CHAPTER XX.-CONTINUED.

"Give me hand" painted, for now
my overtasked strength was going,
and sank to the length of my arm.
"Aye. aye!" he cried, heartily. and
with that he clapped down and locked
his fingers about my wrist. Mastering
the remnants Of my strength, made q
supreme effort, and with one able
founder tumbled over the rail and fell
into the sternsheets.
"Good!" exclaimed a composed and
| familiar voice. IL was coming to be1 r
a hand. but a weeping from this in
convenient cut got into my eyes and
hindered me. believe that settles all,
| and quite to our minds!"
Thank God!" I righted myself and
burst out. is it indeed you, Mr. lynn.
and has everything gone so glorious
'y?"
got to face him with the words, and
though still dizzy and weak, was able
to determine the whole excellent mat
ter for myself.
It was quite as he, said. The last buc-
cancer in arms had disappeared, and
above the prone bodies the senorita
was looking from the cuddy, and Mac
Ivrach was just by, getting the steadi-
ness of his legs. The only hurt that
showed upon him was an inconsder-
able bruise near the top of his fore
head.
Turning back, then, to Capt. Sell
niger. who had previously seemed so
severely dealt with, was delighted to
find that he showed no more than two
or three superficial wounds. The
greatest was cut down one side of his
head. which had made considerable
blood run and given him his first shock
ing appearance. I noted, however,
that his steel breastpiece was severe
ly battered, as though it had pretty
certainly protected him from more
sinister attempts, and his pot helmet,
which lay on the deck, was split in
twain at the crest.
l finished my inspection with Mr..
Tym, but now with less anxiety, for ]
had seen in the first hasty glance that
he had been but lightly dealt with. A
cut across the forehead, which had
caused the dripping of blood he had
mentioned, but which was manifestly
not deep. seemed the extent of his
hurts. AS soon as might be meant to
ask him how he had managed his de-
liverance. and in what fashion he had
turned the tables on CRADLE, but just
now a still more pressing question re-
manned to be answered. This was, of
course, what had become of the rest of
the buccaneers. and how far it was Ger
tain we were done with them. It will
be understood that the determination
of my companions injuries required
but moment, and, in fact, took no
longer than while I was getting the
steaGiness of my head after tumbling
into the boat. l now found some
strength in my legs, and with a lurch
managed to gain my feet, looking
eagerly over the rail as did so, and
was at once satisfied, yet almost con-
founded with what l saw. The buc-

state, which must make She task too
great-and in the end the sloop was
suffered to drift.
My companions now had an oppor-
tunity to see to their wounds. and it
was found that Mr.. Tym's long cut and
the cash over the captains ear needed
a few stitches. Luckily Mae Ivrach
had housewife, and though it was
now nearly dark got out thread and
needle and managed to do rough job
of surgery.
This ended, we concluded to have
supper. there being no immediate dam
ger and we standing in need of refresh
1nent after what we had been through.
Mac Ivrach accordingly got out the
| provisions and opened bottle of wine,
and we fell to, our appetites not seem
perience. While we were eating de-
sired Mr.. lynn to tell me how he had
escaped from CRADLE; likewise what
had given the buccaneers their final
fright, causing them to quit the boat.
"A very short story" he answered.
1T might almost be summed up by say
ing that our friend CRADLE was care
less. You see, he flung me to the deck
and drew his knife, having dropped his
sword as he closed, and bent over me
to end my troubles. I, as it CHANGED.
! had cleared my arm dagger, and when
he thoughtlessly stopped over !
reached up and did that for him he
had intended to do for me. Then one
of the other fellows made toward me,
and just at the moment the captain
rose and charged them in the rear.
The man about to fall upon me pulled
up, and I fetched scramble and
gained my feet. With that the three
fellows lost heart and jumped over
board. That is the whole bigness Of
the matter, except that have forgot
ten to say that Paul CRADLE showed
further his inconsiderateness by fetch
ing such jump, as proddcd him. that
he fell overheard. cannot be certain,
therefore, whether killed him or he

