This latter we found, and the next day we started.
We ascended amongst the most magnificent wooded hills I ever saw.

'Such places for game!' thought I, till at last we halted at a clump of splendid oak trees.

Under one of these a grand luncheon was spread, of which we were all invited to partake.

During the luncheon a man rushed up to our host and whispered in his ear something which seemed to give him great satisfaction, for he at once smilingly said, 'Captain, I have found the men you are after;' and sure enough we saw approaching two ruffianly looking fellows, tied together, and being dragged along by men on horseback.

I hope they were the right men.
