the first thing we saw was Il ships boat

were two human figures, and one Of
them was a woman, and all around the
boat the sea- was alive with sharks.
They were diving under the craft, run

in other ways to upset it. Had it been
a shore boat it could not have with

AS soon as we caught sight of the
boat the mate ran to call the captain.
BY the time he had arrived the boat

and fastened the painter. Then I got
down to assist him, and We passed up
the bodies-the man first. We might rs
well have dropped him into the sea, for
he had been dead at least twenty-four
hours. AS we lifted up the woman, hav-
ing not doubt that she was also dead,
she moved and uttered groan and
gave us a great fright. We had her on

small boat, which was captains gig.

hoisted up. We found the woman great

at the end Of two or three hours it was
reported that she had fallen into deep
sleep and would probably pull through.
1t may surprise you to learn how
long that castaway female slept. At
intervals the captain raised her head
to administer soup or drink, but not
actually to interrupt her sleep, and she
did not open her eyes till fifty hours
had passed. Then sleep had brought
her fully back to life. 1t was two or
three days later, however, before we
heard her story, or, to our great
amazement, learned that there was no
story to tell. The woman could re-
member nothing Of the past-not even
her name.

Graphic's Daily Story

things have happened on land a dozen
times over. The woman awoke to
lind herself aboard strange ship.
with strange men about her. She was
handsome and we'll formed, English in
looks and speech, but she wore no
jewelry and had neither purse nor
cardcase. When asked how she came
to be at sra with the man in the gig
whether she had visited Madeira or
the Azores - whether she lived in
England or elsewhere-she could tell
absolutely nothing. She began a new
life as she opened her eyes in the cabin
of the Tornado.
To add to the romance, or, rather,
to make a romance of it, our captain
fell in love with the woman, and she
returned the sentiment. She would
have married him ut the end of a few
months. but he dared not chance it.
He fully believed that she Was already
wife and that word must come from
her husband sooner or later. AS for
her. the past was dead. 1t was doubt
ed whether She would remember her
husband if he came to claim her. She
loved as any single woman might love.
When two Years had passed away
and no word had been received Cap
tain Clark and the woman We're mar
ried, and H. took her to Wilmington,
\. G., to reside He made three or four
trips to European ports after that and
then quit the sea and established him
self ashore rs q ship chandler.
One evening four years after the
wedding the captain of an English ship
just in called at the chandler's in the
way of trade. Something happened to
be said about the Azores, and the
stranger at once began sor1owful
story. Six years before while his ship
was at the islands his wife attempted
to return to the ship III the face of a
squall, and the boat was upset and the
occupants lost They found neither
boat nor bodies, but had no doubt
about the calamity. The husband was
nearly crazed with grief and was a
victim of brain fever for many months.
The story was not half told when Cap
tain Clark knew that the woman's real
husband stood before him.
Whether he would have suppressed
the truth or boldly stated it no man
but he can tell, but he was not put to
the trial The climax was curious
one, but in keeping. The stranger, who
gave his name as Burke, was looking
at Captain Clark in puzzled way as
he told his story, perhaps having some
faint intuition of the truth, when
small anchor swinging from beam
above his head broke loose from its
fastenings and fell upon and crushed
the life out of him, and he was dead
with the words of his story yet upon
his lips.
Not word was told the woman, and
she died ten years later without the
mystery having been explained to her.
When the name Burke was mentioned
to her it did not affect her in the
slightest, and no more did the name OF
her husbands ship. The past was so
completely dead to her that she would
positively have refused TO recognize
her husbands claim. M. QUAD.
