l. observed the curious fact that, in
order to read a sign or a number, he
had to look at it from the other side.
In a moment he said: "It is No. -"
He described that man and others, but
their descriptions did not tally with
that of the captain, whose personal ap-
pearance had been infinitely described
to me. Here comes another man. said
he, from that room down to the end of
the Hall, a big man with a red face.
He left his door open. Guess he amt

brought him back to his normal condi-

troubled expression seen in the eyes of
a somnambulist on first regaining con-
seriousness came into them for Il second,
but he was utterly unconscious of any,
