I had no idea which direction to take.

There was no track I could see, except that made by our own cart-wheels.

On what did I base my decision, then?
I will tell you, sahib.
I saw that not only Ranjoor Singh's horse, but all the cattle had been given liberal amounts of corn.

It seemed to me that unless he intended to continue by forced marches Ranjoor Singh would have begun by economizing food.

Moreover, I judged that if he had intended resting many hours in that spot he would have had me summoned and have gone to sleep himself.
