THE BOY MAGICIAN;
OR,
THE SECRETS OF THE SEA,
CHAPTER I.


THE PRISONER OF MID-oCEAN.
Late one summer afternoon, a dozen
years ago, "A solitary white man stood be-
fore an idolatrous temple on an island in
the South Pacific.
He was of middle age, tall, thin and
gaunt, with rugged features and sorrowful
eyes, and with every sign of goodness and
intelligence.
Beside him was grim stone idol, in gro
tesque human form, more than twice as
tall as himself, which he had just finished,
ms was indicated by the mallet and chisel
in his hands.
at is done,' he muttered. "And these
hcathcn little suspect that / have cut my
name and story into the base of this idol"
He ran his eye rapidly over the inscrp-
ton in question. 1t was as follows:
''The 9Th of May, 1852, David Lester, of the
firm Of Lester & Nichols, of Norfolk, Virginia
called az passenger from Charleston for Hong
Kong, ria Cape Horn, In the ship 'Helca' A
cyclone struck us in mid-ocean, the ship foun-
dared, and We took to the boats which oil filled
with the exception OF the one | was in. After
drifting several days, during which my COM
panions persisted, reached this island. The
idoatrous Inhabitants made me a slave in their
temple, and for more than four years 1 have
been doing mental offices and carving images
have been chained every night, and watched
continually by day, but have nevertheless made
three attempts to escape, and shall Soon make
Another-doubtless my last, I am resolved
TO succeed or die, preferring death to longer
captivity. therefore write these words upon
this idol, praying any one who may them
to report my fate, If possible, to my family at
Norfolk, Va. Finished this inscription this It'll
day of July, 1851"
