1. EC: Duo is unable to account for the expression he sees reflected in the face of Memri, but without a word Memri turns from Duo and starts out to the mountain trail, and for many minutes there can be heard the call that makes each and every person in hearing stop to listen and wonder what is the meaning of the awakening cry.

2. This, natives know and others by hearsay, is the original cry of the High Priests of the Sun when some unusual condition or circumstance has arisen. This causes consternation in everyone. Seemingly, those in the ballroom are the first to gain control of themselves - and the revelry goes on as before.

3. After some time Duo gets himself together sufficiently to return to the ballroom, and to try and seek out Rena. He finds her in conversation with Stone. A general banter ensues between the three until they are disturbed by others of her party.

4. The President leads Rena away, and the men turn to the business in hand - the search and the draining or stopping of water for the search of the lost gold.

5. After a time, the gold is discovered by Haas, and great quantities are taken from the cache and brought in to the President.

6. The division between state and finder is attempted. Duo gives the expression of the belief that a portion of this should be given to his people or the Incas. Then there is a discussion between the President and the American Consul, and it is finally settled in a manner satisfactory to the representatives of the Incas - yet not satisfactory to Duo.

7. With the return of Memri to the mountains, there is soon made the call for all worshippers of Incal together - and there is such a gathering as has not been made for many ages; the meeting being for believers only.

8. In this meeting we find Memri is all excited over the conditions that have arisen; that the Sun God has allowed the white man to remove part of their gold. In this he sees the demand for a sacrifice to be offered Incal, who has been allowed to remain unsatisfied for many years. With much speech and gesticulation, the choice is to be made of she

who has defied the traditions - or, with the conditions surrounding her, have not the gods pointed out that one who is pure enough to be offered as the Bride of the Incal?

9. With this decision by Memri and the High Priests, that the sacrifice or bride must be given the Incal, they set about ways and means by which she may be obtained. Memri was for taking the maiden unawares, or bringing her to the temple to bide the time when she should be given to the Incal. But with the powerful appeal as made to the group of Priests by Duo, he is finally given the authority to secure this fair maiden for the rites of the Incal Bride. Duo returns to Cuzon, and finds the President and the Consul with the group preparing to return to New York since their quest has proven successful. They had found nothing save the gold, yet all were excited about the meeting which had been held in the mountains - and question Duo.

10. Rena feels that her brother has been drawn into this in some manner and fears for his safety, and attempts to cajole out of Duo what has happened in the mountains. He, taking advantage of her interest, attempts to induce her to go to the Temple with him again. And when she refuses he, after study, approaches Stone and Haas with the information that they have only begun to find the real treasure, and promises he will take them to the Temple and show them all the wonders of the first Incas, and more gold than has ever been seen at one time.

11. This appeals to the desire in Stone's make-up to become the ruler of the gold of the world, and for the time he forgets all save the greed of gold, and gives in and goes with Duo to the Temple and is shown the treasure house of the Incas, with its many inner Temples and Courts, and the chamber wherein all the finery in jewels and gold of the Incas has been stored for thousands of years. ears.