escape" ! said, with a long breath.
"Aye, and very like for us all, for had
you not dispatched CRADLE there is no
saying what would have happened. I
fear Mac Ivrach and would have APP
peared too late on the scene, and
the captain was dangerously over
matched"

coming of wind, but perceived neither,
and without further delay fell to
| work.
l should remark here that we might
be supposed to have some fears lest
| the buccaneer should send another
boat, and this was at first true, but
now we had pretty well decided that
she had dispatched the sole one she
Lad, a thing the more credible as she
must have sailed at exceeding short
notice.
We stood on no ceremony in dis
posing of the bodies, the captain mere
ly stopping to strip one of helmet
to take the place of his own broken
one, WHICH done, we tumbled the re-
mains hastily over the rail. A few
buckets of water were then drawn
and dashed over the deck, and the
disagreeable business was ended. We
had already determined to run the
sloop for the coast, for the wind did
not spring up, favoring the ship, or
if it did and she did not choose to pur
sue, we could then fetch out; but if
she should follow we co. Id hope to
beat her to the coast.
Mr.. lynn and the captain had al
ready tied up their wounds, Mac
Ivrach's needing no attention, and
when the boat was ready the Scotch
man and sat down to the oars. We
were in no case for hard work, but de-
sired to be making start, it being
uncertain, indeed, how long this ia
voring calm would hold.
Though we were so near the surface
of the water, and therefore COM
manded no great range of distance, it
seemed long time that we were drop
ping the buccaneer. But at last we
sank his hull and then his lower sails.
and finally the topgallants dwarfed to
an insignificant speck on the sea line.
The day was by this time nearly spent,
and the even reds of the tropic sun
set began to flush the west. A fair
weather paleness of blue appeared
above these colors, and the sky COM
ing down to it darkened without
clouds, presaging stars and calm as
on the previous nights.
We were near enough now, as !
thought, to make out the coast, and
asked Mac Ivrach to give over rowing
while took an observation. proved
to be right, for distinct on the eastern
boundary was a dark, well-marked
line.
BY this time the Scotchman and l
were pretty weary-he, indeed, hardly
able to wag the heavy oar-and pro-
posed short rest. Mr.. lynn and the
captain offered to spell us, but / OBJ

stood staring over the rail. But pres
emily my companions began to speak,
and this brought me back to my bal
ance. and ! turned again to them. The
senorita was coming out of the cuddy,
and clambered over the bodies,to her
and drew hec to little open space
where she could stand.
She was woefully pale, yet seemed in
brave way to control herself, though
she broke down for bit as steady

said. Wonder are the miserable relics

voice. AFTER all that has happened,
I can scarce think or reason. All. but
it was horrble! The cries and the
blows, the scraping of dying mems feet.
and the Earring of the falling bodies!
And above all was the suspense! Oh,
that suspense, senior, and in especial at
only to thank you-you, and your
brave companions. You are such he

NAY, senorita. you praise us beyond
our merits" answered, depre cat ingly.
(In truth, I felt thrill of pleasure at
her words.) 1--WE did, grant, make
u pretty sturdy fight, but beyond that
there is no call for praise. Having un-
dertaken your defense at first, we could
not afterward, save as very poltroons,
abandon you, and in our own behalf
we did not prefer the sword or bullets
to torture"
But she would not have it So and in
sisted that we had first risked all in

that this was piece of heroism to
match it, adding Ito my surprise) that

think our dialogue might have
gone on a moment or two longer, for
I was quite satisfied to fare SO poorly
in the argument, when l saw that my
companions had begun to take steps
toward clearing the boat, beginning
with drawing aside the bodies, and
I hastily broke off and joined them.
By this time the three swimmers
had reached their boat, and were now
pulling sluggishly toward the ship,
she hanging calm-bound as before.
