Tile bishop was silent for a moment,
his eyes IL~ed on the sudden glow that
Illuminated Trevor's face; then he
said, "Well, my dear, that settles it--
settles it finally, in fact, that I can't
help but perceive that you are both
~lually in haste to repent at leisure."
He arose with a resigned sigh. "Five
minutes are soon up," he arid to Tre-
vor. "Will you agree to take time out
while I talk to my associates?"
"Most certainly," answered Trover
gravely and opened the door for his
lordship. . .
In ten minutes the associates were
persuaded; in half an hour, with the
assistance of lhe diamond nmgnate's
engagement ring. Andrea and Trover
were made man and wife according to
the ancient usage of the Church of
England; and Just five minutes at!or
that, Bathtub announced dinner. It
was high thnB, for in spite of the to,-,st
that she had had with her tea. Andrea
was faint and pale with hunger. Noth-
ing short of the stimulus in the ex-
citement of being married for the very
first time in her life could have saved
her from collapse.
That was a great and merry dinner.
The toasts that were drunk to the
bride were many, some hearty, some
witty; but the one that stood out
above all others was that in which she
pledged herself. She stood, glass :in
hand, and looked down at the kindly,
encouraging faces of the Your men;

CHAPTER XIV.
They were all early to bed, the word
having gone out to break camp at
dawn for safari. The bishop and his
companions were northw.u'd bound,
Andrea and her man headed for the
south and the coast. In "the (.old mist
of the morning they parted xx ith tight
handclasps and earnestly murmured
"God-bless-you's.'"
Incidents. following rapidly one niter
the ~,ther, kept Andrua's mind off.the
renting encounter with her old worhl
unlil she was actually on its verge,
Late one ~ffternoon tlmy came aped
the bay and Trevor waited expectantly
for her to recognize the scene of ber
ravishment. He was disappointed, for
the thin. insignificant strip of yello~
sand tueked under the red cliff dimin-
ished by distance to lhe l)roportiou ot
a railway embankmBnt, meant noflzlng
to her inexpcrlenced eyes.
At last he pointed it out to her. "Be-
nold," he said. "the beginning and the
end of all things." .
Amlrea no(lded. "I felt it but I could
not put it In words like that."
As Trevor, the white head of a
quarter-mile-long and glistening black
serpent of humanity, swung in be-
tween the gateposts of the hotel's im-
posing portals, the ever-opportune
Marguerite stretched his neck, raised
his barrel-head and brayed.' Above
that raucous cry sounded-a the sponta-
neous and uncontrollable peal of An-
drea's silver laughter.
The groups of mBn and women--
all but one---on the hotel veranda stop-
ped in their various occupations as
though t~aralyzed ; drinks paused half-
way to thirsty lips, cigarettes burned
uneonseious fingers, knitting needles
poised instantaneously---all but one
pair. The manipulator of the excep-
tion was a dear but very proper old
lady wearing a cap of filmy lace~ on
her plentiful white hair and enough
filmy lace on her person to make the
porch chair, in which she sat, look
like a stall at a Red Cross bazaar.
She was knitting a vast khaki-colored
sweater and at the sound of Andrea's
: laughter she gave no sign beyond purs-
ing her withered lips while she meth-
odically finished off the stitch upon
which she had been engaged.
That done, she raised a pair of
beady black eyes so wonderfully alive
that it seemed impossible they be-
longed to her wrinkled face and flash-
ed one look at Andrea and one at Tre-
vor. "Well, my dear," she said calmly,
presumably to the former, "lt's a re-
lief to have you back apparently alive
and well."
No sooner were the words out of
her mouth than she was swept into
Andrea's impetuous embrace. "Oh,
Aunly Gwen! Oh, you old dear!"
The lady defended herself wlth con-
siderable energy and was. beard to
grumble thaN even kissing had de-
generated Into a rough pastime. Hav-
ing rescued herself from Andrea's
arms, she said, "Now that that is over
you will please go to your room and
change from that outlandish circus
costmne; you'll find everything as you
left it except for a new lock on the
door."
Andrea glanced at Trevor and lean-
ed over to whisper imploringly In her
aunt's ear.
"Your husband?" enunciated the
old lady clearly. "Well, that's a relief,
too; but I prefer to meet him else-
where and after you have presented
documentary evidence. By the way,"
she added with ominous emphasis as
she resumed her knitting, "Harry is
still here."
"I should say I am," exclaimed a
youth in the trim uniform of tile Fly-
ing Corps, as he stepped out from the
hotel door. "Hello, Sister Andy." Tl~en
his eyes fell on Trevor. A slow smile
of happy welcome spread over his
face. "Well, I'il be d [" he exclaim-
ed fervently. "D' you know, Trover,
l've been saying from the firSt. "q~hex'-
chez the flying-machine.' Come in and
let me watch you have a drink."
Trover. quivering under the pressure
of the control he had summoned
to carry him through the trying mo-
ment aml filled with an immediate love
and admiration for Aunly Gwen,
paused re direct his following to a
nearby vacant lot.
"Is that marriage tip straight?"
asked Harry.
"Straight as the gc, od bishop of Mo-
n]a and /We olher missionary Johnnies
redid make it," replied Trevor.
Hurry wan thoughtful for a moment,
thee he said. "Well, Trover. I don't
know how yea're fixed for proof but
you know tbat throagh lean years and
fi~t. I'm for you from the break in
balk. As one sportsman to another, 1
congratulate you on puN illg one over
on that up-country animated leather~
sack of vintage wines. By the way, yov
realize I've got to wire hhn."
"Of course," said Trover. "Tlze soon-
er the better. Don't worry about An-
.drea's food and raiment," he added
fluslfing. "The truth is, I'm pretty
well heeled with the needful."
"Ym~ Americans generally are." sai5
Harry admiringly. "Sort of jolly n~

asked Harry, unperturbed. "They seem --" - -~I
to be rmming before the wind already
and with a fair lead." He ]it a ciga-
rette and snapped the dead match
through the open doorway.
"You think so, do you?" said the
magnate, his eyes snapping malignant-
ly. "You've probably never heard of
the shipping ring, but I'll tell you this
--the line tlmt takes these two---tw(~--
two whatchumay-eallums as passen-'
gets is ruined. They'll stay in Africa
till they rot."
Andrea stifled a yawn. "Robert,"
she said in her coolest and best society
voice, "if Sir Hammar is going to force
us to wait here for one of your own
steamers to put in--I think vou'd bet-
ter collect' that thousand pounds re-
ward."
It was the end. The magnate gasped,

smoke arrow propelled from Harry's
rounded mouth, Aunty Gwen pursed
her lips but kept on knitting; she
could not, however, altogether hide the
laugh that was in her snapping eyes,

her.
