I felt it to a great honour as indeed it was; for here was the man specially selected by Lord Curzon him self, the Master of Frontier Folley, and in his hands would be the making or marring of the Frontier Province, the jus ification of the great Viceroy's policy or its admis. sion of failure. I saw a tail, distinguished looking soldier, young for a Colonel and Sir more so for a Chief Commissionor designate. He looked a typical Englishman with his fair wavy hair and blue eyes which were half, hidden under shaggy brows that the tribes of the Border learted to foar when they contracted in a frown. I noticed particularly his strong yet gentle voice which a-nted in it the tones of an iron wil bat withal a kindly nature. The talk as is usuion such occasions was on the last telegrams, the new play of the 25 A.D.G., soma wld gossip, and perhaps 23 Hun scandal. Then when the men wore 22 loft to themselves I found myself next to 21 Colons! Desne, and saw that he knew of 20 my wish to join the Frontier au that ho was pleased to talk to me about it.
