CHAPTER XIII.
IN STRANGE WATERS.

When Dr. Walker had departed, the admiral packed all his possessions back into his sea chest with the exception of one little brass bound desk. This he un-' locked and took from it 8 dozen or so blue sheets of paper all mottled over with stamps and seals, with very large V. R.'s printed upon the heads of them. He tied these carefully into small bum dle, and placing them in the inner pock- ct of his coat he seized his stick and hat.
 "Oh, John, don't do this rash thing" cried Mrs. Denver, laying her hands up- on his sleeve. ''I have seen so little of you, John. Only three years since you left the service. Don't leave me again. I know it is weak of me, but I cannot bear it."
 "There's my own brave lass," said he, smoothing down the gray shot hair. "We've lived in honor together, mother, and please God in honor we'll die. No matter how debts are made, they have got to be met, and what the boy owes we owe. He has not the money, and how is he to find it? He can't find it. What, then? It becomes my business, and there's only one way for it."
 ''But it may not be so very bad, John. Had we not best wait until after he sees these people tomorrow"
 "They may give him little time, lass, but I'll have care that don't go so far that can't put back again. Now, moth CT, there's no use holding me. It's got to be done, and there's no sense in shirk- ing it." He detached her fingers from his sleeve, pushed her gently back into an armchair and hurried from the house.

sleeve. She walked up and down by his side. prattling merrily and sending little gleams of cheeriness through the gloom which girt him in. To listen to her he might have thought that it was Ida and not her staid and demure sister who was chatting to him.
 .sIt will soon be cleared up," said she, ssand then we shall feel quite dull. Of course all business men have these little ups and downs. Why, suppose of all the men you meet upon change there is not one who has not some such story to tell. If everything was always smooth, YOU know, then of course every one would turn stockbroker, and you would have to hold your meetings in Hyde park. How much is it that you need?"
 ssMore than can ever get. Not less than e13 3,000."
 Clara's face fell as she heard the amount. "What do you propose doing?'
 ssI shall go to the city now, and shall ask all our creditors to meet me tomor- row. shall read them Pearson's letter and put myself into their hands,"
 And they, what will they dor?
 stWhat can they do? They will serve writs for their money, and the firm will be declared bankrupt
 .sAnd the meeting will be tomorrow, you say Will you take my advice?''
 ssWhat is it Clara?"
 ''To ase. them for few days of delay. Who knows what new turn matters may take?"
 'sWhat turn can they take? have no means of raising the money"
 "Let us have few days"
 "Oh, we should have that in the or dinary course of business. The legal formalities would take them some little time. But must go, Clara; must not seem to shirk. My place now must be at my offices
 "Yes, dear, you are right. God bless you and guard you! Ishall be here in The Wilderness, but all day I shall be by your office table at Throgmorton street in spirit, and if ever you should be sad you will hear my little whisper in your ear and know that there is one client whom you will never be able to get rid of-never as long as we both live, dear.

surplus in their incomes, and who were loudly calling to the poor and needy to come and take it off their hands. Here was the guileless person who was not professional money lender, but who would be glad to correspond, etc. Here, too, was the accommodating individual who advanced sums from e10 to e10,000 without expense, security or delay.
 "The money actually paid over within a few hours" ran this fascinating adver- tisement, conjuring up vision of swift messengers rushing with bags of gold to the aid of the poor struggler A third gentlemen did all business by'personal application, advanced money on any thing or nothing. The ightest and air jest promise was enough to content him according to his circular, and finally he never asked for more than 5 per cent. This struck the admiral as far the most promising, and his wrinkles relaxed and his frown softened away as he gazed at it. He folded up the paper, rose from the seat and found himself face to face with Charles Westmacott

