The excerpt represents the core issue or deciding factor on which you must meditate, and is drawn from The Son of Tarzan by Edgar Rice Burroughs: horsemen riding thus swiftly toward the camp might be friends of
the prisoners bent upon the release of their kinsmen by a
sudden attack. Jacot doubted this, however, since the strangers
were evidently making no attempt to conceal their presence.
They were galloping rapidly toward the camp in plain view
of all. There might be treachery lurking beneath their fair
appearance; but none who knew The Hawk would be so gullible as
to hope to trap him thus.
The sergeant with his detail met the Arabs two hundred yards
from the camp. Jacot could see him in conversation with a
tall, white-robed figure--evidently the leader of the band.
