He made me see things—things.’ Could you give me a few Martini-Henry cartridges?’ I could, and did, with proper secrecy. Upon the whole, the trade will suffer. This fair hair, this pale visage, this pure brow, seemed surrounded by an ashy halo from which the dark eyes looked out at me. There remained only his memory and his Intended—and I wanted to give that up too to the past, in a way—to surrender personally all that remained of him with me to that oblivion which is the last word of our common fate. ‘Don’t,’ I said, in a muffled voice. “We broke down—as I had expected—and had to lie up for repairs at the head of an island.
