have been no trick ut all TO swim off
to the schooner but for the sharks.
Look where you would, you could
see their dorsal fins cutting the wa
ter, and it.would have been rank
folly to swim 80 feet from the beach.
After awhile we retired from the
beach and took u tramp over the is
land.
We found fresh water and fruits,
but no signs that the place had ever
been inhabited by man. The goats
numbered fully 200, and the original
pair had probably been landed by
some whaler Or had fioated ashore
from some wreck. AS the weather
was warm we were not so badly off,
but Of course we we're anxious about
u position.
Granger was certainly insane. He
GOULD not run away with the schoon-
or, but he might sink her at her
mOorings or set her ON fire. He re-
fused to show himself or answer our
halls, and when night came 1 was
inclined to believe that he might
have committed suicide.
We made iii beds ON the grass
that night and slept soundly enough,
end when morning came and Gran
ger Still refused to answer our halls
we began the work of building a
raft to float us to the schooner. This
work was carried on around the
point where he had landed the men,
and by noon we had knocked to-
gether q structure which would float
at least four of lie.
If this raft were dragged around
the point, the tide would set it down
on the schooner. but we had to wait
until 10 o'clock at night to get both
darkness and tide in our favor.
Then | selected three men to accom-
pany me and started off. If Granger
were on the watch, we were sure
to meet with a warm reception, but
crouching low on the raft we drift
ed down on the echooner's broadsido
and were not challenged. Five min
utes after getting aboard we found
him hanging by the neck in the
cabin, and the state of the body
proved he had been dead for hours.
Who was Grangera discovered
that he was not the New York ship
owner of that nalno. He had been
cast on an island, hut the Red King
was not wrecked. Ho HAD proofs
with him in the shape of pearls and
coins, but where was the island7 He
mad paid q round price 10 charter

other object in view than to trick
us. He had over $4,000 in cash
among his effects. and although it
vas turned over to the authorities
at Cape Town they have never
found ac heir &c it. We believed ne
had been a sea captain, but the lists
showed no such man for years past.
No man could say he was insane,
but why did he commit suicidef A
of other questions might be
asked, but they would throw no
light on the mystery. sailed the
schooner back to the cane and made
u report of the Gaze. and though 20
years have passed away the real
identity of the mar has not been es-
tablished or his singular conduct ac-
counted for. That no was an Ameri-

him in the American papers ever

reported the yawl eone. Ali my sus-
picions e now aroused, and the
crowd Of lis started into a run as we
headed back. We reached tho beach
to find the yawi gone, but next mo-
ment we sighted her alongside the
anchored schooner.
AS we were about to hail the craft
we saw Granger and the two men
descend into the boat and shove off
for the beach. His going aboard
aloha was 81 matter to wonder over,
but ! was thinking he might have a
plausible explanation when the boat
touched at a wooded point running
out below us and the two men got
out. We could plainly see and hear
that they were forced out at the
muzzle Of a revolver. AS soon as
they were clear of the boat Granger
threw an oar over and began scull-
ing her hack to the schooner, and
all shouts brought no response
AIOHt IlIlI. NO uIUu Dut u e&llOr
could have used that xculling oar as
he did. and one anil all remarked it.
What sort Of a trick wa he play
ing usi Each man asked this quex-
ton of another, but no one could
answer. When he had returned TO
the schooner alone, his pretense was
that he had forgotten something,
but no sooner had he reached the
deck than he ordered the men into
the boat. AS lie was armed and look
ed dangerous, they did not think it
wise to resist.
