CHAPTER III.

Day went on her knees and bent
over the prostrate form.
Are you hurt?" she asked in a
somewhat shaken little voice. But no
answer came She tried to draw the
mans arm from under him. 1t was
limp and powerless. like that of .he
dead.
'Oh. God, grant that he Is not dead"
Day whispered. In an awe-stricken
voice. She was young and strong. and
the warm blood OF youth flowed
through her veins. 1t sent shudder
to her inmost heart to think that the
man whom she had seen few Sec
onds ago as full of youthful health
and energy as she herself might pe
lying now cold. supine. without sight
or hearing dead.

her head. and the thunder rattling:

Then. swift as an arrow, 1t flashed

Captain Eben Luce OF New England

pinch without finding some way out OF

laboring In a gale right in sight of his
own home he demonstrated his cool
ness and ingenuity In a manner that
was never tried before. IL he could
get line TO land there was some
chance OF saving the lives Of his wife
and his crew. but II seemed impossl-

Ice, but II fell short. a llfe-boat that
he sent ashore was swampcd in the
surf and those who manned II Were
drowned. No human being could swim
IN such sea. and ii seemed to the
Deiehbors who were watching from
the shore that Captain Luce and all on
board were doomed unless the storm
subsided. But Captain Eben had his
wits with him. and. loosening the hal
yard from the mainmaist. he made one
end fast to the hind leg OF pig he
had in pen on deck and threw the
porker overheard. The instincts of
self preservation and muscular
strength enabled the pig to make the
shore although for several minutes he
was tossed backward and forward
helplessly by the breakers. The crowd
on the beach hauled in the halyard,
then n heavier rope which Captain
Eben had lashed to ii and finally IA
hawser. on which the whole ships
was rescued.
