Text Appearing Before Image:

This being firmlylashed, the creatures could only snap at him; the THE HAUNTS OF SLAVERY 151 buoyant wood prevented them from carrying him underwater. It is said they tore him to pieces, and one canimagine what torture he must have suffered as he layhelplessly looking at the green-eyed monsters swimmingaround the raft, and trying to get a favourable oppor-tunity of biting off a limb. When he was nearly torn topieces the Arabs amused themselves, as they sat, byfiring at the crocodiles. After a brief holiday in the Old Country, Swannsevered his connection with the Missionary Societyand accepted an offer from the Government to co-operate with Sir Harry Johnston in maintaining orderand punishing wrongdoers in a land in which he hadalready lived for so many years.
