them; if I was going to do that, I might, but
he would not go with me. On the other hand,
if I would trust him, he would take me safely
over. On this understanding I engaged him.
No one could have more loyally carried out his
compact, and but for him we should never have
been able to cross the Mustagh Pass. He
went to work in a steady, self-reliant way
which gave everyone confidence, and all the
men looked up to him and obeyed him im-
plicitly.
The more I see of men like him, the
more convinced I am, that weak in many
respects though such men as these Baltis are,
yet if once they are given responsibility, shown
trust, and left to work out their own salva-
tion, they develop many latent qualities
which probably neither they nor anybody
else believed to be in them. Old Wali went
back to Yarkand by Leh, and three years
later, when I again visited Yarkand, he came
to see me, looking precisely the same, and
dressed, I believe, in the very same clothes as
when we had parted, and it was a real pleasure
to see again a man who had done me such
loyal service.
