110

Inch by inch he retreated 113

Never leave a house to the servants, my dear! 118

I may stay, mayn't I? 123

I advanced on my hands and knees to the edge of the precipice 129

I gripped the rope and let myself down 132

I rolled and slid down 136

Painting the sign-board 148

The urbane old gentleman 150

He went on dictating for just an hour 153

He bowed to us each separately 156

I waited breathless 164

What, you here! he cried 168

He read them, cruel man, before my very eyes 174

'Tis Doctor Macloghlen, he answered 177

Too much Nile 181

Emphasis 184

Riding a camel does not greatly differ from sea-sickness 186

Her agitation was evident 189

Crouching by the rocks sat our mysterious stranger 194

I am the Maharajah of Moozuffernuggar 227

A tiger-hunt is not a thing to be got up lightly 238

It went off unexpectedly 245

I saw him now the Oriental despot 248

It's I who am the winnah!
