Simon threw down the letter, walked round the room, then picked it up, sat down on the edge of the bed and slowly read it again. Reasons which are complicated . . . What did that mean? Was she secretly married to von Bethman, or more to the point, was she in the employ of the German Government and - he must face it - a spy, working for Bismarck? Perhaps the two together? That would explain her coming to his room to look for Brand’s letter. Or, and his heart lifted for a moment, was she seeking some kind of keepsake to remember him by? Eventually Simon folded the letter, held it to his nostrils again, closed his eyes and sighed. No use pursuing it - he had a job to do. He carefully put the folded sheet away in the breast pocket of his shirt, stood and took a deep breath.

Down below, the other two were waiting. Without a word, Simon mounted his horse, pulled its head around and headed the little party away east out of Bloemfontein, towards Natal and the war that awaited them.
