A story of several months' adventures in the land of the pyramids, the Pharaos and great crocodiles. In less than half an hour Murad Nassyr pushed aside the curtain across the entrance, but stopped short when he saw the children. "What does this mean?" he cried. "Have these Negroes come here with you? Why do you wish to see me?" "It is a long story, Murad Nassyr," I replied. "If you will allow me I will tell you it."

"He has influence which may be very dangerous to us."
