CHAPTER XXI

Shortly after noon that day a
curious change came over the sea.
Suddenly, as it seemed to us, a
heavy cloud slid across the sun,
and the glare Of the tropic day was
instantly transformed into an
ominous twilight. Almost at the
same time strange little singing
breezes blew across the ship, while
that portion of the sea which could
be seen through the small aperture
grew lark and angry.
"a squall," said Hayling.
But it was something more than
squall. When the first blow
struck her, the old ship staggered
and ratified like crazy locomotive;
but instantly righting herself she
darted forward with a hiss and a
roar. Then suddenly the sky grew
black and down came the rain and
the wind, the one stunning de-
luge, the other roaring like a thing
gone mad. Quite a rattle the big
drops made as they crashed down
on deckhouse and deck, and Ethel,
who stood beside me watching the
storm. whispered excitedly:
81 shouldn't like to be in that"
At first it seemed as though Hay
ling's representation would prove
correct, and that this visitation
would resolve itself into a fierce
tropical squall; for after the rain
has ceased the wind seemed ito die
away. Yet seemed only; for Sudden
ly it veered towards the southwest,
and after few preliminary puffs
blew steadily and furiouslY. Like
magic the seas rose. and the Pulo
Way Immediately felt them. She
ratified and rolled and pitched, and
even seemed to moan like "a senti-
ent being; and as we wefe right
over the screw, which raced horri-
bly,. the discomfort of our position
was increased tenfold.
During the whole of that night
the storm ragel furiously, and
throughout the long tempestuous
hours Hayling and l took it in turns
to watch. But for all the molesta-
ton we suffered we might just as
well have gone to sleep. Outside in
the black night the wind scream
ed and painted viciously; beneath
us swirled and ratified the horried
screw; but the crew, like prudent
men, kept to their quarters. In
deed, the elements fought bravely
for us on this occasion.
Towards morning the wind
ceased altogether, the sea rapidly
subsidized, and daylight broke late
through thick, white fog. For
ward of us tie deckhouse was
family outlined, though had we not
known it to be there, we might
have doubted the accuracy of our
vision. Nothing else was visible.
and apparently no one was moving;
but by the quicker throb of the
screw | knew Luiz had taken adj
vantage of the smoother water. Oc-
casionally long wave broke with
a sullen roar; fitful gust of wind
came signing out of the mist. For
the rest, there was heavy, omin-
GUS stiffness, which was almost
painful.
Suddenly saw Hayling bend
closer towards the aperture, and
by his attitude | knew that he was
trying to hear more than to see. /,
too, listened-listened intently. Yet
l heard nothing but the crunch Of
the screw, the noise of the water.
