There followed a maniac moment,
when the world was upside down.
Alan's car slipped and skidded, swung

The deep-throated roar OF the loco

He closed his eyes.
Then abruptly the weight was lifted
from his chest. He saw a man drag
ging Rose from under the machine,
and saw that the man was Marrophat.
And almost Immediately someone lift

with two hands beneath his arm pits

Still, not much of the street was

and cast it full force into the midriff

the end OF the wharf.
His fellow followed with less injury.
But Alan had no time TO wonder
whether the man had tripped and
thrown himself in his effort to escape
a second hurting keg, or had turned
coward and fed. 1t was enough that
he had returned, precipitately and
heavily, to the schooner.
The keg, meeting with no resistance,
pursued him even to the deck, where
the force of it's impact split its seams.
None of the combatants, however,
Alan least of all, noticed that the pow
