ILLUSTRATIONS

["'Go, I say!' cried the Leopard Woman. 'And hold up your head. If this is suspected of you, you will surely die'" ... Frontispiece]

["'If you will ride in a hammock, you ought to teach your men to shoot,' was Kingozi's greeting"]

["After the flat crack of the rifle a hollow plunk indicated that the bullet had told"]

["Their eyes were large with curiosity as to this man and woman of a new species ... Kingozi touched his lips to the tembo"]

["'Cazi Moto, take this stick and make on the ground marks exactly like those on the barua. Make them deep, so that I may feel them with my hands'"]

["The search party found Winkleman, very dirty, quite hungry, profoundly chagrined"]

["At the top of the hill the guide stopped and pointed. Kingozi gathered that through the distant cleft he indicated the strangers must come"]

["So intent was the Leopard Woman on the examination and on Kingozi that she seemed utterly unconscious of the men standing over opposite ... A more startlingly exotic figure for the wilds of Central Africa could not be imagined"]
