What
did
Dick
Sand
know
of
this
country
where
treason
had
thrown
him
?
Very
little
;
what
the
missionaries
of
the
sixteenth
and
seventeenth
centuries
had
said
of
it
;
what
the
Portuguese
merchants
,
who
frequented
the
road
from
St.
Paul
de
Loanda
to
the
Zaïre
,
by
way
of
San
Salvador
,
knew
of
it
;
what
Dr.
Livingstone
had
written
about
it
,
after
his
journey
of
1853
,
and
that
would
have
been
sufficient
to
overwhelm
a
soul
less
strong
than
his
.
Truly
,
the
situation
was
terrible
.
The
day
after
that
on
which
Dick
Sand
and
his
companions
had
established
their
last
halt
in
the
forest
,
two
men
met
together
about
three
miles
from
there
,
as
it
had
been
previously
arranged
between
them
.
These
two
men
were
Harris
and
Negoro
;
and
we
are
going
to
see
now
what
chance
had
brought
together
,
on
the
coast
of
Angola
,
the
Portuguese
come
from
New
Zealand
,
and
the
American
,
whom
the
business
of
trader
obliged
to
often
traverse
this
province
of
Western
Africa
.
Harris
and
Negoro
were
seated
at
the
foot
of
an
enormous
banyan
,
on
the
steep
bank
of
an
impetuous
stream
,
which
ran
between
a
double
hedge
of
papyrus
.
The
conversation
commenced
,
for
the
Portuguese
and
the
American
had
just
met
,
and
at
first
they
dwelt
on
the
deeds
which
had
been
accomplished
during
these
last
hours
.
"
And
so
,
Harris
,
"
said
Negoro
,
"
you
have
not
been
able
to
draw
this
little
troop
of
Captain
Sand
,
as
they
call
this
novice
of
fifteen
years
,
any
farther
into
Angola
?
"
"
No
,
comrade
,
"
replied
Harris
;
"
and
it
is
even
astonishing
that
I
have
succeeded
in
leading
him
a
hundred
miles
at
least
from
the
coast
.
Several
days
ago
my
young
friend
,
Dick
Sand
,
looked
at
me
with
an
anxious
air
,
his
suspicions
gradually
changed
into
certainties
--
and
faith
--
"
"
Another
hundred
miles
,
Harris
,
and
those
people
would
be
still
more
surely
in
our
hands
!
However
,
they
must
not
escape
us
!
"
"
Ah
!
How
could
they
?
"
replied
Harris
,
shrugging
his
shoulders
.
"
I
repeat
it
,
Negoro
,
there
was
only
time
to
part
company
with
them
.
