in the cabin on guard, probably with

of figures, in which could not be too
cautious.
The main doubt assailing me had
come from dim suspicion aroused on
the deck by McCann's questioning, and
a sly glance exchanged between him
and Liverpool. Were the fellows really
contemplating making a landing else
where on the Newfoundland coast, in
stead Of at st. Johnsf This was not
impossible. and the fact that 1t would
take us thoroughly by surprise would
appeal to the conspirators. Yet dis

occasionally addressing a remark to
