street bordering on the wharves was
lined with them, wnere Jack when
ashore was wont to leave not only all
his hard-earned dollars, but his manli-
ness and happy disposition, and to be
transformed into a fighting and quar-
relsome brute.
Late on an afternoon, as Captain
Gray and "Scat" were nearing their
landing place, with a party of young
people, Captain Dick Hardaker, full
of bad gin and worse temper, stag
gered down to the wharf, and with
deep-muttered curses watched them
as they prepared to disembark. Years
before Captain Dick had been one of
the towns best-trusted sailing mas
ters and most-respected representa-
tatives but on an unfortunate voyage
had run his ship on the rocks and
lost crew and cargo. In spite of his
personal bravery and proof that the
accident was unavoidable and
through no fault of his, the Scotch
verdict of ''not proven" had been
given, and he had failed to get anoth-
er ship. This and the mishap itself
had soured his disposition and
changed him from a bluff-hearty sail
or, into a drunken, quarrelsome loafer.

standing six feet two inches in his
stocking feet, and was given a wide
berth by all his quondam friends and
shipmates, especially when,> as was
most generally the case, he was under
the influence of bad liquor. The two
captains had been old friends, and had
weathered many a gale together, but
now seldom spoke. That morning
Captain Dick had met the pleasure
party and offered his boat and SER
vices, but his habits were well known,
and his blood-shot eyes bore proof.

drains had failed to rectify. When
ten minutes later the party engaged

or bad whiskey for u.s." Captain Dick
turned away with an angry oath and
muttered that he would take his re-
yenge later. J
