He settled back and blew volume
of smoke from his pipe. For another
half minute the old man continued to
look ut him, his eyes twinkling, and
then he fell to counting again.

well, I'd 60, and very soon, Cap
tain Plum, very soon, indeed. Yes, I'd
hurry!" The old man jumped up with
the quickness of a cat. So sudden
was his movement that 1t startled Cap
tain Plum, and he dropped his tobac-
co pouch. BY the time he had recov-
cred this article his strange compan-
ion was back in his seat again holding
a leather bag in his hand. Quickly
he united the knot at its top and
poured torrent of glttering gold
pieces out upon the table.

gurgled happily. rubbing his thin
hands and twisting his fingers until
they cracked. "A pretty sight, eh. Cap

Why were a hundred guns and ton

his hand over the counting fingers OF
the old man. Their eyes met. And

through them. For an instant he
paused, listening for returning foot
steps, and then with startling agility
darted to the beach and seized the
crumpled letter.
The person who for the greater part
Of the afternoon had been spying upon
Captain Plum from the security OF
the thicket was to all appearances
very small and very old man, though
there was something about him that
seemed to belle a first guess at his
age. His face was emaciated; his hair
was white and hung in struggling
masses on his shoulders; his
hooked nose bore apparently the
infallible stamp Of extreme age.
Yet there was strange and I'M
canny strength and quickness in
his movements. There was no stoop
to his shoulders. His head was set
squareiy. His eyes were as keen as
steel 1t would have been impossible
to have told whether he was fifty or
seventy. Eagerly he smoothed out
the abused missive and evidently sue
ceeded even in the failing light in de-
ciphering much of it, for the glimmer
of smile flashed over his thin fea-
lures as he thrust the paper into his
pocket.
Without a moments hesitation he
set out on the trial of Captain Plum.
A quarter of a mile down the path he
overlook the object of his pursuit.
"Ah, how do you do, sir?" he greet
ed as the younger man, turned about
upon hearing his approach. "A mighty
fast pace you're setting for an old
man, sir." He broke into a laugh
and boldly held out a hand. We've
been expecting you, but-not in this
way. 1 hope there's nothing wrong?"
Captain Plum had accepted the
!, proffered hand It's GOODNESS and the
singular appearance Of the old man
who had come like an appartion
chilled him. In a moment, however, it
occurred to him that he was a victim
of mistaken identity. AS far as he
knew there was no one on Beaver
island who was expecting him. To
the best of his knowledge he was a
fool for being there. His crew aboard
the sloop had agreed upon that point
, with extreme vehemence and to man
,, had attempted to dissuade him from
the mad project upon which he was
launching himself among the Mormons
in their island stronghold. All this
came to him while the little old man
was looking up into his face, chuck
ling, and shaking his hand as if he
were one of the most important and
most greatly to be desired personages
in the world.
Hope there's nothing wrong,
| Cap'n?" he repeated.
Right as trivet here. dad" re-
piled the young man, dropping the

"I'n do i'll! cried Captain Plum. He
Jumped to his feet and held out his
hand But the old man slipped from
his chair and darted swiftly out into
the blackness OF the adjoining room.
AS he came back Captain Plum could
hear his insane chuckling.
Business - business - business -
he gurgled, 'Eh. Captain Plum? Did

a book on the table. 1t was the Bible.

A thrilling inspiration shot into
Captain Plum's brain.

hand. With something that was al
most snarl the old man sprang back,
his hands clenched. II will take this

Again the old man disappeared into

he might clasp both between his bony
fingers. One WAS the Bible. the other
the Book OF the Mormons. In
