CHAPTER u.
The Girl From prouheda.

Gordon Elliot was too much Of q

morning he was awakened by the
tramp of hurried feet along the deck
to the accompaniment Of brusque or.
ders, together with frequent angry
putting and snorting Of the boat.
From the culver Of the walls he
guessed that the Hannah wns stuck on
q sandbar. The mates language gave
backing to his surmise.
Elliot tried to settle back to sleep.
but after two or three ineffectual eff
forts gave II up. He rose and did one
or two setting-up exercises to Timber
his Joints. The first Of these flashed
the signal to his brain that he was stiff
and sore. This brought to mind the
fight on the hurricane deck, and he
smiled. 1t hurt every time he twiched
a muscle.
The young man stepped to the look.

lip had been cut. and there was q
purple veal well up on his left cheek.
He stopped himself from grinning only
Just In time to save another twinge OF
pain.
"Some party while II lasted. I never
saw more willing mixers. Everybody
seemed anxious to sit In except Mr.
Wally Selfridge." he explained to his
reflection. But Macdonald IL the

Early though he was, one passan'

blue eyes rested or his for an instant

The other clutched the rescued man

"Am II" Macdonald glanced with
mild interest ut the head that had
been until that moment submerged.
"Shows how absent-minded n man gets.
I vas thinking about how he tried to
drown me, I expect"
They dragged the miner aboard.
"Go ahead. I'll swim down." Mac
donald ordered.

mate.
"No. Tn all right"
The Scotsman pushed himself back
from the boat and fell into an easy
stroke. Nevertheless. there was power

lower deck. pushed forward eagerly
