CHAPTER xxXNl.
The Last of the Namur.

ne Last or the NaHiuF.
 The vessel was plainly a total wreck, rapidly pounding to death on sharp ledge of rock. Both 'masts were down, and. lifted as the bow was, It was easy to perceive the deck was in splinters where falling Spars and topmaSts had crushed their way through. The bows had caught, seemingly damned in be, tween rocks, the stern sunk deep, with cabin port holes barely above reach Of the waves. Not a living thing appeared on board, and, as the fog slowly drifted away, my eyes could discern no sign of any beat, no evidence of the crew, along the wide sweep of water. A voice aroused me.

The man was a repulsiye brute, his face stained with blood, dripping from a cut across his low forehead. He looked up sullenly at our approach, but made no effort to rise.

 The seaman. who was standing with holowed hands. shading his eyes. star ing forth into the swirling drapery of fog. turned at my call and pointed ex- citedly.

 Even as I crossed the deck to his side the wreaths of obscuring mist seemed to divide. as though swept apart by some mighty hand, and there in the fuil glow of the sun, picture in a frame, lay the wrecked vessel. Others saw 1t as did, and gave vent to recognition.
