his bed was within five minutes

He wondered whether her people

had scarcely paused when she
struck the dune. but had shot out
over the gulf like flying gull. They

Why was the trim, speedy look

with the air of an expert.
"And now, madam" said he, "if
you will do me the honor to step

She turned to the captain who,
