KOSITA FORRES'S
STORY.
Accounts, of the remarkable expeditions undertaken by Rosita Forbes in the toast- known and wildest parts of the carth, are already familiar to the British public. To it she is best known by the name which she nequired at her first marriage, and she has continued to use it in her pub lished writings since ber second marriage in 1991 with Colonel McGrath. The authoress began her travels while still in her teens, and, save for an interval spent in war service, they bare now lasted twelve years and have taken her to al- most every country on the globe. India, Australia, and Afrien she visited with her first husband.
...Having driven ambulances in the dan- ger-zone in France until she became ill and was ordered rest, Mrs. McGrath set out for Japan in the last year of the war, There she embarked upon and achieved a strange walking tour from one end of tire country to the other. A world's tour in the company of another woman, equally adventurous, followed. It lasted fourteen months, and the pair of them speut only 2400 upięce for the experience. They passed through Canada, Honolub, the Fiji and Tonga Islands, Australia. New Gaines. Sumatra, Juvn, the Malay States, and Siam. They rode from Siam to Cochin-China, visiting the matchless mains of Cambodia: sailed for China, and in defiance of despairing British Consul set off to ride from Canton to Bankow, a distance of 700 miles, through country in the grip of a deadly civil war.
PRISONTE IN CHINA. ..... ...
** we were
After four hundred miles." to resumic Mrs. McGrath's own narrative, taken prisoners by the Southern army, who made us do Red Cross work. We had only Pears' soap, sail scissors, and a pot of her cream; but we used to ex- tract the hallets with the scissors. Luckily none of the patients died. The Chinese general was so impressed with my com panion that he offered for our amuse- ment to have performed "The Death of n Thousand Cuts," and was surprised at our polite refusal. The precipitate ar rival of the Northern army brought about cir release, At Canton on our return we just missed arrest at the hands of the irate Consul, who had firmly refused us passports for the journey,"
The story of this work tour is told in the book "Unconducted · Wanderers."') Rosita Forhes then turned her attention to Africa, where her dramatic journeys have won most fame. Starting from Casa Blanc, she first crossed to Massawa, in Eritrea. Her meeting with Lyautey had a great influence on her career. for from the inspiration of the great French pro cousul she derived that sympathy with the Arab races which has supplied the motive for most of her subsequent work. "Early in 1920, she said, "I found myself the guest of the Emir Feisal I was almost the only European in Damascus, I identified myself thoroughly with a hand" of young Arab patriots who were trying to make a nation out of the loose ends of a dozen "races. I set myself up as a champion of the Independent" Arab Federation, both in the East and in Eng- land, and everything I have written and every journey I have made subsequently has been to that end. In 1920 and 1921 I went to Kufarn, in Libya, in order to find out whether the Senussi were a live force in Islam to-day. I went to Asir last winter to interview the Emir Idrissi. who, I believed, held the key to the poli tical situation in Western Arabia. After my Libyan journey I wrote The Secret of the Sabara Kufara Me two books. Quest'and A Fool's Hell,' I wrote about Arabia in order to give Europe a true picture of a country and people who had been much misrepresented."
THE BAISULI VISIT.
To defend the aspirations of a people greatly-in need of Western sympathy" in their attempt to absorb modern know. ledge and to develop on European lines Rosita Forbes copceives to be the worthi. est mission of her life. Her story of the inception of her expedition to Raisuli ia characteristic. She was at Ascot when she received from Messrs. Thornton Butterworth a cutting from a London newspaper containing the quaint sugges tion that, as Raisuli was reported to be "retiring," he would doubtless be the next notable personage to publish his memoirs. To the enterprising publisher, who knew his Rosita Forbes, the idea seemed a second thoughts to be less fantastic than it first appeared. Would she test its practicability? The authoress set off. having first enlisted the raluable aid of the Spanish Embassy. The diffi culty was, of course, to ensure that Rai suli himself should be interested in the scheme. The resourceful lady
bad thoughtfully given out that she was pro- ceeding to Morocco on a sceret mission, trusting to the intelligence department of Raisuli's organisation to discover the news of her coming in the English papers. The plan succeeded admirably At Tetuan, so well had she been herald ed, she found the cousin of Raisuli, Mulai Sadiq, instructed to ascertain the nature of her mission. That can only be told Raisuli in person," was all the English lady would reply. Accordingly, with the permission of the Spanish authorities, who everywhere helped her moat gener- Qualy the proceeded by car to the foot of the mountains. At Suq-el-Khemis a special guard was in waiting, having been sent to conduct the intrepid lady to Rai- suli's hill camp. Never before had one of her sex been received by Rainali at Tazrit The meeting with Haisuli was g memorable one. And what is your mis sion 1 asked the redoubtable chieftain, consumed with curiosity.
>>
To write your life, Sidi (my master),' said the lady simply,' and the great secret was at last out.
By: "Allah !! came the reply, when Raisuli had recovered from his astonish- ment, but I can understand why Europe has left us behind if she has women such
