Dedication

To the Memory of the Child

Nada Burnham,

who "bound all to her" and, while her father cut his way through
the hordes of the Ingobo Regiment, perished of the hardships of
war at Buluwayo on 19th May, 1896, I dedicate these tales—and
more particularly the last, that of a Faith which triumphed over
savagery and death.

H. Rider Haggard.
