CHAPTER IX
TT was Ions past midnight
A He remembered, a few miles
northeast of town, a small oasis,
no more than hall a dozen palm
i trees and a shallow pool ot brak
ish water, where dally. In the
early morning, passed cameleers
bound from Mounetville for the
interior. He would spend the
night there and, in his privileged
character as a dervish, Join the
first caravan.
So he walked straight on,
through the sleeping town, pres
ently stepping into the desert that
reached out at him suddenly from
the tangle of hectic, encroaching
bazaars and alleys.
In the distance spoke the drums:
"rub-rub-rumbeddv-rub . .
' On and on he walked, until he
reached the little oasis, hours later.
Nobody else was there. He
stretched himself out to sleep,
wrapped In his burnoose.
The moon vanished behind the
clouds. The drums thumped
again, with vibrating, minor tone
waves.
. .
T INCOLN ELLIOT slept soundly
and awakened to the thin
tinkling of bells, the jingling of
headstalls, the soft thud-thud-thud
of camels' padded feet, the
creaking and rasping of saddle
leather.
He sat up sod took a look. On
the eastern horizon, where already
morning was beginning to loom
with a golden, wedge-like gesture,
he saw a caravan ambling along.
It drew near: a small caravan,
no more than half a dozen pack
animals heavily laden and tied
head to tail, and three Bedawins
astride lean, racing dromedaries,
short, stocky, swarthy men, long
barreled riflas slung across their
. shoulders, rhinoceros-hide whips
swinging from their wrists, their
jaws bound mummy-fashion
against the drifting, driving sand
grains. They dismounted; quenched
their thirst at the brakish pool and
watered their animals.
Ungraciously, after the manner
of their coarse desert breed, they
replied to the American's courte
ous: "Salaam ateykoom, yah Moe
IeminJ" with guttural, unfriendly
grunts; told him, as ungraciously,
in 'answer to his question not
that, by Allah and by Allah! it
- was any concern of his that they
were bound for the little hamlet
which was called Feh Zudjooim.
Here thought Lincoln was a
bit. of luck.
He knew that there the caravan
trail split in - two, one leading
northwest towards Thnbuktoo and
the ancient, walled cities of the
Sudan and the second dipping
northeast to the jungly stretch of
land on the other side of Lake
Tchad. .
So, when the Bedawins mounted
and Were about to whip on their
.animals with shrill yells of "Zid!
Zid! hurryl hurry!" he stopped
them.
"Let me go with you," he
begged.
"Why should we?" demanded
their leader, whom the others ad
dressed as Bashid Nasir. "Be on
your way, O creature, and let us
' be on ours!"
"My way it the same as yours."
"Then," laughing harshly, "let
your own two feet carry you!"
a a
ims American was astonished.
These men were Bedawins,
' thus coarse, unfriendly. Still to
refuse such a simple request to a
brother Moslem? It was unlike
the code of the desert, and he
. wondered what might be the rea-
. son.
He was familiar with their like;
realized that a polite inquiry
would bring no result The at
tack, and insult, direct, was the
only method.
So he cried angrily:
, "I verily believe that you are
. not of the True Believers, but
Christians or Jews, eaters of im
purities, accursed by the Lord

hid Nasir. "Pah before tills have

It was only after Lincoln had
jursed them roundly and soundly
