At S o'clock the rain ceased. The
gale was by now brawling somewhere
off the banks.
The river was no longer crested.
Boats were fitting to and fro. and the
sullen big freighters We're drawing out
from the breakwater in the basin back
Of the hotel. A gorgeous sunset lin
ished the day, warm and promising
good weather
The hotel was almost deserted.
1t was not a summer resort Those
who sought it's charms We're fishermen.
They sent their wives elsewhere.
Crawford sat down to dinner with
four other men. two of whom he knew
to be retired business men who tisbed
these waters from July to October and
then hied away to Miami for tarpon
or to the Pacific for yellowtails.
"reminiscences passed back and forth
Crawford learned that the season had
been exceptionally good. but that out
at South bar and Charity shoals the
sport had been the worst in years.
For some reason or other the bass

caught four FOUNDER at Horning

had been plenty of it despite the usual
August blow.
Crawford could not remember when
he had passed more agreeable hour.
The other two gentlemen We're from
down the state.
They told how they split up a
months vacation into four weeks-one
in June, one in July, one i'll August
and one in September, which. If the
weather behaved itself, was the finest
time Of the year to fish.
All agreed upon this point. The
small fry had by then taken themselves
off; the big chaps began to bite, and
they fought like demons.

Another Di!emma-Woman.
@RANFORD followed her down
the narrow, winding staircase.
" Her dizziness was evidently
transitory. for she almost flew
down. and he in his turn grew dizzy in
trying to keep her in view. He was
puzzled.
Hot up there ir the light it undoubt-
eddy was, but the real hurt came from
the reflected brilliancy Of the sun on
the water, and she had fshed closer
to it all the mornin@.
There had been no signs Of dizziness
then. Perhaps, after all. she had not
eaten anything for breakfast. woman

1t never occurred to him that the
sight of the canopied top had thrown
her off her balance. Up here he never

Down below they could see the two
