CHAPTER XIII.
c.ptaIn FIeIdina's Gospel.

Captain Fteloing's Gospel.
Side by side, upon that great sheep
skin, they sat. those two people. In
the very lap of death. A reasonable
estimate Of their chances would give
them, perhaps, a week to live. With
exceptional fortune, that week might
stretch itself into a month. The great
blue spirit Of the arctic would darken
to purple, and to black. The icy hand
Of the savage polar winter would get
It's clutches upon them. They had
nothing to resist 1t with. No stores OF
ammunition or of food. No clothing
except what they wore. No fuel. save
what they could contrive to gather
along the talus before the winter gales
would make further search impossible.
Neither Jeanne nor Cayley was OF a
sort to face the prospect OF that death
with resignation. They were young,
Intensely alive. and with Jeanne, at
least, the best and biggest part of life
lay, or had lain until yesterday, In .
broad open road before her. But q
prospect like the one that lay before
them brings its W anaesthetic with
IL It was SO utterly hopeless that II
became unreal. The face OF the future'
into which she had cast just n nor
rhed glance, was so hideous that to
the girl. at least, It was like some
monster mask Of carnival-too gro
tesquely horrible to be taken seri-
ously.
That IL partly the reason why she
succeeded in surprising Cayley by sit
ting down to breakfast with him IN
the same mood and spirit which she
had shown before when h did not
know.
I'm about half famished," she said
Is they began their meal. at least
that duck smells perfectly IRE
sistible. It's done to a turn. think
In a way, it's rather a joke that we
should begin our arctic ~privations
with a roast duck"
There's something queer about mat
hut" he said. "something that gets
queerer the more I think about IT,
Why do you suppose the Walrus peo-
pie abandoned II? Or, rather, do you
suppose they did abandon lit They
couldn't have built another house
without dismantling this one. rhere
are no trees on this land to fnrnlsh
timber, and there certainly isn't any
hardware store where they could have
those doors swung on hinges. But
those doors swung on hanges ias'
night and the bolt worked. and, more
or less. the walls and roof kept Out
the gale. For this style of architecture
It's in pretty good repair"
The girl was only half convinced :.
That great heap OF stones in there"
she began, doesn't look like good 70
pair or recent habitation."
No 1t doesn't" he rejoined. III

Listen. Last night. when you were
wing there asleep. I sat thinking,
sinking about you. about the love
sod for you; about the change which
,hat love had made in me and would

faced losing you. I knew that when

II the thing could happen. ! am
a man with a stain upon me. aad yes
tsrday that stain made 1t impossible
to say anything to you but goodby. I
meant to say 1t, and take my way
through the air again and live out the
rest OF my life on what, from your
bounty, you had already given ne.
But the coming of a new day has
changed all that. 1t has given me the
right to tell you what I have told you,
and 1t gives me the right to make that
promise. Isn't that quite plain? Don't
you understands

must let me think"
mo-" he said. II have not asked for
an answer. There 10 nothing that you
have to tell me. Nothing that I'm
waiting to hear. No decision that you
must make. You understand what I
said and you know it's true. The
supreme fact in my universe is
Just you. That gives me the
right to follow you wherever you
70. But you are still free. You
can stay here. where Fate has put you,
and let me stay here, too, being sure
that all the happiness in the world
there is for me is to be found here at
your side, in helping you. And then II
the torture Of privation, loneliness and
despair become too hard"
She turned to him then and inter
rupted. Her words came quietly, un-
accompanied by I'M gesture Of her ex-
pressive hands. She spoke with the
utmost simplicity.
They won't be too hard. I think
neither the %privation nor the loneb'
ness. There won't be any despair
not with you, my friend. And-and
we will follow my fathers gospel"
She saw the blood go ebbing out of
his face. and then come back with a
surge. He drew in two or three great
breaths of the keen. winelike air.
Then, in a strangely matter-of-fact
fashion. he seated himself beside her.
That gospel begins with breakfast"
he said.
