BY this time we had reached the

at daylight they would naturally look
for US to the northward if they contin-

What they actually did cannot say,
for we never saw them again.
We held on this strategic course for a
time, and on the second morning rose a
brig coming toward us. and as every
one at sea is presumed rogue until he
is proved an honest man we cleared the
decks for action and beat to quarters
AS the stranger neared us one of Alec's
men recognized her as the brig Catch
all, belonging to Captain Fleming, the
well known freebooter. So as he was
not likely to let such a vessel as our
galleon pass without an overhaul we
quite expected another fight. How
ever, he drew within long hail and
bringing his ship to, signed that he
wished to speak us.
What ships that?"
"The brig Severn of Bristol, Alex

Alec called on me to come on board
