The White Witch of the Mata.bele. By Fred Whishaw. (Griffith,
Ferran, and Co.)—The "White Witch " — " witch" is used, in Old English fashion, of a male—was certainly a wonderful person. Kidnapped at the age of two and a half, he did not for- get the sound of his own name and of the beginning of the Lord's Prayer. He had a charmed life. Invulnerable he was not, but a bullet through the bone of his leg did not make him flinch. And his clothes, we might say, were even more wonderful than himself. How long they lasted in the bush we should not venture to say. These things, however, do not prevent the story from being interesting. There is plenty of action and incident, and the end is all that could be wished.
