I offer a humble apology for the slang I have used in these pages, but it has seemed almost impossible to describe the scenes in connection with Jerusalem and Cairo without it--in fact, I couldn't help it!
I regret exceedingly that the anonymous character of this little effort will not permit me to mention the names of many men and women who, by their good-fellows.h.i.+p, sincerity and helpfulness, a.s.sisted one another to pa.s.s the time and make things "go," when sometimes the going was far from good.
If in any of these lines I have given offence I hope to be pardoned, as none is intended. Every one knows that a succession of compliments and eulogies makes uninteresting reading, therefore I feel sure of being thoroughly understood; and further, I should like to add that I believe the formula, "I move we adjourn," will be appreciated by the patient and, I hope, forgiving reader. At this stage of the proceedings the aeroplane must be lowered to kiss the dew and so glide into its hangar, regrets being current that we had not the pleasure of Messrs. Cook and Peary's company as pa.s.sengers.
THE AUTHOR.
THE END
