He didn't like Rasta, and I made a guess that he and his weird friends were of some party hostile to the Young Turks.

But, on the other hand, he didn't like us, and there would be bad trouble the next time we met him.

Finally, there was Stumm and the German Government.

It could only be a matter of hours at the best before he got the Rustchuk authorities on our trail.

It would be easy to trace us from Chataldja, and once they had us we were absolutely done.
