Scarcely had the boat disappeared In

broke. 1t came with the rush of an ex-
press train--the trees bending before the
squall like reeds. The face OF the river

bare backs of the negroes was distinctly
audible to Victor Durnovo
Then the black clouds split up like n
rent cloth, and showed behind them, not
heaven, but the living fire of hell, The
thunder crashed out in sharp reports like

voice was quite lost, The lightning ran
