CHAPTER Xxx

O'Rourke's first fears were for the
woman, his first words lie designed
to reassure her.
"What-what does 1t mean?" she
gasped family, her face as white az
marble, her eyes wide and terrified
Sure, I'm thinking It's nothing at
all" he answered readily with smile
amending, nothing of any great con-
sequence. that is to say. Permit me to
escort We to your cabin"
I'm not afraid" Mrs. Prynne inter-
jected.
Faith, see that, madam. But your
maid, now? Would 1t not be well
to return to your stateroom and quiet
her, whilst I'm ascertaining the cause
of this trouble? | promise to advise
We instantly, whether there's danger
or not"
You're very thoughtful" she re-
turned. I'm sure you're right. Thank
you"
He escorted her to her stateroom
and left her at the door, remarking its
number and renewing his pledge to
return in ten minutes-more speedily
if possible. He was back in five, with
a long face.
Mrs. Prynne answered instantly his
double-knocked summons and, STEP
ping out quickly, closed the door tight.
In the fraction of second that it was
wide, however, ORourke saw one side
of the stateroom warm and bright
with electric light, and sitting there,
Cecile the maid. completely dressed,
wide awake and vigilant. The girl was
French and sullenly handsome after
her kind. O'Rourke got an impression
of a resolute chin and resolute eyes
under level brows; and he did not in
the least doubt that she was quite pre-
pared to make good and efiectual use
of the revolver which she held pointed
directly at the opening.
Why?
From her mistress poise, too-one
arm rigid at her side, the hand con-
cealed in the folds of her gown
O'Rourke OWNED that she was alert,
armed, on her guard no less than the
maid, But she left him no time to
puzzle over the mystery.
"Well?" she demanded breathlessly.
"'Tis as l thought, Mrs. Prynne. A
cylinder-head has blown off and done
no end of damage. We're crippled. if
in no danger. The other screw will
take us far as Alden, but there we'll
have to wait for the next boat
Mrs Prynne's face clouded with dis
may. How Tonga day or two?" she
demanded.
"Mayhap," he replied, no less dis
consolate; "mayhap as much as
week Faith, it's meself that would it
were otherwise, but fear there's no
mending matters"
She regarded him thoughtfully for
an instant.
Then you, too, travel in haste, colo
nel?"
Indeed | do so, madam. Me for
tune bangs upon me haste. If l get
there"-he checked himself in time,
the word Rangoon upon his iips-"too
late, twill be all up. I'm heavy with
an urgent enterprise, madam" And
he smiled.
The woman looked past him, down
the dusk of the gangway, apparently
bordering her dilemma. What will
you do?" she inquired at length
FAITH" he said, disturbed, that's
hard to say"
She flashed him an ironic look.
you mean you are resigned to the in
evitable?"
BE the powers!" he cried in re-
sentiment, I'm resigned to nothing
that doesn't please me. Is 1t that ye
ask me aid? Sure, If We do, neither
the inevitable nor the impossible shall
keep we from arriving at Bombay, and
on time!"

CHAPTER XIX.

The Wanderer had come upon Mrs.
Prynne but once since he had board
ed the Panjnab. That morning, him
self early astir because of his vague
misgivings, he had discovered her on
the hurricane deck of the liner; an In
conspicuous, slight figure In the shad-
ow of a life-boat, leaning upon the
rail and gazing with Che fanc1ed)
troubled eyes, out and across the
waste below Ismalia.
Though she must have been con-
scious of nearing footsteps, she mad
not stirred, and he had passed on,
gaining but fugitive glimpse or
profile sweetly serious; nor had she
appeared either at breakfast or lunch
con. A circumstance which led him
to surmise that she did not court OBJ
servation: an idiosyncrasy Whlcn
seemed passing strange in a woman
so fair.
He told himself that she wore an
air of watchfulness, of vague expec-
fancy. as though she, like himself,
feared some untoward mishap; that
she had the manner Of one definitely
apprehensive, constantly on guard
against some unforeseen peril.
Now, he asked himself, what could
It be? What threatened her? And
why?
He dimly promised himself the

with still more indefinite intention
of putting himself at her service In
any cause that she might be pleased
to name, Professionally: she must not
interfere with his plans for reaching
Rangoon "in ninety days"
That night he was hoping TO find
the lady at dinner; but though the
ships company was small. he failed
to see her In the saloon, at either the
CAPTAINS, the chief officers or the
doctors table, nor so far as he could
determine, was she taking the air on
deck. Was it possible, then, that he
had been right, that she had reason
eoually as compelling as his own for
secluding herself? Or, was 1t simply
land infinitely more probably that
Mrs. Prynne was indisposed. an ener-
waited victim of excessive heat?
The latter conjecture proved ap-
parently the right one, Mrs. Prynne
failing to appear during the two fol-
lowing days, while the Panjnab was
rocking down the Red Sea channel;
ond O'Rourke grew interested enough
