The Voivode Peter Vissarion and the Voivodin Teuta had arrived with the "Gospodar Rupert," as the mountaineers call him (Mr.Rupert Sent Leger) on the armoured yacht he calls _The Lady_.

The National Council showed great pleasure when the Voivode entered the hall in which the Council met.

He seemed much gratified by the reception given to him.

Mr.Rupert Sent Leger, by the express desire of the Council, was asked to be present at the meeting.

He took a seat at the bottom of the hall, and seemed to prefer to remain there, though asked by the President of the Council to sit at the top of the table with himself and the Voivode.
When the formalities of such Councils had been completed, the Voivode handed to the President a memorandum of his report on his secret mission to foreign Courts on behalf of the National Council.
