of Elise. Marberry, owner of a coffee
plantation outside Porto Verde,:Brazil.
Vilak, her cousin, known as Attorney
D''avis, believes Gaylord Prentiss, an
ei emy of Elise's is' involved. Elise,
-Vilak and Lincoln Nunnaily, an old
chemist and friend, travel.. to Villapa
'in response to a message. 'Oh the road
they are ambushed . and thrown'' in a
dismal 'old but in the jungle. I Vilak
frees himself and the others•_ • At Vil
apa' they find '.:'ut that the message
Was but a decoy. -

two pistols? Though -they would leave
the fazenda without a weapon,' he'd
s be delighted to give them to tier.• Ani
-'o€ course she needn't worry about
Villapa now. ' He was perfectly, able
• to take care of gaierything.
She refused a Igen which would
have 'seemingly, left him., helpless, ex-
pressed her delight that his condition
had so improved, and made ready to
' —return to --Porto Verde.- - -�- __--
Wilson ingratiatingly insisted on
sending. a bodyguard for at least a'
part of the journey in order' to prevent
a repetition of Ler misadvenAres dur-

Porto` Verde fazenda •Elis , •after con-,

Villapa. The rain, which had ceased,
for a few hors, began to fall again in

"But nothing has happened.' ' Be

Here. You'd'•better -have a cigaret."
'She took Na light from his shielded
;hand and let her fingers linger gently'
upon his a moment. Then • she put the
cigaret tb'•her lips. '
She -smoked pensivdy a moment.
"film-net-,-good-sober ':she said at •
length.. "You're only.,trying to keep .
up my spirits.. I'rn a bad soldier•. 'So
wretched that I'd be given a dishonor-

army. This. morning you told the not
to go to Villapa: I went. You were.
right. •I was, Wrong. ' Then, when we
were captured, I. did .nothing hot sit
on a log and stare weakly into a fire.
You, though bound hand and foot,
first freed yourself and then freed me.
"Tomorrow I'm. going to be a still
worse soldier. I'm going to run ,away.
