew to Jus Masor that
Saturday and found you there as
he had predicted I would. You can
Imagine my emotions."
They were passing close to the
water's edge with the river less
turbulent here In preparation for
a falls below. A pair of Mandarin
ducks lit on the stream and went
swimming about like a little team
held together by an invisible
harness. Anne leaned forward to
look at them across Sherwood.
"Symbol of conjugal felicity, ac
cording to the Chinese," said he.
"A fine omen for us."
"Do you talk like this to all the
girls?" she asked plaintively.
He shook his head. "Only those
I marry."
She glanced at htm with shrewd
amusement "Would you give up
your association with the Govern
ment of Shani Lun for me?"
"Sorry," he said, looking
straight ahead.
"Or your idea that an American
museum should not carry away
the relics of Shy-a Nago?'
"Afraid not"
She looked at her stained finger
nails distastefully. "I told the
Princess that you can take awful
ly good care of yourself where a
girl is concerned."
"I can take darned good care of
the right girl. too. Don't you want
me to be that way?"
"Of course I do. I admire people
who can take care of themselves,
know what they want out of life
and go after it."
He turned and rested an arm
along the back of the seat
"WoUd you give up your par
ents for me?"
"Why do you ask that?"
"A wife is supposed to give up
her father and mother and
brothers and sisters and cleave to
her husband."
"A girl is supposed to marry a
man who can get along with her
parents. Besidrs. you're not mt
husband." she flushed lightly. "1
didn't sign any papers."
"Women aren't supposed to be
able to write in this benighted
country. Nor have they the right
or divorce.
"1 wish." she murmured, "that
I knew what vou are really think-
ing back of all these idle words."
"He gave her a swift glance.
"Smart girl." he commented.
"truth Is. I'm afraid if I don't
watch out I'll fall in love with
you.
She laughed gully, quoting
Fletcher, "Tell me dearest what is
Love?"
