At last I got him away, and then left him with Skola. My plan was to wait till the sickness had made him weak, because he was such a valiant man I thought we could not tackle him otherwise. I had arranged with three or four men, friends of mine, to wait in and near this empty house, and I promised to return about 10 P.M., when I thought we could capture him without much trouble.
" Whilst I was away, Skola told the Raja that I had poisoned him, and meant to arrest him ; so he got up — in spite o...f his sickness — seized his weapons 2i8 THE REAL MALAY (he carried a very famous kris amongst other things), and went away with Skola to Panjang Biru's cot- tage. My men, who were lying in wait, saw him go ; indeed, Raja Abas invited those in the hut, if they thought to kill him, to come on ; but they dared not do anything, because of his reputation and his kris, which was said to make him invincible.
" When I returned, late at night, I found the whole plan had failed, and of course there was then no chance of taking Raja Abas quietly ; so I had to return here and tell the white officers what had happened.
