The White Temple They were a merry little party, this group of explorers. There were four of them: the two American brothers, the little sharp Italian, and the big jovial German who was the delight of his companions. He was full of fun, and this coupled with his talent as a ventriloquist made him a valuable addition to the party. They were travelling through India; and thus far they had learned sev¬ eral things of importance, although they had not been fortunate enough to dis¬ cover any hitherto unknown spots They had learned that all through India caste ruled. A man must die as he was born; his sons must follow his profes¬ sion and absolutely no hope of bettering themselves was held out to them. This oddly assorted little party also learned that many things happen in India and pass unquestioned, that in other lands would eyoke much comment. For in¬ stance, frequently people disappeared and never was a clue found to their dis¬ appearance unless it were in the gossip, half colored by superstition, of the ser¬ vants. One evening as they half dozed around their camp fire the voice of Airah, the chief of servants, came distinctly to them through the silvery silence of the evening. And none but they and their priests have gone there and returned. And they go but twice during the year, and then they carry precious stones—ah, wonderful, indeed, are the stones they carry with them. I have heard my grandfather tell that in his day an emerald was taken there that was the most perfect of its kind in the world. Only six families have given, but they have given stones that would purchase the whole world. Ah, but I would that I might possess one of them.” His voice trailed off into the silence of the night.
