leaving Susan alone on the deck. MT. Conant had been waiting for just such an opportunity apparently, for, talk ing advantage of the free cover of the formast, and while some of the ori- ginal crew who were taking the air engaged the attention of the guards, he held up a piece of paper that to Susan's keen vision looked like note.
 Susan Hubbell felt very sorry for Mir. Conant, the more sorry because she found herself in love, with Morn ington. She had hitherto viewed the mates passion for her with indiffer- ence, but now a fellow-feeling made her wondrous kind, and, reveling in though but dlmly comprehending her own emotions, she felt a great pity for the sturdy young American sailor who could never be anything more to her-and perhaps not to any one else
 than the mate of merchantmen of which she was, or had been, the owner
 So that his obvious intent to com municate with her met with a reader response than it would have under other circumstances. At the same time the little note made a powerful appeal to her curiosity.
 Now, her affection for Warrington had not yet been precipitated It was latent inherent, trembling in the bal ance, as it were, but the spiritual req gent had not been infused into her being and she did not yet grasp fully what it meant to her. She was aware of the pleasure she took in his so- ciety and of the delightful emotions that filled her soul at the thought of him. She leaned toward him more and more consciously. In short, her love was like bud which waits the kiss of the sun to burst into flower. And as it had not blossomed yet, it was sometimes more or less in abey- ence.
 The sight of that note checked the flood of her thoughts. The current of her being was turned backward from the man aft poised lightly near the rail, scanning the sea, and the idea of recapture flashed into her mind. It was possible-indeed, it was certain-that Mr. Conant would not risk communicating with her in this way for any slight purpose.
 She rightly divined that should Mornington ascertain that note had been delivered and received his dis pleasure would be compelled, unless false to his duty, to abridge many of the privileges which had made the week so strange and so delightful to her. She was not disloyal to Morning ton, for she had as yet professed no

courage which you must sustain"
 It was . wise appeal. She dashed the tears from her face with the back of her hand and looked up at him, the ghost of a smile flickering upon Ter lips. And she was one of the very few women who look pretty when they ery, he noted.
 You're right" she said, "I'll not do it again. Now, 1 will go and get the papers, but before I do won't you tell me your name?"
 My name is"-he hesitated a mo ment - "Mornington Robert Cecil Mornington, lieutenant in the Royal Navy, lately attached to the Rocking ham and now attached to you-I mean to your ship"
 "Of course. And my name is''-
 "I know. it-Miss Susan Hubbell." :"
 T hope" she said, rising and turn ing toward the cabin, that we may be very good friends, and again I thank you for your kindness"
 She extended her hand to him, and this time, before she divined what he was about to do, he raised it and pressed a longer and more fervent kiss upon it than the ordinary courtesies of life demand.
 It was the first time that any hu- man being had ever kissed Susan Hub bells hand since she was child, and for the third time in the course of an hour she found herself flying the Eng fish colors in her cheek as she re- ceived in astonishment this natural and ordinary salutation of a gentle man of her time.

CHAPTER XI.
The Ruse and the Letter.

Days passed and while the ship sped as swiftly as the winds permitted toward the shores of England, these two drifted into position from which 1t might presently be impossible for them to escape. The idyl is old, and it took its natural course. The ship sailed true to it's compass, and the lovers drifted, giving no thought to final havens.
 Into this sea paradise there entered, not the serpent, but a subtitle sugges- tion from MT. Owen Conant.
 Several times, regarding himself in honor bound to do so, Mornington had sent for him and repeated his offer of quarters in the cabin, subject to the mates parole. Each time the of- fer had been disdainfully refused, greatly to the prizemaster's satisfac- tion.
 On these occasions MT. Conant had enjoyed the opportunity of exchang- ing brief word with Susan Hubbell, which in common courtesy Morning ton could not prevent, though he would have liked to do so.
 From time to time also MT Conant, when permitted with a few other prisoners to take air forward, had ob- served the woman he loved and the man he hated pacing the quarterback side by side.
 The feelings of MT. Conant may be imagined. He was desperate, to put it mildly, and was resolved to stop at nothing to recapture the ship, domi- nate the English officer, and take that position he fancied to be his ln the heart of Susan Hubbell
 She herself was pointedly mindful of his situation. She was not one to forget an old friend, and she had not hesitated to wave her hand or nod to him when she found him looking at her from the forward end of the ship.
 One day, something like a week af- ter the capture, it happened that Warrington was surveying the hori- zon through the glass and the vigi- lant MT. Merryfield had turned toward him in obedience to some remark,