In less than half an hour the admiral was whirled into Victoria station and found himself amid a dense bustling throng, who jostled and pushed in the crowded terminus. His errand, which had seemed feasible enough in his own room, began now to present difficulties in the carrying out, and he puzzled over how he should take the first steps. Amid the stream of business men. each hurry ing on his definite way, the old seaman in his gray tweed suit and black soft hat strode slowly along, his head sunk and his brow wrinkled in perplexity. Sud- denly an idea occurred to him. He walked back to the railway stall and bought daily paper. This he turned and turned until certain column met his eye, when he smoothed it out and carrying it over to seat proceeded to read it at his leisure.
 And indeed as a man read that col umn it seemed strange to him that there should still remain any one in this world of ours who should be in straits for want of money. Here were whole lines of gentlemen who were burdened with 8

and demanded his authority to sell out some stock, and I have written an ex- planation to these people. In the mean time, however, have had to issue sever al other checks, so had better transfer part of our private account to meet them"
 "Quite so, my boy. All that's mine is yours. But who do you think this Pear. son is? Heis Mrs. West,nacott's brother"
 Really? What asingular thing! Well, can see Q likeness now that you men tion it. They have both the same hard type of face" ''She has been warning me against him-says he is the rankest pirate in London. I hope that it is all right, boy, and that we may hot find ourselves in broken water"
 Harold had turned little pale as he heard Mrs. Westmacott's opinion of his senior partner. It gave shape and sub- stance to certain vague fears and suspi- cions of his own which had been pushed back as often as they obtruded them selves as being too monstrous and fam tastic for belief.
 "He is we'll known man in the city, udu, Stlu ue.
 "Of course he is-of course he is. That is what told her. They would have found him out there if anything had been anliss with him. Bless you, there's nothing so bitter as a family quarrel. Still it is just as well that you have written about this affair, for we may as we'll have all fair and above board"
 But Harold's letter to his partner was crossed by letter from his partner to Harold. It lay awaiting him upon the breakfast table next morning, and it sent the heart into his mouth as he read it and caused him to spring up from his chair with white face and staring eyes.
 My boy! My boy!'
 "I am ruined, mother, ,ruined-ruined?' He stood gazing wildly in front of him, while the sheet of paper fiuttered down on to the carpet. Then he dropped back into the chair and sank his face ill his hands. His mother had her arms around him in ;n instant, while the admiral. with shaking fingers, picked up the letter from the floor and adjusted his glasses | to read it.
The Press., 1893-06-29

"My dear Denver," it ran, "by the time that this reaches you 1 shall Ee out of the reach of yourself or of any one else who may desire an interview. You need not search for me, for assure you that this letter is posted by friend, and that you will have your trouble in vain if you try to find me. I am sorry to leave you in such a tight place, but one or other of us must be squeezed, and on the whole I prefer that it should be you. You'll find nothing ill the bank and about e13 ,O0O unaccounted for. Pm not sure that the best thing you can do is not to realize what you can and initiate your seniors example. If you act at once, you may get clean away. If not, it's not only that you must put up your shutters, but I'm afraid that this missing money could hardly be included as an ordinary debt, and of course you are legally responsible for it just as much as I am. Take a friends advice and get to America. A young man with brains can always do something out there, and you can live down this little mischance. It will be 8 cheap lesson if it teaches you to take nothing upon trust in business and to insist upon knowing exactly what your partner is doing, however senior he may be to you.. Yours faithfully,
 JEREMIAH PEARSON"
 "Great heavensr' groaned the admiral ''he has absconded." ....
 "And left me both bankrupt and @ thief"
 ''No, no, Harold" sobbed his mother. 'All vii be right. What matter about money!'
 "Money, mother! It is my honor"
 "The boy is right. It is his honor and my honor, for his is mine This is sore trouble, mother, when we thought ou1 Gfe's troubles were all behind us, but we will bear it as we have borne others. :" He held out his stringy hand, and the two old folk sat with bowed gray heads. their fingers intertwined, strong in each others love and sympathy.
 'We were too happy" she sighed.
 "But it is Gods will, mother"
 "Yes, John, it is Gods wills
 "And yet it is bitter to bear. I could have lost all, the house, money, rank-] could have borne it. But at my age my honor-the honor of an admiral ot the fleet''
 "No honor can be lost, John, where nc dishonor has been done. What have you done? What has Harold done? There is no question of honor"
