 The Rajah Muda Saffir, tiring of the excuses and delays which Bududreen interposed to postpone1 the fulfillment of his agreement with the former, whereby he was to deliver into the hands of the rajah a certain beautiful maiden2, decided3 at last to act upon his own initiative. The truth of the matter was that he had come to suspect the motives4 of the first mate of the Ithaca, and not knowing of the great chest attributed them to Bududreen's desire to possess the girl for himself.
 
So it was that as the second mate of the Ithaca with his six men waded5 down the bed of the little stream toward the harbor and the ship, a fleet of ten war prahus manned by over five hundred fierce Dyaks and commanded by Muda Saffir himself, pulled cautiously into the little cove6 upon the opposite side of the island, and landed but a quarter of a mile from camp.
 
At the same moment von Horn was leading Virginia Maxon farther and farther from the north campong where resistance, if there was to be any, would be most likely to occur. At his superior's cough Bududreen had signalled silently to the men within the enclosure, and a moment later six savage7 lascars crept stealthily to his side.
 
The moment that von Horn and the girl were entirely8 concealed9 by the darkness, the seven moved cautiously along the shadow of the palisade toward the north campong. There was murder in the cowardly hearts of several of them, and stupidity and lust10 in the hearts of all. There was no single one who would not betray his best friend for a handful of silver, nor any but was inwardly hoping and scheming to the end that he might alone possess both the chest and the girl.
