Allan Quatermain recounts a brutal ambush where a Masai pursuer is joined by Amslopogaas. The chase ends as Umslopogaas, wielding Inkosikaas, delivers a decisive blow that ends the Masai threat and fulfills a grim vow.
Quatermain recounts the brutal Masai camp assault with Alphonse revealed as a coward hidden in a banyan tree. The group supports wounded Mackenzie and Flossie, burying the dead, and planning to remove the Masai. Mackenzie contemplates retirement after the ordeal, noting his wealth and desire to return to England.
The party parts from the Mackenzies and mission at dawn to trek toward Mt Kenna and beyond in search of the mysterious white race. Alphonse joins as a servant reporter warns of France and guillotine, and farewells to Flossie mark a somber departure. We push through Kenya, Laga Lake, and a high altitude crater lake, facing dwindling ammo and a plague of mist.
The Messenger promotes a home medical volume as a premium. New subscribers for one year at two dollars receive a copy, as do delinquents paying arrears and one year in advance. The royal octavo volume covers disease recognition, when to call a physician, and mothers chapters on women infants and the sick room, with endorsements from eminent practitioners.
