"Man has been riding them for centuries." Dameri Tass shook his head. First on the scene were Larry Dermott and Tim Casey of the off course "Sure, an' 'twould've been my watched, each with his own thoughts, as the first visitor from to discover that the landing had been made without accident. point and Dameri Tass stepped out, an effort. "Do you mind the color of his face?" he blurted. "How could I help it?" Dameri Tass rubbed a blue-nailed pink hand down his purplish countenance Dameri Tass frowned. "Harama?" the back of his head. "That doesn't sound like any language I've even heard Dameri Tass grimaced, turned emerge in half a minute with his hands full of contraption. He held a box-like arrangement under his him, he set the box on the ground, twirled two dials and put one of the caps on his head. He offered the other to Larry Dermott his desire was obvious. Trained to grasp a situation and immediately respond in manner best suited to protect the welfare of the "Mandaia," Dameri Tass told "Mandaia," the stranger said impatiently. in technicolor? Begorra, he looks like a man from Mars." "That's what they think," Larry "Mandaia," Dameri Tass Dameri Tass removed the metal cap from his own head. "Sure, an' nothin' is after bein' the matter with him," he said. "Evidently the him not at all." "You can Dameri Tass shrugged. "Faith, an' Casey." Patrolman Dermott glared at him unbelievingly. "You learned the language just by sticking that Rube "Sure, an' why not?" Dermott muttered, "And with it he has to pick up the corniest Dameri Tass interrupted, pointing to a bedraggled horse that had made its way to within fifty feet of the vessel. "Now what could that The patrolmen followed his stare. "It's a horse. What else?" "A horse?" Larry Dermott looked again, just to make sure. "Yeah—not much of a horse, but a horse." Dameri Tass sighed ecstatically. "And jist what is a horse, if I may be so bold as to be askin'?" "It's an animal you ride on." The alien tore his gaze from the animal to look his disbelief at the other. "Are you after meanin' that He looked at the horse again, then down at his equipment. "Begorra," he muttered, "I'll share the It swooped down on the field and settled within twenty feet his eyes from the alien and the spacecraft as he spoke, and they bugged quite as effectively as had those of the patrolmen when they'd first arrived on the scene. "I'm Major General Browning," he rapped. "I want a police cordon about him?" The general muttered something under his breath. Then, "When the governor arrives, let me know Dameri Tass said, "Faith, and " he accused. "Yes, sir," Dermott said. "He had some kind of a machine. He put it over Tim's head and seconds later he could talk." I'm after gettin'," Dameri Tass said. Dameri Tass figure out just what to do with him. Never in the history of the planet had such a furor arisen. Thus far, within speaking distance. Administration higher-ups were being subjected discussed the more they viewed with alarm the situation his arrival had precipitated. There were angles that hadn't at first been evident. Obviously he was from some civilization far beyond that of Earth's. That was the rub. No matter what perhaps even destroy established religious concepts. But they couldn't keep him under wraps indefinitely. It was the United Nations that cracked the iron curtain. Their demands that the alien be heard before for the visitor to speak before the Assembly. Excitement, anticipation, blanketed thousands of feet above. It was the most universally awaited event of the ages. every nation, tribe, religion, class, color, and race had gathered in New York to receive the message Earth had decided that Dameri Tass was the plenipotentiary of a viewing developments on this planet with misgivings. It was thought this other civilization had advanced greatly beyond Earth's and that the problems besetting us—social, economic, scientific—had been solved by the super-civilization. Obviously, then, Dameri Tass had come, an advisor from a benevolent and friendly people, to guide the world And nine-tenths of the population of Earth stood ready and willing President McCord was as upset as the Dane. He shrugged in agitation. "I know almost as little as you do." Sir Alfred Oxford protested, "But my dear chap, you've had him for "You probably won't believe this, When he first arrived he told us he hadn't slept for a decal so we held off our discussion with him until morning. Well—he asked. The President showed embarrassment. "He used some rather ripe Irish profanity on us, rolled over, and went back to sleep." Viljalmar Andersen asked, "Well, "We actually haven't had time to question him. Among other things, spent the day whistling Mother Machree and playing with his dog, cat and mouse." "Dog, cat and mouse? I say!" blurted Sir Alfred. The President was defensive. "He had to have some occupation, and he seems to be particularly interested in our animal life. He wanted a horse but compromised for the others. I understand he insists all three of them come with him wherever he goes." "I wish we knew what he was Dameri Tass was ushered to the The alien frowned worriedly. "Sure," he said, "and what kin all this be? Is it some ordinance I've hastened to reassure him and made him comfortable in a chair. stars. I will only say that, without doubt, this is the most important moment in the history of the human race. We will now hear from the first being to come to Earth from another world."

Viljalmar Andersen repeated, "We will now hear from the first being ever to come to Earth from another world." "Cushlamachree," Dameri Tass don't understand!

He extended Dameri Tass shook off the restraining among the civilized planets." He hustled from the rostrum and made his way, still surrounded by guards, to the door by which he had entered. The dog and the cat trotted after, undismayed by the furor about them. They arrived about four hours later at the field on which he'd landed, and the alien from space hurried toward his craft, still muttering. He'd been accompanied by a general and by the President, but all the way he had refrained from speaking. He scurried from the car and your dog and your kitty." He shook his head sadly and extracted a mouse from a pocket. "An' this amazin' little crature as well." They followed him to the spacecraft.
