 Mrs. Weldon's first feeling on being left alone was a sense of relief at having a week's respite1. She had no trust in Negoro's honesty, but she knew well enough that their "marketable value" would secure them from any personal danger, and she had time to consider whether some compromise might be effected by which her husband might be spared the necessity of coming to Kazonndé. Upon the receipt of a letter from herself, he would not hesitate for a moment in undertaking2 the journey, but she entertained no little fear that after all perhaps her own departure might not be permitted; the slightest caprice on the part of Queen Moena would detain her as a captive, whilst as to Negoro, if once he should get the ransom3 he wanted, he would take no further pains in the matter.
 
Accordingly, she resolved to make the proposition that she should be conveyed to some point upon the coast, where the bargain could be concluded without Mr. Weldon's coming up the country.
 
She had to weigh all the consequences that would follow any refusal on her part to fall in with Negoro's demands. Of course, he would spend the interval4 in preparing for his start to America, and when he should come back and find her still hesitating, was it not likely that he would find scope for his revenge in suggesting that she must be separated from her child.
 
The very thought sent a pang5 through her heart, and she clasped her little boy tenderly to her side.
 
"What makes you so sad, mamma?" asked Jack6.
 
"I was thinking of your father, my child," she answered; "would you not like to see him?"
 
"Yes, yes; is he coming here?"
 
"No, my boy, he must not come here."
 
"Then let us take Dick, and Tom, and Hercules, and go to him."
